""We booked Ella & the Boys for our wedding and they were amazing! The dance floor was full and it was obvious that the musicians were top notch. The sets they planned were perfect and they were also really flexible about songs we wanted to add and learnt our slightly obscure first dance song. We would 100% recommend them for any wedding or party.""
