“Absolutely fantastic band, could not fault them. They really did make our wedding, and many of our guests plan to book them for their weddings. Liked their style online, then saw them play at a friend's wedding.”
Charity, Wedding in Essex, May 2018

“Just a line to say thank you so much for recommending The Capricorns! We were a little concerned booking without seeing much footage, but they totally exceeded our expectations. Get them to sort a video!!! They're amazing and your site doesn't do them justice!”
Clare, Private Party in Hastings, February 2018

“Thank you, thank you thank you!!! You absolutely made our day and were the icing on the cake!”
Alice, Wedding in Kent, January 2018

“We loved the look of the band online as their set-list was great, the quality of the performances on their videos was superb and their reviews were very convincing. All of this turned out to be exactly the case on the night. What a band! They're undoubtedly the best wedding band I've ever seen perform. Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop telling us how good the band were. The band were one of the main reasons everyone will remember the day for a long time. The dancefloor was full throughout. I will be recommending them to everyone I know. If there's a better wedding band out there I'd love to hear them.”
Alex, Wedding in London, October 2017

“Such a great band, I can't wait to work with them again!”
Jackie, Awards Ceremony at The Hilton Park Lane in London, October 2017

“The band were phenomenal. We received so many compliments and can't imagine hiring any other band in the future. We apologise we didn't get a chance to tell them this in person on the day. The dance floor was packed all night!”
Rebecca, Wedding at The Great Tythe Barn in Gloucestershire, September 2017

“After a long and intensive spreadsheet-based investigation, we narrowed our choice of band down to The Capricorns due to their having the best arrangements, style, energy and attitude to match the sort of wedding we hoped to have. The band sounded tight and had their own particular style, not just another folk/festival setup, as good as many of the other options we were considering were.
Even with a last-minute change of line-up due to illness, the band knocked it out of the park and completely made our evening reception. Every guest wanted to know who they were and where we found them and the dancefloor was packed from the first song. We squeezed every last encore possible and four weeks later people are still raving about how good the song choices and arrangements were.”
Richard, Wedding in London, August 2017

“The Capricorns were absolutely fantastic. The band had everyone up and dancing the whole night and everyone commented on how good they were. It was brilliant to have the variety of singers and the band themselves were really easy going and lovely to have around. It was a great way to finish off a perfect day!”
Katy & Richard, Wedding in West Sussex, June 2017

“We booked the band after we saw their videos online. We loved the vibe and the set lists. On the night they were absolutely brilliant! The agency were also super helpful, kept us fully informed and put up with lots of queries. On the day they band were a dream: as is always the way we were running behind schedule. They were totally chilled, took it all in their stride and set up in a quiet professional manner. Their performance of our first dance was spot on and the whole set was brilliant - they had ALL our guests on the dance floor, including my granny who got onstage! Booking the band was a bit of a gamble as it wasn't a recommendation and the videos are limited online, but it paid off times 1000000!”
Charlotte, Wedding in London, April 2017

“The event went so well and the band was fantastic! We received so many great comments and even though they were a repeat from last year they still managed to fill the dance floor despite the funfair being available at the same time. It has been great working with you and look forward to working with you on other events in the future.”
Sofia, Corporate Event in Brighton, September 2016

“We were lucky enough to have the Capricorns play at our Wedding, they were awesome, packed the dance floor, very professional also. Cheers guys.”
Sam & Div, Wedding in Kent, September 2016

“I've been to a lot of weddings recently and to be fair, I didn't set the bar very high for them, but OMG!! Just wow, wow, wow!! They blew us away with their energy and had the dance floor heaving all night. Thank you so much and big love to the guys, we thought they were incredible!!”
Harriet, Wedding in Surrey, August 2016
