We had the absolute pleasure of The Junos playing our wedding at Priston Mill, Bath on Friday evening, they were outstanding! We had a several musicians as guests at the wedding and they all told us how amazing you guys were. From first contact to the night itself, you guys were great and such lovely people when we finally met you. Thank you so much for making our special day that little bit more special - see you at Victorious next weekend for more dancing!
