Lyrebirds were the perfect choice for our Wedding day! Rami and Jess are both very talented and they were able to create the exact vibe we wanted for our big day. All our guests loved them and had a brilliant time dancing to their music. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they made a huge effort to ensure we were happy on the day. Communication leading up to the day was also great. Would highly recommend and hope to meet them again in the future.

Really pleased we booked Lyrebirds and will consider them for future events. They fitted the brief perfectly and the guests were very complimentary. We had circa 60 attendees at an after work networking event. Many thanks!
