Antonia & Martin's Wedding
We can't recommend Blue Lion highly enough. From start to finish, they were a pleasure to work with and turned out to be one of the highlights of our wedding day.
The planning process was completely stress-free. They were good fun in the build-up, helped get us excited for the day, and were accommodating with everything we asked. Nothing felt like too much trouble.
On the night itself, they brilliant. The energy was great, they had everyone up dancing, and we've had so many compliments from our guests about how good they were. They also rolled with the punches brilliantly when our catering ran behind, they flexed the original timings without any fuss, which we hugely appreciated.
If you're thinking about booking them for your wedding, do it.
Blue Lion Band's reply:
Thank you so much, Antonia, this is such a wonderful review to read. We had an absolutely brilliant time celebrating with you both, and your guests brought so much energy to the dance floor. It means a lot to hear that the planning felt easy and enjoyable for you, and we’re really glad the build‑up helped add to the excitement of the day.
Thank you as well for your kind words about the performance on the night. We loved every moment. Dj Shawn was in his glory as well due to the type or music being requested hehe.
Your recommendation means the world to us. Wishing you and Martin all the happiness ahead. -

Brilliant wedding band who get guests involved and bring tons of fun
From day one of booking, we were allocated Dessie as our producer and were given a link to a planning portal where we were able to put specific song requests etc.
On the actual night, Hayley the singer brought my brother up to the band to sing I will Survive with him as 2 years prior he had given me a joke Christmas present of a voucher for him to sing that at my wedding. It was an absolutely brilliant moment that all our guests and especially us, loved!Blue Lion Band's reply:
Thank you so much for sharing this. Hayley bringing your brother up to sing I Will Survive was such a brilliant moment. Knowing it tied back to a memorable time made it even more special. We’re so glad you and your guests loved it as much as we did.
Cheers,
Dessie -

Fantastic band
We had a fantastic time at the wedding reception and Blue Lion Band played a huge part in that! They are excellent musicians and the lead singer has a beautiful voice. It was excellent to listen to and joyous to dance to, and there was a lot of dancing! So many guests mentioned how great the band was. They were very easy to deal with right from the start. In short, very professional and extremely talented.Blue Lion Band's reply:
Hi Mary,
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re really glad you had such a great time and that the band made such an impact on the night. It’s wonderful to hear how much your guests enjoyed the music too. Thanks again for having us

Outstanding and very professional band
Outstanding and very professional band. They played a large corporate event for us and we were thrilled. They had the whole room up dancing and were the stars of the evening. The whole process was smooth and easy and they made my life as the event organiser very easy. Would 100% recommend.Blue Lion Band's reply:
Hey Loren, we really enjoyed playing at your awards event. The audience was fabulous and made the evening a lot of fun! Thanks again for having us! Darren and The Blue Lion Band -

We could have danced all night!
We could have danced allll night with the Blue Lion Band at our Brockwell Hall wedding in London! They were absolutely fantastic and provided a wonderful set of music to keep us going!
Deleelah sang most of the night, and.. wow! What a voice and pair of lungs! She was incredible!
Organising the wedding was super easy. They have a really straightforward online portal where you can pick songs/leave notes/etc. Simon then made sure to answer any of our questions and found the perfect set of musicians for our event.
On the day, they showed up and got set up with no fuss -- and then played the night away! Sadly the venue had a strict cut off time, as our guests were begging for just one more song!
100/10 recommend them!-

I'm glad you all had a great time, as did the band, we just love to party, especially Deleelah who never stops smiling and singing at the same time. We really appreciate your kind words. Such a pleasure working with you both.

Amazing wedding band!!
Blue lion band were amazing for our wedding! We had the 8 piece band and absolutely loved it! All our guests commented on how good they were and how much fun they were! Simon was great helping us organise beforehand, taking song requests and tailoring set lists and the event was better than we could have hoped for! The band had great energy all night, and created some magical moments for us throughout the evening. Highly recommend!Blue Lion Band's reply:
Thanks so much for your kind words. What can I say, it was a pleasure Henry. It makes such a difference adding the full horn section, adding that extra bit of energy to the dance floor. Simon -

Wow - absolutely blew us away!
We couldn’t believe how good the band sounded and the amazing energy they brought all night. We also had the duo for the ceremony which was stunning and so worth it. Such a talented group, the set list was impeccable, happy to take some requests, would recommend to anyone! -

The Brilliant Blue Lion Band
We would like to thank Darren and the Blue Lion Band for entertaining us at our evening reception at the Ashdown Park Hotel in September 2025.
We went to see their showcase in Hove during the summer and after speaking with Darren we immediately decided to book them.
We chose an 8-piece set up with brass section and they were fantastic. They completely exceeded all expectations. The sound was amazing and the music was flawless. They sounded better live than on any of the demo videos we watched.
They did 3 sets and each set ensured the dance floor was never empty. Both of the vocalists had brilliant voices and the brass section were fabulous and added so much to the overall sound.
They made our wedding truly special and we can’t thank and recommend them enough.
Booking and organising the evening was easy. The portal made it run smoothly and Darren was very helpful in arranging the evening and working out timings and our play list.
Thank you so much to Darren and the Blue Lion BandBlue Lion Band's reply:
Hi Amanda & Scott, thank you very much for your review and also for having us as part of your big day! The venue was fantastic and it was great to see you and your guests dancing all night, we had a great time! Wishing you both the very best for the future. Darren and The Blue Lion Band -
