"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to your team and the band! They were absolutely fantastic! The energy they brought to our wedding is something I will remember for the rest of my life. They even had my Dad (71) dancing all night, something he said he’s never done before.

Thanks,

"Hi guys,

I just wanted to get in touch to say a massive thank you for playing at the wedding. We had such a great day and you guys were absolutely brilliant. Me and Elizabeth both agreed that one of our favourite parts was our first dance and you guys did a terrific job to make it so special.

I am sure we will see you all again at one of our summer parties in Suffolk.

Have a great summer guys.

Thanks

Nick and Elizabeth"
