Customer questions

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

We sometimes use a deposit singer but only people we know and have sung with us before.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes, we can offer a smaller 6 piece band without the horn section which reduces the cost.

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

We'll always try our best to be flexible and are used to wedding timings changing on the day because of speeches etc.

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

We have an auto DJ that can provide background music before we start, dance music in between sets etc.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up in about 2 hours but always like more time if possible. For weddings we often set up early before proceedings start to allow for the wedding breakfast to take place without us being there etc.

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

Yes & we can do requests depending on the song and time to practice before you're event. Our set lists have worked really well for many years so we suggest changing just a few that are special to you.....

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes, we have a professional PA, Lights and a sound engineer.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Very possibly depending on the song. If its a popular one we probably already have it in our set list.
