Overall good. I liked the outfits. They were a bit late to arrive. Music was fun, good for oktoberfest vibes

Hey Gen, thanks for the kind words. I'm a bit confused about the late arrival though - they arrived at security at 18:00 as agreed, but were delayed by a 20 minute wait there, and were then sent to the wrong building by on-site staff which is obviously outside of our control. They were still ready to play by 19:00, so if this has influenced your star rating I feel this is unfair.

Hosen Brass were amazing!! They did a surprise hour set for our wedding guests, and it made our big day even more memorable. They really took into consideration our personal taste when creating a set list, but also included some big crowd pleasers (their Ibiza medley was just incredible!) I couldn’t recommend them more!
