Megan and Tom: Warbrook House, Reading July 2026

Another absolutely gorgeous day at the wedding of Megan and Tom at Warbrook House near Reading this weekend!
We played a Bridgerton set for Guest Arrival before Megan entered, looking utterly stunning, to the ever classic Canon in D. The colour theme was brown which was quite unusual but it worked beautifully and Sam was relieved as all her pink and blue dresses were at the dry cleaners! After the register signing of Signed Sealed Delivered and I Get To Love You, we played them out to I’m A Believer which always works really well as an exit song. We then relocated to the bar to play a selection of songs that Megan had hand picked and submitted via our website song wish list.
We were very kindly treated to a delicious supplier meal before relocating again to the cocktail bar and then also outside to the lake to provide some chill sax vibes!
This was a gem of a wedding, Warbrook House is a stunning venue with multiple function rooms and options for gatherings, as was the picturesque lake which was perfect for the golden hour photos! The day ended perfectly as England beat Norway 2-1 so everyone was very happy!
We wish Megan and Tom all the very best for the future and thank you for asking Fizz to be part of your day!

A lovely trip to Kent for the beautiful “at home” wedding of Sam and Ant! Sam has chosen some wonderful songs which we hadn’t come across before including her gorgeous aisle song Gravity by Embrace which is definitely worth a listen for anyone looking for something a bit different!
Sam walked down the aisle with her four gorgeous daughters as bridesmaids, all looking stunning before the Celebrant regaled us with the story of how they met. We played some more Embrace songs for the exit before swapping to sax for an upbeat drinks reception set.

Emma and Matt: Clock Farm Barn April 2026

Another amazing wedding at the beautiful Clock Barn in Hampshire for Emma and Matt! We were with them all day providing the musical soundtrack from the Ceremony where we played a specially arranged version of What the World Needs Now along with Crazy little thing called love. Their gorgeous doggie was a wonderfully well behaved ring bearer and Emma looked stunning, wearing the most elegant, classic lace gown. We then set up to play for the drinks reception in the bar but it was such a beautiful day that the guests all moved outside. Luckily, we had our battery pack so quickly followed them to do an upbeat set. Emma is a big Ed Sheeran fan so that kept us busy with all the hits from Thinking Out Loud to Galway Girl which works brilliantly on violin!
After a softer set during the wedding breakfast, we had a lovely chicken sandwich and then went back to play Die With A Smile for their First Dance. Emma and Matt were channeling their Dirty Dancing vibes with all sorts of fancy lifts and moves! We had a great time and wish them all the best for their future together!

Megan and Phil: Imperial Hotel, Hythe March 2026

Congratulations to Megan and Phil on their beautiful wedding this weekend at The Imperial Hotel, Kent. This was an extra special one, it nearly didn’t happen as Megan was staying in the Fairmont Hotel in Dubai when it was struck by a missile in the Iran war. It was touch and go whether she would make it home in time for the wedding but luckily she managed to get out eventually on a flight and the day went ahead as planned. Needless to say they are still gathering the courage to venture out on a honeymoon. The stresses of the last few weeks were a distant memory though, today, on this perfect spring day by the sea! Megan entered in a beautiful glittery gown, preceded by their very cute daughter, Amelia. Phil was really nervous but soon put at ease as the bridal party came down the aisle to the ever popular Canon in D by Pachelbel. During the register signing, we played 4 songs which was a record – I get to love you, Beautiful Crazy, Stand by me and Chasing Cars. After exiting to Taylor Swift’s Love Story, we then relocated to the bar where Megan had requested some lively sax tunes. Then it was back to violin for the Wedding Breakfast which was very jolly as their local team just won the league and everyone joined in with a specially arranged version of Take Me Home Country Roads! We were so thrilled to be part of such a fun wedding and send Megan and Phil all the love in the world for their future together!

“Well where do I begin! Fantastic with Fizz what an amazing duo!

Andy and Sam joined us on our wedding day at the hythe imperial on the 28th March 2026 and performed our ceremony and wedding breakfast using the violin, guitar and saxophone and this was just outstanding!

From the day of booking to the actual day they was amazing and so helpful, also around for questions I needed answered and support with choosing certain songs.

We had a range of music we wanted played and they went above and beyond to deliver this to us and had all of us up and dancing and singing along. The energy they bought to our day was breathtaking.

I cannot thank you guys enough for making our day that little bit more special there are just no words to tell you how much myself and husband appreciated you both.

Lovely day today at the beautiful wedding of Felicity and Alex at the church of St Peter and St Paul in Exton. Felicity entered in the most stunning dress to an arrangement she had sent us from TikTok of Concerning Hobbits. We already had this song in our repertoire but the version she wanted was so much better so we really enjoyed arranging it for her! We played You are the Reason, Biblical and Signed, Sealed and Delivered during the Register followed by another special request of the F1 Theme for the Exit song which worked absolutely brilliantly! Thank you Felicity for all your wonderful ideas! We really loved performing at this lovely wedding and send Felicity and Alex so much love for the future!! Congratulations guys!

Felicity says:

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Fantastic with Fizz play at our church ceremony, and their performance was nothing short of breathtaking. The song I walked down the aisle to was a surprise for my husband, and he became emotional the moment it began. It was such a beautiful, heartfelt moment that we’ll never forget.

Our guests couldn’t stop commenting on how lovely and moving the music was. Having them play added such elegance and emotion to the ceremony, and their professionalism and talent truly made the day even more special. I can’t recommend them highly enough!”

Kelly and Paul: Great Baddow, Chelmsford August 2025

 
The sun was shining for the fabulous wedding of Kelly and Paul in Great Baddow! They booked us for our Gold Package, with a violin/sax combo, providing music for the Ceremony, Drinks Reception and Wedding Breakfast. We started with violin for the Ceremony, including Kelly’s entrance. She walked down the aisle (looking utterly gorgeous) to A Moment Like This which is not one we’ve played for an entrance before, but what a brilliant choice! The hairs were standing up on our arms whilst we were playing and there was not a dry eye in the house! We then played You Raise Me Up as a feature of the service which was a lovely touch, before they walked out together to From This Moment On by Shania Twain. We then relocated to the Reception venue which was truly amazing. Just across the road from the church was Russell’s Restaurant which they had booked exclusively for the day, and what a day it was! It was decorated so beautifully in dark green and gold and the food was out of this world! We played a sax set whilst people had some canapés and cocktails before providing some background violin for the meal. The icing on the cake for us was being provided with a fantastic 3 course meal!! As suppliers, you often set up 2 hours before the wedding, maybe from 10 am and if you finish after the drinks or meal, you have definitely missed lunch and it’s not always easy to find a place that’s serving food at that time nearby so we really appreciated Kelly and Paul’s generosity, especially as the food was so delicious and highly rated! We sat with the photographers, Liam Galvin and James who taught us how to do our first tik tok video which was fun! We were so honoured to be part of this stunning wedding, Kelly and Paul, thank you so much for looking after us so well, we wish you every possible happiness for your future together!

Caroline and Joe: Minstrel Court, Cambridge July 2025

 
Fantastic with Fizz we’re delighted to provide a Platinum all day music package for the beautiful wedding of Caroline and and Joe at Minstrel Court in Cambridge! Caroline walked in over a romantic bridge over the lake to Millionaire by Chris Stapleton. Caroline and Joe are big country fans and we played a lot of country tunes throughout the day, including Tennessee Whisky as the Exit Song. Caroline wanted to mix up the vibe during the drinks reception so we did some chill tunes on sax before relocating inside for the Wedding Breakfast where we did a Bridgerton set. Caroline and Joe gave us a lovely hog roast to enjoy during our break, before we serenaded them for their First Dance which was Stand By Me on sax. We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed being part of their special day! Congrats, guys xxx
