Alex Narramore – Barns and Yard, August 2021

My partner & I decided to hire the Mini Big Band for our (admittedly small!) wedding – purely down to the high quality we saw in their videos and our love of good music. We were absolutely blown away by the talent and charisma from the band (as were all of our guests – nobody wanted the night to end!) The whole team were SO professional and amazingly talented, they beat our very high expectations by a mile! I really can’t recommend this band enough – Chris, Jon, Roman, Andi and all the team truly made our wedding perfect. Thank you!

James Toyne – Sibton Park, Suffolk – August 2021.

What a great bunch of musicians. Out of all of the many suppliers that we had for our wedding day, Chris, on behalf of the Mini Big Band was by far the stand out in terms of ease and confidence of booking from the very beginning. Clear, timely communication, every detail accounted for, a really open and honest method to booking and obviously fair and genuine people made choosing TMBB a no-brainer. Their music speaks for itself, I think if anything the previews and the clips that they have on their website undersells the performance on the big day and the atmosphere they create. I don’t think anyone in our crowd of 125 didn’t have a boogie and enjoy every minute of their set. Extremely impressed with the quartet that we had arranged for earlier in the day, again they added to the atmosphere of the earlier reception without adding significantly to the cost. The most outstanding point to note is the arrangement they made of our first dance on our request (an arctic monkeys cover), it was extremely well performed and made a naturally very poignant moment even more so. We really were over the moon with these guys from the outset. 11/10 will not dissapoint.

Steve Allmark – Sandhole Oak Barn, Cheshire. March 2022

Just a note to say how utterly fantastic the Mini Big Band were at our wedding. From the very first email asking about the bands availability, to the Trio setting a lovely vibe as we had drinks after our ceremony , to the full band swinging at our reception, the experience was effortless and amazing. Chris and the guys are true professionals and lovely guys to deal with. It was my dream to have a swing band at my wedding and the Mini Big Band did not disappoint. For them to play my favourite song while my new wife and I had our first dance was truly mind blowing. Nothing was to much trouble and every communication with them was prompt and professional. Everyone at our wedding said how amazing they were and for massive Rat Pack fan, it was a dream to listen to them all night. If you’re reading this and thinking of booking these guys, do it. They are amazing and truly made our special day even more special. I can’t thank Chris and the guys enough. You made our day !!! Steve and Nicole Allmark

Steve and Nicole’s wedding. Sandhole Oak Barn, Cheshire.

This was our first time performing at Sandhole Oak Barn for Steve and Nicole’s stunning wedding, and what a great venue this is. With a stunning sunset over the lake, this really did feel like the start of our Summer wedding season, in March…

It was great also to have a grand piano on site and to be able to use this as part of our performance. Always a nice touch.

An amazing day for a lovely couple! Thanks for having us on board Steve and Nicole.

All the best, The MBB x

This can set the perfect atmosphere for reception drinks or throughout your meal. With a set list featuring hits from Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai, Amy Winehouse, Marvin Gaye, Gregory Porter, Bill Withers, all performed in a laid back acoustic jazz style, it really is the perfect way to entertain your guests.

It was great to see these photos of the trio in action for Rachaels wedding at the stunning Middleton Lodge.

The Mere Golf resort and Spa.

It was great to be back at the fantastic Mere Golf Resort and Spa for Daniel and Pooja’s fantastic wedding celebrations. This was an amazing Irish/Indian wedding with a mixture of musical styles throughout the day; from a traditional Irish band to our classic swing to an Indian DJ to finish the evening off. It was great for us to be able to perform a more Cabaret style show throughout the day topped of by helping Daniel sing a song to his wife at the end of his speech.

A fantastic day and an absolute pleasure to be part of your celebrations. All the best guys!
