They were great, the dj however interrupted the first dance asking us if we wanted people to come on with us, should have been asked before it. now the videos of our first dance have him talking over it

What an incredible band. We had our wedding on Saturday and from the moment the band began, the dance floor was full. Everybody commented on how amazing they were. Song choices were spot on for our guests, and we danced the night away. My only regret was that I didn’t get chance to speak to them when they arrived or left. One of the most enjoyable, professional, talented bands I have ever had the pleasure of dancing to. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our wedding so special. Peaky Playlisters - don’t hesitate to the book them. You won’t regret it. With love Amy and Dan

Absolutely fantastic band! Everyone at our wedding commented on how good you all were, and a personal thank you from us both, for singing our first dance song too. We had an amazing day and you finished the evening celebrations off perfectly. Can't recommend enough.
