Richard and Becci Coles
"Laughing Jax provided the entertainment at our wedding at Langley Castle a few weeks ago. All the guests we have spoken to since 'the big day' have commented on how fantastic they thought the band were. The band were very professional and played something to suit everyone. Andrea has the most beautiful and distinct voice and the musicians are obviously very talented. It really was the perfect end to the perfect day. Thanks so much.”
Joanne and Tony Howell
"Just a quick note to say thank you very much for making a lovely day perfect. The band did an excellent job and so many people commented on your performance.”
Paula Wilson
"The band was superb and everyone I spoke to thought it was an excellent selection of songs. I’ve had many phone calls this morning to say how great the music was.Thanks again for giving Mam and Dad great music for their party - they loved it. My Dad thought you worked especially hard.Can you especially thank Andrea who was faultless and delivered a great performance on the night. I hear she wanted to dance with my 10 month old baby son Daniel, maybe at his 18th party?"
Gavin Chilvers
"Thank you so much for your important contribution to our evening reception. Your musical excellence and professionalism was evident throughout the whole evening & you certainly know how to get the party going. Everyone is still talking about the evening - we'll certainly have no hesitation in recommending you to other people."
