Reviews of sophisticated swing orchestra

Michael and Katie hired Sophisticated Swing Orchestra for their Wedding in Yorkshire Wedding Barn

Everybody loved the band and I've heard a few music lovers say it was the best swing band they have ever seen. Sophisticated Swing Orchestra have made an ever lasting impression with everyone. The intro was fantastic and definitely started the evening off with a bang. We thank Sophisticated Swing Orchestra for our first dance it was more perfect than we could have imagined. I can not express our appreciation enough to them. They made the evening a brilliant success and are true professionals.

Roisin and Steve hired Sophisticated Swing Orchestra for their Wedding at Holmes Chapel, Cheshire

Sophisticated Swing Orchestra made our wedding! We thought our special day couldn't get any better after we exchanged our vows and heard the kind words from our family but, as soon as we heard the music, I knew that the band would leave an impact on our guests. I did not stop dancing all night! We truly enjoyed every moment of the band's set and all our guests have commented on how wonderful they were. Really wish we could have had them longer. I want to say a heartfelt thank you to Matthew and the rest of the band for making our wedding magical.
