"We have had the delight of working with The Ambrassadors on two occasions and on both occasions, they have provided us with first class entertainment. They have the perfect music for a variety of occasions. Thanks to the guys for bringing so much to our hospitality and events and we can't wait to work with them again!"

"We just wanted to drop you an email and say thank you so much for your set at our wedding. It was so energetic, so well rehearsed and absolutely the perfect way to get our party started. We've had so many compliments off everyone saying how good you were. In fact, you brought my grandad to tears. He absolutely loved you. Once again, on behalf of Lucy and I, we'd like to thank everyone involved. You absolutely smashed it. You really were an inspiration. Thank you so so much. Kindest regards, Vicki & Lucy"

"Hi Jonathan, I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the band for Saturday night. The band played brilliantly and they created such a lovely atmosphere for the drinks reception. Please could you pass on a massive thank you to everyone? I also have a card for them which I meant to hand over on Saturday but didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to them. Shall I send this to you to pass on? The wedding went really well and our clients couldn’t have been happier. It was an absolute pleasure working with you and we look forward to doing so again soon"

"The boys were absolutely great. Right Grand!! I’ll give you a “write up” in the next few days. Would it be possible to have a list of the numbers they played for memories sake or as many as they can remember? Also, are there any recordings I can buy of the band. Thanks again. What a super day and my father had the time of his life. The highlight was the band. All our kind regards"

"“The Ambassadors played during our wedding drinks reception, just after our ceremony. The music was fantastic and they were so lively and got everyone hyped for the day! It felt really celebratory to come out of the ceremony into amazing live music. All our guests were raving about them and I know several want to book them for their own events. The band were also really lovely to chat to and very friendly, they were super responsive to emails and checked in with us regularly leading up to the wedding day. Can't recommend them enough!” "

"Having you play at my daughter’s wedding made her day more special. It took this wedding to the next level. Plus you played wonderfully I couldn’t believe mariachis were possible in Italy. Thank you for making this day more special ??"

"We were so excited to have Big Smoke at our wedding having had to postpone and it was definitely worth the wait. They were fantastic keeping our guests entertained during our drinks reception. This continued in the evening - many guests said they’d never seen so many people on the dance floor at one time! They guys are great and everyone loved them. The communication leading up to the day was great and they were happy to play the songs we really wanted as well as leaving off those we didn’t really like too much. We would highly recommend Big Smoke Brass!"

"Made the day! These gents are the best around. Fantastic guys, brilliant musicians and, most importantly, they bring the party! Huge smiles and a great vibe. We surprised the couple with the band on their way out of the civil ceremony and the whole wedding party was blown away. Thanks, gents! You were heroes!"

"We were lucky enough to hire the Party Band with Singer to perform at our wedding, and they were brilliant. From the initial enquiry, to the booking, to the actual day, it was all easy and stress free. All our guests were so complimentary and thoroughly enjoyed the performance, and the band fully vindicated our decision to not have a DJ. Gabriel was very considerate to ask if there were any songs from the set list we definitely wanted to be played, or avoided, and also kind enough to play our own playlist through their speakers between sets. I wouldn't hesitate to hire the band in the future for any other special occasion/event, and would recommend them to everyone"

"Thank you Big Smoke Brass for making our wedding so special. We wanted to find a band who did something a bit different, and who could play to a wedding crowd without being too ‘cheesy’. I’m so glad they were able to make our wedding in Wales; they were incredible. From the start, they were flexible about what songs we wanted them to play and were quick to respond - all while being amazing musicians who I’d love to see play all over again. They really judged the mood of the evening and both of their sets were brilliant. Everyone left the evening wanting to know who the band were, how we found them...or wanted to pick up a tuba and start learning. Thank you, thank you! "

"Nos facilitaron mucho toda la organización, la elección de canciones, equipo de sonido, etc... Muy implicados en que todo saliera bien, y luego ya el concierto fue la bomba, divertidísimo y todos estuvimos cantando y bailando de principio a fin. Gracias por todo chicos!"

"What a wonderful addition to any event! The Ambrassadors bring a feel-good vibe along with their instruments. Our company hired them for our centenary celebrations, and they were the perfect way to lift the mood and make people feel relaxed. They were brilliant to work with and the whole process was effortless. Would definitely recommend."

"Have known members of the Free Radicals for decades, and decided to hire them to perform at my wedding in 2014. We had some unusual requests (i.e., to perform as a marching band for a second line) and also to play some quieter "mood" music for our reception, and they were 100% game and did a wonderful job--professional musicians who know how to work a crowd with minimal handholding from event organizers! Guests really enjoyed and would recommend!"

"We booked the Strayhorns for our wedding and we couldn't have made a better decision. They led our wedding party between venues and totally set the mood for the day. They are great people to deal with and their superb musicianship, fun and energy was a true highlight of our day. Thanks so much guys, J & E xx"
