Quote from happy couple Rachel & James - "Not to mention your meticulous attention to detail leading up to the day itself – a breath of fresh air with so many moving parts to juggle – thank you!!"
I have been the bass player and manager of the Blunter Brothers since 1988. That's 35 years so far! I've gained a lot of experience in the wedding industry and played a variety of different style events from Blenheim Palace to your back garden. I like to chat with my clients about their requirements and then endeavour to help create the perfect day.

I think you guys were fabulous

I was one of the two photographers at the wedding at Blenheim Palace. Just to say I really enjoyed your music, I think you guys were fabulous. I see a different band at a wedding almost every Saturday, and you really stand out. Kindest Regards Wolf.

Consummate professionals

"Dave and the band were absolutely outstanding at my wedding. The guests were as blown away as I was and several have already requested their details for their own events. Dave took all the stress out of the build-up and I was able to simply leave them to it on the day - consummate professionals; flexible, detailed and responsive. Most importantly, very talented musicians and performers who helped make the evening memorable for guests of all ages."

You made it the memorable evening I wanted

Everyone, and as you saw we had all ages there, were blown away by you guys and I just keep getting comments about how incredibly good the band was! You made it the memorable evening I wanted it to be, no doubt about it! . . . and what a great bunch you all are. We spoke to several band members during the break and all were really nice and seemed to be genuinely enjoying themselves! I will have no hesitation in recommending The Blunter Brother to anyone who wants the best!. . .
