Our Bridgerton vibes were out in full force today at the elegant wedding of Hannah and Henry at the iconic Grand Hotel in Torquay. Overlooking the sea front we played a selection of string pop covers such as Wildest Dream, Yellow, I will always love you, Halo and If I ain’t got you which really brought the classy atmosphere and ambience alive. Hannah was a stunning bride, beautifully attired in the most detailed lace dress. We had the best time beside the seaside and wish Hannah and Henry all the very best for the future.
Fantastic With Fizz were the daytime wedding musicians for Maria and Phil this weekend at the beautiful Parkway Hotel in Cwmbran.
Maria and Phil are big Star Wars fans and enjoyed an eclectic mix of music including the Star Wars Theme alongside some more traditional favourites such as Starships Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now, A Thousand Years and All of Me by John Legend. We particularly loved the Star Wars accessories including the Millennium Falcon board and Grogu on the cake! We then relocated to the outside terrace using our battery power where we played for the drinks reception. Maria and Phil very kindly provided us with a delicious chicken pie and chips during the speeches before we took our places again for the Wedding Breakfast where we were happy to accommodate lots of requests!
We had the best time in Wales and wish Maria and Phil every happiness for the future!
Fantastic With Fizz had the honour of being the daytime wedding musicians for Lauren and Damien at Owlpen Manor. Lauren looked beautifully radiant as she walked down the aisle to meet her Flight Lieutenant fiancé Damien who was an imposing figure with his uniformed groomsmen to the classical sounds of Canon in D. Their musical taste was broad with requests for JSBach to Bridgerton to Einaudi with some Game of Thrones and Harry Potter thrown in and we were more than happy to accommodate along with one of our favourites, Toda va estar bien which means “everything is going to be great!” which is beautiful, underrated song for a wedding in case anyone wants to check it out!
We then relocated during the confetti shots to the gorgeous gardens of Owlpen Manor where we played a more upbeat and contemporary set with songs from Rather Be to Pink Pony Club! We had the best time and wish Lauren and Damien and their lovely girls all the happiness in the world!
"Sam and Andy played at Owlpen Manor for our ceremony and drinks reception, just WOW, they were truly incredible from start to finish! We couldn't have wished for better musicians.
They played for our guests arriving at the church and also our hymns, which gave it that special touch. 1000% recommend! Thank you again, you were both brilliant xxxxx "
Fantastic With Fizz had the honour of playing at Scarlet and Conner’s beautiful wedding at St Andrews Church followed by a colourful teepee reception at Treesmill Farm in Cornwall. Scarlet looked amazing in the most beautiful, glittery dress complemented by her gorgeous bridesmaids in hot pink! We played a Bridgerton set during the guest arrival before Scarlet’s bridal entrance to a scaled back, acoustic instrumental version of Taylor Swift’s Love Story which was beautiful!
Dee, one of the guests, wowed the crowd with Make You Feel My Love during the signing of the register and Andy accompanied her on the guitar after a quick rehearsal just before the wedding started! We followed that with Ordinary by Alex Warren, before playing the exit song, Signed, Sealed, Delivered. The guests then popped to the pub across the road whilst we relocated to Treesmill Farm to play for the cocktail reception. We enjoyed some lovely pina coladas and margaritas from the specialty mobile bar, before playing a set of songs chosen by the couple - including everything from Britney to country to Chappell Roan! We felt so lucky to be part of this vibrant wedding and send all our love to Scarlet and Conner who make the most perfect couple!
"If you’re thinking about hiring a violinist / acoustic guitar for your wedding 100% go with Fantastic With Fizz! They were incredible. Even better than we remembered being when we first met, us & our guests were blown away and we keep getting comments about them a week later!
They played Taylor Swift in the church while the guests waited and for my walk down the aisle and I had goosebumps from the moment I heard them!
We were super unorganised and sending them random requests the week before the wedding and they pulled every one out of the bag perfectly with no trouble! They also accompanied my step mother singing on the day after only meeting that morning and barely any practise they are both so talented!
We went over with our timings and they continued to play for much longer than expected, and were just the nicest people ever!!! Thank you so much Fantastic With Fizz - I wish I could do it all again!" 💗💗
What a weekend! A wedding in Cornwall on Saturday followed by one the other end of the country in Crewe on Sunday! Fantastic with Fizz were delighted to provide the music for Poppy and Joe’s wedding outside on the stunning lawn at Rookery Hall.
We played a selection of pop covers including a special request from Poppy for Palamino Princess, a little known country song that worked beautifully arranged for violin and guitar. Poppy made a grand entrance to Can’t help falling in love and we played some Queen and Beach Boys during the signing of the register. We then went on to play during the wedding breakfast and had so much fun with everyone singing along to our tunes! What a great crowd! We loved every single minute of this fun and lively wedding (including the quick violin lesson given to Teddy!) and wish Poppy and Joe all the very best for their future together!
Fantastic with Fizz had the privilege of being the wedding musicians in sunny Cornwall today for Alesha and Mikey at The Barn, Pengelly!
What an amazing day it was! We started with a few requests from Alesha whilst the guests were being seated including Love Changes Everything which was a new one for us, and then played The Vow for the Bridal Party Entrance. Alesha’s bridesmaids looked really classy in the monochrome colour scheme and Alesha was an absolutely stunning bride!
During the confetti shots we decamped to the Drinks Reception where we played for the canapes and fizz. Alesha and Mikey are big Disney fans and got engaged at EuroDisney so we were happy to throw in lots of our Disney standards! It was an honour to be part of this beautiful wedding and we wish Alesha and Mikey every happiness for their future together.
"We had 'Fantastic with Fizz' (Sam & Andy) play at our wedding at The Barn at Pengelly, and they were absolutely outstanding. Their violin and guitar duo created the most beautiful atmosphere throughout the day, from the ceremony to the drinks reception. Every piece was played with such emotion, precision, and style—it truly elevated the entire experience.
They even learned and performed a few songs we requested that weren’t on their usual set list, and they played them beautifully. It meant so much to us and made the music feel really personal.
So many of our guests commented on how wonderful the music was. Sam and Andy were also a pleasure to work with—professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do.
We can’t recommend Fantastic with Fizz highly enough. They were one of the highlights of our day and we’re so grateful to have had them there."
Love Alesha & Mikey x
