A Yorkshire Home blog feature.

It was fantastic to be a part of this amazing wedding last year and reading this blog http://www.ayorkshirehome.com/lifestyle/how-to-plan-a-wedding-in-3-months/ about the day, we had no idea it was all planned in 3 months!  Amazing work.

It was also really special to be asked to play for Heathers sisters wedding also, a few months later.

 

Good look with the house work Heather and Paul.

The Love Heart Ball – Leeds, February 2016.

Hi Chris. The Mini Big Band were the PERFECT choice for our event and for the venue. The band were superb, we had great feedback from
our guests and would no hesitations in booking you again or recommending to others.
The Children’s Heart Foundation are having their 30 year anniversary shortly and are thinking that an Aspire/Mini Big Band combo will be a winner!
By the way, I miscalculated the amount raised for the Childrens Heart Surgery Fund – it was actually £31k !
Please pass on our thanks to all of the boys.

Hi Chris,
Sorry sorry for only replying now, we went away on our mini moon… didn’t want to converse with anyone but my Husband!!

Oh my goodness. Where to start…… YOU GUYS WERE UTTERLY INCREDIBLE.
THANK YOU THANK YOU for everything. Seriously.
We absolutely ADORED it. EVERYONE has been complimenting you all.
It was perfect.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Also for allowing my brother to sing… my gorgeous hubby to serenade me … and I want to apologise for my shouting!!!! Not singing!! Please say sorry to your amazing singer!
I just got carried away!!! Ha!!!

My thoughts about the band…. too many positives to say here…. I’d sound weird if I continued to compliment you… over the top etc!
You were incredible. Service amazing. Out of this world.

We need another party with you guys playing.

THANK YOU again from Andy and me.
Please pass this on to all of the Mini Big Band members.

You are the best and MADE our wedding party.

Thank YOU Chris
