"We are very happy with the Ponte Vecchio Jazz Band’s performance. Not only are they very friendly, nice and polite, but also extremely professional and very talented artists. Music is so important, it can change an event in many directions. And with Simone, Stefano and Andrea our wedding got the very special extra flavour and emotion we were hoping for! Thank you for being there with us on our special day and creating this wonderful, jazzy, happy and loving atmosphere."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Wonderful! Ponte Vecchio played beautiful music during our ceremony, aperitif and dinner. They added so much sparkle to the atmosphere of the evening. Besides the amazing performance, we were so happy that the team was super professional from beginning to end. They were very responsive, reliable and punctual. They set up everything professionally and even our venue loved them! We can happily recommend them for any sophisticated event. We would certainly book them again."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Our family had an excellent experience with Ponte Vecchio Jazz Band, both in terms of planning and in terms of music. We had booked them for our parents' 60th wedding anniversary. We were a relatively small group (party of 12). In terms of set-up, they pre-planned with us professionally 2-3 weeks ahead of the event, arrived on time at the house (near Pienza), did the installation by the pool super smoothly, and wrapped efficiently post performance. They also accepted to wear the more formal attire, despite the hot weather. We could see how "under control" they were, completely at ease with this type of private event. In terms of music, it was overall better than expected: Jazz and Swing classics (Cheek to Cheek, Nat King Cole's L.O.V.E.), but also the great Italian songs. They accepted our particular requests from Ornella Vanoni to Laura Pausini, from Cinema Paradiso to Ennio Morricone, from Tu vuo fa l'americano to Caruso. A nice mix of vocal and instrumental. Overall, great energy, professionalism, musical and vocal skills on all instruments, Very attentive to our needs, from cocktails to bday festivities, at deserts time. Highly recommended."

Verified booking on FixTheMusic"We booked the Ponte Vecchio Jazz Band for our wedding. They played three songs for the ceremony and some sets afterwards, in the evening Andrea did some DJing. The live performances were on point and delivered a perfect atmosphere. The whole band was very kind, courteous and easygoing. We couldn‘t have asked for a better band to accompany our wedding. But not only the live performances were great, Andrea did an awesome job as a DJ as well - so thanks a lot guys! We would book you again any time!"
