Swing Band for Wedding Receptions

Down for the Count can provide all the music you need for your special day - from music for your wedding ceremony, a jazz band for background music during photos and dinner, and a function band for unforgettable evening entertainment. We can also learn your choice of first dance, and provide use of our sound and lighting system for a disco after the band has finished performing.

Oh, we do hope you enjoyed last Friday nearly as much as we did! Rosalind and Oliver had such a special time, which in no small part was down to you. Firstly with the lovely, dignified ceremony music, then the happy atmospheric quartet (and they loved the Louis Armstrong number) and that magnificent evening entertainment. There were people there we had known for thirty years and had never seen dance before! And the new Grandma had to go and fix her mascara after “Georgia On My Mind”. You all made it feel so special, and though you have moved on to the next events already, we hope you know that when “Down for the Count” are mentioned, it will bring on happy grins in the new Lambert family for at least the next forty years! All good wishes.
