David's Reviews

thank you for playing at our wedding. We had the best evening.

We had a fantastic time and so did our guests, they absolutely loved the idea of the DJ, Bongo drums and the saxophonist such a different idea and they said it was the best wedding reception that they have ever been to. The Bongo drums and saxophone added a different dimension to the entertainment rather than just a DJ playing some songs, it made it much more of a party feel. The dance floor was never empty the whole night, I think the fact that every woman had their shoes off is a real testament to how much people loved to dance!! You and the rest of the band/ team were also very professional throughout.
