Becky & Andrew

Wedding Reception, Selwyn College, Cambridge, 30 Jul 2016

Dear Mike, Iā€™m sorry for not writing to you sooner to say thank you for everything. You and the band were superb - especially given the massive delay before you were able to perform, and the fact that we forgot to bring the interval playlist(s)! Our guests were extremely complimentary and said they really enjoyed the band and the dancing. So thank you - and thank you for making it all so easy for us too. I hope that we get to see you perform again in the not too distant future. Best wishes.

Austin & Amanda

Wedding Reception, Stoke Place, Buckinghamshire, 29 Jul 2016

Dear Mike, we wanted to say a huge thank you for being part of our wedding. From the classical music during the ceremony to the full 9-piece jazz band in the evening, the music was just perfect. We have been fans of your bands for a long time and have always said you would be amazing to have at a wedding so we are so pleased you could play for us on our special day. We have had so many comments from our guests about how fantastic the band was and you were definitely one of the highlights of the day. You never fail to get everyone dancing! We are also very grateful for the music you provided for our wedding video. The live recordings have made the videos so personal and bring back the best memories of the day. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you promote this option to other couples in the future. Hopefully see you at a Down for the Count event soon. Best wishes.

Birthday Party, Hertfordshire, 9 Jul 2016

Dear Mike, Thank you. We had a wonderful time! All our guests said how amazing the band were - which was true! The performance was excellent, as was the choice of songs. Once people had finished eating they were keen to get dancing. Your friends were skilled, charming and courteous. It was a real pleasure to have them with us as guests as well as musicians. And we didn't have any complaints about the sound level - in fact I heard that people walking down the street were joining in and dancing! Please pass on our thanks once again to all the performers - they were wonderful! We look forward to the next time..... Best wishes

Wedding Reception, Ascott Cricket Pavilion, Buckinghamshire, 4 Jun 2016

We can't thank Mike Paul-Smith Music enough for providing such incredible live music and excellent service for our wedding and making a special day extra special. The music was of such a high standard the band were the talk of the evening. Everyone was asking 'where did you find them they're amazing!ā€™ and many people felt like they were at a concert! The band got everyone on their feet dancing and mingling together, from 2- to 92-year-olds. It was just as I had dreamed and ended the evening on an incredible high. The band were the easiest planning part of the whole wedding for us as Mike was super quick at responding to my questions providing a friendly, professional and efficient service. Band leader for the evening Kate made everything run smoothly, and she was lovely and reassuring even when things were running a bit late. You're a lovely group of talented people who deserve every success that comes your way!

Richard & Sharon

Wedding Reception, Lains Barn, Oxfordshire, 30 May 2016

Hi Mike, Sharon and I are back from our honeymoon now and wanted to send a quick message to thank you and the band for making our day so special. You were brilliant. You sound wonderful, are great entertainers and know how to make an evening go with a swing. We have had extremely positive feedback with quite a few asking for your contact details. We hope something will come of it. Thanks also for accommodating Simon Webbe from Blue - he clearly enjoyed his session and had he had more time would have performed with you all evening. Thanks once again.

Corporate Event, Manchester, 28 May 2016

I would absolutely recommend The Get Downs. They really knew how to get the dance floor going and selected songs that kept us on the dance floor all night long too. Professional and friendly and easy to work with before and during the event.

Corporate Event, Tattershall Castle, London, 4 May 2016

We welcomed The Get Downs on board the Tattershall Castle for the London Christmas Show after party and they were absolutely fantastic! Very professional and entertaining, I will definitely recommend them to all my colleagues and future corporate bookings.

Roger & Marh

Wedding Reception, Hilton, Northampton, 30 Apr 2016

Hi Mike, just a quick email to thank you for adding so much to our special day. Without exception, or any prompting, everyone that we have spoken to since the wedding day has commented on how much they enjoyed the band. We thought the dance floor might be a little quieter during your first set as we thought that it would be mainly our friends from Lindy Hop that would be dancing. If you remember, how wrong could we be, from after the first dance the dance floor was packed. It all added to our great day. Many thanks.

Helen & Nick

Wedding Reception, Andaz Hotel, London, 9 Apr 2016
