Helen, Thanks so much for an amazing night on Saturday

Hi! Thanks so much for an amazing night on Saturday. All my guests said how great the band were, and you judged the mood of the crowd perfectly. EMF's Unbelievable was great, as was Girls Aloud but it was brilliant how the dance floor erupted for Rick Astley!

Michael and Kathryn, you were fab and the guests really enjoyed the music!

Been a bit of a whirlwind since the wedding. I've entered the vote, top-marking you and highly recommending the Frankies. Hope you win!
We're still waiting for our official photos, hopefully we'll get the soon and I'll make sure to post to the FB page!
Thanks once again for contributing to our great day, we had a great time and enjoyed dancing the night away - you were fab and the guests really enjoyed the music!
Hope your summer schedule's going well, good luck with the awards.

Shanthi and Phil, You exceeded all expectations and made our night so perfect!

Hi guys,
We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you all for being so fantastic at our wedding on 30th August. You exceeded all expectations and made our night so perfect! We had lots of people asking about you saying how good you all were!
Also thank you to Jon for all your help before the day - the playlist you chose was absolutely perfect as our guest (and us) loved every minute!
Thank you so much again,

Karen Nick and Gemma, we will certainly be recommending them to friends and family

Hi Robin
Please can you pass on our thanks to the band for a super night on Friday when they played at Nick and Gemma's wedding.
It was a large room and as a few guests couldn't make it at the last minute I was worried there wouldn't be many up on the dance floor, but how wrong I was. The guys really worked hard.
Please pass on all of our thanks and we will certainly be recommending them to friends and family.

Sue ( Mother of the Bride)Katie and Stephen, they really got the party started

Katie & Stephen have jetted off to Antigua for a couple of weeks and no doubt they will want to thank you themselves on their return, but we wanted to get in touch ourselves to say how great the band were on Sunday. Everyone enjoyed the music and without doubt they contributed a great deal to making it an unforgettable experience, not only for Katie & Stephen, but all the guests as well; they really got the party started.
Many thanks again,

Ricky B Resident DJ, the Funtime Frankies were truly exceptional

My name is Ricky B. and I have been the Resident DJ at Garstang Country Hotel for the last 6 years. Before becoming a DJ I performed as a singer/ guitarist around pubs and clubs throughout the Nort-West .I have played alongside many bands in that time and I have got to say that the Funtime Frankies were truly exceptional . They played alongside me at a wedding on Easter Sunday 2015 and were stunning. Most bands tend to be"over loud" which is not only painful, but also tends to cover a lack of musicianship. These lads were really polite and ultra- professional. The range of material they can play is also unrivalled, in my opinion.
Their versions of "Livin' on a Prayer" and particularly "Uptown Funk" really need to be witnessed live because they were as good as the original recordings- yes they really are THAT good! I have never recommended DJ,s or Bands before, but I really feel that the Funtime Frankies are the best band that I have heard in the last ten years , you won't get deafened! And you'll hear every professional note that played and sung! Brilliant and well done,Ricky B Resident DJ
