“Brass Monkeys were AMAZING! We cannot recommend them enough. They had everyone on their feet (especially the bride) from start to finish. They played all our favourite songs and quickly put on any requested favourites from our family and friends. Each band member was super approachable and friendly and checked in with us to make sure we were happy with set timings - which meant we never had to worry about a thing. We didn't want a band and we didn't just want a DJ and therefore Brass Monkeys ticked all of our boxes perfectly. They were absolutely brilliant. Thank you for making our wedding day so special!”
