Happily they were and we went about planning the day's music. The couple opted for an acoustic duo as the venue wasn't able to have any amplified music at all, and also the first set was performed on</span> their wedding bus! All the wedding guests were treated to a tour of London on Marieke &amp; David's wedding bus and so our duo got everyone in the party mood and singing along whilst seeing the sights.</p><p>The remaining sets were performed at <a alt="The Phene" href="http://www.thephene.com" target="_blank" title="The Phene">The Phene</a> over dinner and then into the evening. A fabulous wedding with a the bus tour making it really unique, an absolute pleasure to be involved in.

As everything went so quickly I didn't get a proper chance to say thank you, so a belated email to do this.

From the first point of contact, until the very last moment of our wedding reception, you were all so supportive, helpful and professional. Your sound and timing was perfect and the dance floor was packed all night, with all our friends and family absolutely loving the music. I can't tell you how many people complimented you all, the song choices, <span>the timing, the depth of sound. We had the most amazing evening thanks to you all, and I would recommend you to anyone looking for a top class band for any event. We also booked your DJ to play in breaks and before and after the band's sets, and he was faultless, ending our night with people dancing until the speakers went silent. My only insistence for our wedding plans, had been to have a live band, specifically 21st Century Riot, and you helped us achieve the wedding day we longed for. I can't thank you all enough. We wish you every success and prosperity!'</span></span></p></div></div>

We were NOT disappointed. The communication between Helen, their manager and Jay the lead singer was faultless, they discussed every detail and made sure all our requirements were met, nothing was too much trouble. </span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-size:10pt;"> </span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-size:10pt;">We weren’t at the venue at the time of their arrival and setup but everything was in place at the given time and the DJ had just started. The band/DJ were polite, friendly and well presented. Their sound was amazing, a lot of cover bands just do not get it right, this is something you cannot say about this band. They were rocking right from the very first song. Their mix of older and newer was very well balanced, so all ages were on the floor having a great time.  </span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-size:10pt;"> </span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-size:10pt;">We can honestly say that they well exceeded our expectations. We have had numerous texts come through saying what a brilliant evening it was and where did we find them! They were worth every penny, entertainment is the most important thing to ensure an event goes well and we couldn’t have asked for a more successful evening.</span></i></p><p></p></div></div>
