Matthew Halliwell, wedding in Harrogate – July 2014.

“Just wanted to say how absolutely fantastic you and your band were on Sunday. It really couldn’t have been any better! Even hotel guests who weren’t at the wedding but had taken a sneak peak were asking us for your contact details the next morning. Once again, thank you very much for such amazing entertainment!”

Vlod and Olenka, wedding – London – June 2014

Dear Chris,

what a fantastic day in all senses of the word.

I’m so glad that I booked your band, people are still talking about it today. It made a memorable and special day even better.

The fact that you were able to transpose our Ukrainian music into my key and have it so beautifully played by your pianist was truly fantastic and special and made it seem effortless for us to perform in front of our guests. People though we had rehearsed the song with you before.

All of the band and singer were of the highest caliber, both in musicianship and appearance… very stylish and accomplished performance that got peoples toes tapping and onto the dance floor.

Thank you so much for the effortless and stress free way in which you handled the booking from start to finish. Everything was perfect.

Kind regards

Vlod and Olenka

Hi Chris and the Mini Big Band.
A huge thank you for making our wedding party extra special. The band was amazing, having eleven of you in the line up was a real wow factor.
The style of the music was just perfect, everyone commented on how professional you were yet you still had so much fun with it.
Wish we could hire you guys every week.
Thanks again,
L.O.V.E.
