 1. Steve Backshall and Helen Glover. Prussia Cove,  Cornwall *****

The music was pretty much the most important thing in planning our wedding day, so I spent months researching before settling on The Great Escape. They completely blew us and our guests away; people were dancing during their sound check, and literally no one left the dance floor until the last note was played. Rachel has a voice and personality that can fill any venue, the band are incredibly tight, and despite a setlist packed with favourites, they make every song their own. We just want to get married again, so we can have another night in their company! 

We just got back from honeymoon last night, and the whole way through were buzzing about our perfect day, and the role you all played in it. I will never forget to my dying day, you belting out 9-5 while everyone from grannies to the farmer’s kids went crazy, and then sitting round the bonfire till near dawn singing our hearts out. One of the most special moments of my whole life.

You are truly good souls. 

Huge hugs from two of your new biggest fans, SB and HB

 

2. Sarah and Matt. Cornish Tipi Weddings,  Bodmin *****

Thank you so so much for all the energy you, Rachel and the band gave to our wedding.

You guys ROCK.​

We would love to come and see you guys at a gig if you are local to us at all.

We have had so many compliments about you from our guests.

Thank you for being awesome.

 

3. Hannah and Tom. Wedding at Sibton Park,  Suffolk *****

Now that we have returned from our mini-moon in deepest, darkest Norfolk and are back in touch with the rest of the world I wanted to send a message of huge thanks. We were delighted with your playing at our wedding at Sibton Park and have had so many compliments from our guests. You were most definitely a hit! Looking around in the evening and at times seeing every single person in the marquee up on the dancefloor was a great feeling and has left fantastic memories. So thank you again for helping to make our wedding so brilliant. I'll leave you with a photo of us enjoying our first dance very much.
Lots of love
Hannah and Tom

 

4. Harriet and Simon. Rustic Wedding in Winchester *****

Just wanted to write a quick note to say a huge thank you to you all for making the end of our wedding day the absolute highlight. You might have noticed that we had the most brilliant time and so many people have said how amazing you were. You got people dancing who have literally not danced in years. We cant tell you how happy we are that we chose you.

You absolutely made our day.

 

5. Laura & Tim. Wedding at Hawstead Place,  Suffolk *****

Just a little note to say a massive thank you for doing such an amazing job at our wedding.

Everyone had such a fantastic time because of you and we had so many compliments on the band! You are all stars.

Thank you 

Love, Laura and Tim.

 

6. Nicholas and Laura. Wedding at Pentre Mawr, North Wales *****​

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you guys in The Great Escape for providing such fantastic musical entertainment at Laura and Nick's wedding. It was awesome and so many of the guests commented on how brilliant you were and I'm sure you could see (and feel! ) for yourselves the magical atmosphere you created.

Linda Evans (Mother of the bride)

 

7. Mike and Amy. Wedding at Eastnor Castle, Herefordshire ***** 

Mike and I wanted to say a huge thank you to all of the band. You were so fantastic and all the guests kept saying how wonderful you were too and asking where we'd found you. We honestly couldn't have wished for a better band.

You helped make yesterday the most wonderful night possible.

 

8. Rachel and Simon. Wedding at Tithe Barn, Petersfield *****

Simon and I just wanted to say a massive thank you for playing so brilliantly at our wedding.

We and all the guests absolutely loved all the music and even all the oldies were dancing away.

Simon and I are only sorry that we missed your final set.

Mum says that all the thank you letters mention how great the band was.

 

9. Livingroom Estate Agents, 10th Anniveresary party in Guernsey *****

From start to finish, this incredibly professional outfit delivered with enormous passion and talent.

A huge thank you for making our event so special.

If you're looking for a night to remember talk to The Great Escape, I cannot recommend them enough. 

Simon Torode - Founder, Livingroom Estate Agents

 

10. Amy and Mark - Somerley House, Ringwood *****

Thank you for the BEST night. Such an awesome atmosphere, the dance floor was full all night long.

Each member of The Great Escape is super talented, with skills on the drums from Greg, immense guitar solo's, fabulous keys and vocals from Ash and stunning vocals from Rachel. Rachel's energy kept the room on a massive high all night, you were all incredible.

Thank you.

Lots of Love Amy and Mark Frost.
