Andy, Wedding in Surrey, May 2018

Tom & Jess, Wedding in Worcestershire, September 2017

“We had a fantastic time. The Original Vintage Swing Band put on a great show for us, the party was a huge success. Thanks for all your efforts, we will certainly book you again for similar events!”

Ian, Private Party in Kent, May, 2017

“We were extremely satisfied with the band, they played two sets of great swing music at our autumn wedding. The first set is more 'old-time' swing which was a nice way to ease everyone into it, then they ramped it up a bit to play more classic 50s and 60s rock songs in swing style, which got everyone dancing! It was great fun and everyone commented on what good music it was. The band all looked the part too and were friendly and responsive.”

Louise, Wedding in Devon, November 2016
