Sara & Matt were perfect for opening up our wedding party. They played songs we requested and there were good comms running up to the party. They took care of everything and we were able to enjoy our party and leave them to play lovely music. Would recommend

We got married on 23rd October and booked The Two Of Us for two 45 minute slots. They were amazing on the day and prior to the day their communication was excellent. So helpful with song choices and we can’t recommend them highly enough. If you book them you will not be disappointed. Thank you for making our wedding day extra special.

Sara & Matt performed a gorgeous set at my birthday party the other week... the perfect balance of sophistication and class balanced with warmth and light-hearted entertainment! Would definitely book again.

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We always try to be flexible when we can! Just let us know and we'll see what we can do.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely! No problem, and we'd most likely do this for free depending on how long you'd need us there for.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 hour before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Absolutely, we're happy to take song requests. If you have quite a few, we'll add on a small fee, but we're happy to do the first 2-3 for free!
