  1. booked Sambinha Jazz Band for a private event

    Verified

    This was a good band and nice people and the lead singer has a great voice, but they were really quite late. They were sue to start playing at 7.30 (so they suggested 7pm arrival as very quick set up), but they arrived at about 8 and didn’t start until about 8.10 which meant that much if their set was played once the guests were already seated for dinner so they didn’t hear or appreciate it. They did let us know they were going to be late once when they were stuck in traffic but for an event like this I think you have to leave masses of time ti ensure arriving on time. Great band, but a shame not many people would have heard them so a bit wasted…

    Jasmine was brilliant. Really great in the build up ensuring that she knew exactly what we were after and then her playing on the day was beautiful and got what we wanted spot on.

    We couldn’t have been happier with Rachel and Dominic for our recent wedding. All our guests loved the music and we heard so many positive comments about the great atmosphere created after dinner. They had us up on our feet for the faster tunes! Totally recommend them x

    I can't thank Caroline enough for performing at our wedding. The team are incredibly talented, so helpful and quick to respond to any questions, and really made the ceremony so special (even when we thought we might have to move it inside because of the rain)! Five stars in everything - would definitely hire them again for any future event :)

  8. booked Severn Duo for a wedding

    Verified

    Honestly we were not overly impressed with Severn Duo. The week of our wedding we were told they had double booked our wedding, so one of the duo would play each wedding with a different musician. Not ideal when you think you’ve specifically booked a DUO. I also don’t actually think either of the duo did play our day from the brief looks of them I got, but I may be wrong on that point. We were clear from the beginning of the booking process our ceremony was outdoors. Concern had never been raised by Severn Duo, however an hour before the ceremony, as I was literally getting into my wedding dress, I had voicemails and missed calls from them saying if it was too sunny they wouldn’t play outside or if it was raining they wouldn’t play outside due to their instruments. This is understandable, but if we had been told this prior to an HOUR BEFORE THE CEREMONY then we could have arranged for a gazebo etc to be erected to solve any issue. When they couldn’t get hold of me, they apparently had quite cross words with the venue manager. Their alternative was they would play an MP3 recording of our aisle music. In addition, our best man had to remind them they were paid to play from midday as at 12.10 they were just sat in their seats chatting as our guests arrived, and honestly looked generally miserable throughout the ceremony. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone looking for wedding music - the last thing a bride needs an hour before the ceremony is more stress and you’d think they’d understand this if they were experienced wedding suppliers.
