“A great, versatile band that we booked for our wedding and then again to celebrate our first anniversary. I would recommend to anyone but especially lovers of Latin music.”

“We would though like to send our sincerest thanks to Rio Jazz for their wonderful performance on the evening. Our guests had a great time, and their music was pitch perfect for the type of party we held. My partner found them a pleasure to work with, they arrived on time and were totally unobtrusive in setting up their equipment. It was also a pleasure to have them play our 'first song' - Aguas de Marco - and thanks to their input we have dozens more wonderful wedding memories to carry ourselves onward to the next stage of our life together. With regards to Function Central, we very much appreciated the efficiency and easy of your service. Again, your team were professional and I have no complaints at all. We would very much like for Rio Jazz to perform for us in the future, and look forward to working with Function Central as well!!”

“We were extremely pleased with the band performance in our wedding, in fact we think it was one of the best investments in the party, brought a sophisticated and up-beat element to the party atmosphere! Gui Tavares was a lovely character to deal with, very responsive and interactive during the playlist setup, giving his input on amplification and sound setup on the island where the event was to happen to maximize the performance perception. Being Brazilian myself, I can say his suggested playlist contains the classiest bossa nova and local popular music, but as well some pop and international hits, it certainly pleases all crowds. I was impressed with their punctuality and reassurance throughout the process, as well as the quality of their delivery. The female singer voice was angelic and both worked harmonically as a duo . They seemed to play the songs with their hearts, and of course the guests realize it, it was a huge success!”
