To George and The Band
Wow wow wow!!!! We just want to say the biggest thank-you!
We knew we wanted a band for our wedding but finding the right band we thought would be tricky, but as soon as we heard you we knew our evening was going to be amazing. And it was!! We loved every song, even the iPod music, my feet hurt the next day but it was worth it as everything you sang was fantastic. All our guests couldn't stop talking about you, we have given your number + email address out to a few people already! Thank-you for learning our first dance song. It made it even more special for us. Thank-you so so much!!

Thank you so, so much for making our Wedding weekend perfect - the mix of music suited our very wide age range of guests perfectly and fitting in acoustic versions of The Ramones and Green Day for Nick was fabulous ! A fabulous vocal range and outstanding musicianship - Genuine heartfelt thanks to you - Sarah and Nick x

George & The Band,

Thanks for an absolutely amazing evening on Saturday! You were the perfect wedding band and all of our guests from young to old loved the music. A great set list to please everyone and the constantly packed dance floor was a real testament to what a great job you did. The 500-miles rendition was amazing and will live long in the memories of our guests. Thank you so very much.

We saw George snapping away on the camera last night - would it be possible for you to send over the images once you've had a chance to review them (and probably after a decent sleep after your hectic double wedding weekend). I usually use Picassa if this works for you guys.

Thanks again,

Hi George

Many thanks for this – what great pics – we will definitely be buying the discs from you

I’m glad you all enjoyed the wedding. We all had a brilliant time and had so many comments back about how great the band was. Your sense of fun really shone through – trying to keep up with the ever faster 500 miles was a highlight as were the Eric Morecambe glasses for our quirky choice of Bring me Sunshine (we walked out the ceremony to it, so it brought a smile to everybody!).

I’m sure there will be so many more memories as we catch up with all our friends and family over the coming weeks and I’m sure the evening entertainment will come up again and again in conversation.

A big thank you to all of you for making our wedding so amazing.

Hi George,

A belated thank you for Friday evening. The band were superb and totally in tune with the musical taste of the attendees. They added greatly to what proved to be a very successful and enjoyable day. Please thank them for me and feel free to add us to your ever-increasing list of referee's.

Kindest regards

Thanks for the pictures, they look great, nice to remember the day and who was there as time went by so fast. Managed to have a very brief look as internet here not great, think signal comes via boat! Will send link to friends at home though so they can see. ...... Had so many people comment on how nice is was to have live duo for the ceremony rather than usual cd.
Thanks again, Sue.

Hi George and fantastic band members!! I wanted to say a huge thank you for playing at our wedding. You all were brilliant, so fabulous, so energetic, just perfect! You managed to get everyone dancing and the floor was always full. All our guests loved you guys and the songs you played. You were very kind to let Stella and Helen take over your space and instruments while the guys were resting. Thanks George for your kind reassurances and advice before the day as it was all new to me. You guys are the best band ever!!!!!!!

Hi guys,

Wanted to say such a massive thank you for making the party Saturday! You played 9 million bicycles and the 2 jewish bits brilliantly. And the rest of it was just excellent. Everyone said you were amazing and so many people asked where we found you... it was superb!

We didn't realise you'd be taking pictures through the night. If you've got any good ones would you mind sending them over?

Thanks again,

Hi George

We are so sorry we wanted to send this email to you as soon as we got back from honeymoon last week but getting back into work has taken it's toll and delayed things.

We are due to get some proper thank you cards printed soon which we will send on but in the meantime we just wanted to send a quick thank you by email.

We were totally blown away by the band, they were simply fantastic!. Even though we ran over by an hour thanks to the speeches, there wasn't one grumble from you guys and you got things going on the dance floor straight away. We have been to so many weddings in the past few years, and of course we would say this, but we have honestly never heard such a fantastic band at a wedding. We are so glad that we found you as any other band simply wouldn't have created the incredible atmosphere that you guys managed to create and have been so professional. I was so impressed (and grateful) at how early you turned up on the day to set up and just how professional you were. We loved every second of the day and a huge part of that was down to you.

Also we love the pics that you took throughout the night. We hadn't expected that and it has made it even more special to be able to look at your website and re live some of the evening. We still haven't got our wedding pics back from the photographer yet so your website are the only ones we have. Olly loves them so much I think he is going to email you and checkout if we can get copies from you.

We are still receiving compliments about how much everyone enjoyed the music!.

Thank you so so much again for such first class service. Everything exceeded our expectations. We can't recommend you highly enough.

Kind Regards

Becky and Olly

Re 18th September 2010 Moxhull Hall Sutton Coalfield

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for saturday night, the band was fantastic and more than exceeded our expectations - as you probably gathered we had a fantastic time. However as we have seen from facebook that you have posted some pictures of our evening. Would it be possible to have a copy of all of the photos you took as we have none of the evening and really love some of them? as there as some precious pictures there? Hope you can help and heartfelt thanks.

Love Julie & Karl Williams x

Re 11 September 2010 at the Hotel Du Vin in Tunbridge Wells.

Hi All Can myself and Clive say a Big 'THANK YOU' to you all for your part in making our daughter Claire and her new husband Jon's evening reception a wonderful occasion on the 11 September 2010 at the Hotel Du Vin in Tunbridge Wells. All our guests enjoyed the music that you played and we also know that the hotel staff on duty that evening also enjoyed the music and were very impressed. My feet still hurt the next day from all the dancing.

ps
We had found your blog and pictures, and the comments were very good. Their honeymoon destination was Cape Verdi, so somewhere still hot!! We now know where to come when we need a good band. Good luck for the future.

Many thanks again Clive and Carol Freeman

Hey Matthew!

Thank you so much for these!! So kind of you and I love the pics! Actually have been meaning to say since we got back what a fantastic job you guys did at the wedding - it was so busy that I didn't get a chance to thank your singers personally, but they were brilliant and I'm so grateful for the opportunity as well for my sister to sing with Matt. And if you're ever stuck for a singer....... :)

We're now back from honeymoon and wanted to say a belated thank you for such great music at our wedding on 31st July. We've had loads of compliments about the music and we all had a great time.

We've seen the cool write up on your website! Is there any chance you could email us a few of the photos you took of the evening dancing as we hardly have any? You took some really good ones!

Thanks again

Just a short note to say thank you once again for your truly excellent contribution to our wedding yesterday. Everyone was extremely complimentary about the music, and as Liz said earlier today, "I would recommend the band to anybody for any event".

In particular, thank you for learning Broken for us - there is nothing worse than hearing a bad cover of a song you love, but you guys totally nailed it, and helped make the whole event even more special for us.

Many thanks,

Re Nanette & Chris 12/06/2010
Dear Redfords,

We apologise for the lateness of this email, it's been a busy summer and the time seems to have flown by! We wanted to express our massive thanks to you for the fantastic music you played at our wedding on 12 June. The first dance was perfect, it will be our song forever now. The rest of the music was well chosen and sounded really good. When you played The Proclaimers and everyone rushed on to the dance floor I thought all the singing and jumping might bring the barn down! You were a great end to our special day. Many of our friends have mentioned how much they enjoyed your band and how lovely it was to have live music at a wedding. Your website was extremely useful as it was how we found you and decided your band was what we wanted for our wedding. Thank you again. If asked, we will certainly recommend you to our friends.

Best wishes Nanette and Chris

Re: Wedding event held at Mitton Hall, Lancashire on Saturday 5th June 2010.
I was the DJ on this occasion, and feel sure that the guests enjoyed the evening as much as I did. Your band where neat and tidy on stage, smart, very quick to sound check, and did not play over my disco tracks at any time throughout the evening, these are all big plus points for working alongside other entertainers with similar ideals.

The band have taken great care in choosing professional quality sound equipment to compliment their instruments, coupled with the outstanding musicianship and relaxed personality, the balance out front was excellent to listen too, and the dance floor atmosphere was equally busy. I would recommend `The Redfords' to anyone having a party and hope to work with you all again sometime soon.

Re September 19th Hampton Court Palace

We just had to contact you to let you know how much we all enjoyed the music at Caroline & Larry's wedding at Hampton Court on 19 September.

Your set was absolutely perfect for the occasion - I certainly have never before been to a wedding where the music was so good! There were so many high spots, but particular favourites have to be the opening Feeling song (which I gather you learnt especially for the occasion), the 'Sweet Home Alabama / Werewoles of London' medley, '500 miles', 'Chelsea Dagger', not to mention superb renditions of the Beatles, Beach Boys & Chuck Berry. We could have listened to you all night! Thank you so much for helping to make the occasion so special for everyone concerned - we shall be spreading our recommendations far and wide!

Best Wishes Rob & Alison

Dear Redfords

Well what can I say ? Thanks for turning up and doing a session at our wedding.

The whole wedding exceeded our expectations, but the music really was the cream on the cake.

You may have noticed that Steve is rubbish at dancing, so sorry about that. At least Sharron got down to being the boogie bride. Who would have thought a year ago she was lying in a hospital bed amazed at still being alive!.
Re 7th July 2009
Thanks for delivering that Aerosmith track so beautifully it really does mean a lot to us.

Half way through this letter and Ive got stuck for which compliment to use first. You created bags of atmosphere in what is usually a dowdy dancing area; this helped finish the evening off very well. Several people complimented on Sarah's voice, I echo that since it is a great singing voice with a Cindy Lauper crackle on key changes which adds to the appeal. Anyway top marks to you all thanks for the session. we have already given someone a spare demo CD which may turn into a booking.

Yours sincerely Steve.....
