Vicky and Alex – The Normans York

Hi Chris

We wanted to say thank you so much to you and the band for an absolutely amazing evening of music on Saturday.

A lot of our guests are musicians and we were all SO impressed with the standard of the band. Luke’s voice is just amazing and the band was so tight and full of energy. Luke was great at working the dancefloor and getting the crowd up and dancing.

You honestly made the evening! We are so glad we booked you! An absolute must. We will treasure the memories of our friends having an amazing time on the dancefloor forever.

Thanks Chris also for being so helpful and responsive during the wedding planning and answering all our questions, it was much appreciated.

We’ll send a few photos through once our photographer has edited them and sent us the full set.

Many thanks again.

Clare and Pauls Marquee wedding.

Here’s some stunning photos from Clare and Pauls amazing Sperry Tent wedding in Yorkshire.

This set up was amazing!  Beautiful rustic tables, stunning copper table ware mixed with an amazing cocktail bar surrounded by a cushioned chill out area.

Clare’s father was a professional jazz bass player so it was an absolute pleasure to be asked to provide the music for their special day.  This was clearly a very important area of the day for both the bride and groom and their families.

We had a blast.  Lots of dancing and laughter, who could ask for more!

All the best guys,

Katie and Nathan’s Yorkshire Barn wedding.

We are often booked for to play at weddings by people who have seen the band before at other events, which is fantastic and a real acknowledgement of our performances.

However for Katie and Nathan’s wedding, this is the 4th time that Katie’s family have booked The Mini Big Band for family events, which is truly amazing and a real honour and privilege for us!

A perfect summers day in the heart of Yorkshire in the most stunning venue, Bolton Abbey’s fantastic Tithe Barn.  Perfect.

All the best guys!
