FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My own! My husband (bandleader Decent Chaps) even had to play at his own wedding.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Open, friendly, approachable, good fun, reliable

What about your business are you most proud of?

Our 100% feedback and testimonials and repeat bookings

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Plan early and just think of it as a big party for friends and family - if things go wrong, laugh it off and just enjoy the day.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Get to know them, ask what they're hoping with timings etc and advise best and cheapest way for them to book music - sort out what sort of music they like and also advise on First Dance as most couples hate this bit!

What makes a romantic first dance?

Difficult this, but definitely don't make it too long or pick something too 'dreary' - many couples have regretted choosing something that they really like listening to on their own, but doesn't quite work in front of lots of people.

What is your number one floor-filler?

Gosh - so many, but one of the ones that they repeatedly get asked for is "King of the Swingers" !!

Which band from the past would you most like to have been part of?

Earth Wind and Fire is one of many.

What is the soundtrack to your life?
