Tim SaxDJ
"We cannot thank Tim enough! He kept all the guests entertained through out the whole wedding day. He performed the sax during the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast with many recognisable songs which kept ourselves and the guest well entertained. Tim was also our DJ for the reception and wow! Our friends and family did not leave the dance floor! He understood the crowd and also handed out song request slips which my guests loved! Thankyou so much Tim! I highly recommend as not only a saxophonist but also a brilliant DJ!!"

Sunday Avenue
"We had the pleasure of booking Sunday Avenue for our wedding, and they were absolutely fantastic! David, the guitarist, and Aimee, the singer, were a perfect pairing, offering a brilliant mix of music from the 1950s all the way through to the present day. Their performance was seamless, with a great variety of songs that had everyone enjoying themselves throughout the event.
Both were incredibly professional, arrived on time, and set up quickly and efficiently. Aimee’s voice is simply stunning, and David’s guitar playing added the perfect touch to every song. The atmosphere they created was warm and lively, and they had something for every guest to enjoy, no matter their musical taste.
We received so many compliments from our guests, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly for any event. Sunday Avenue truly made our special day unforgettable. Thank you, David and Aimee!"
