Floodgate played at our wedding on 21st September and were completely brilliant. Everyone has said so. The dance floor was full all night and the band involved people, which kept the crowd amused. We could not have been happier with Floodgate and recommend them wholeheartedly - our guests were around the 28-year-old mark mainly, but the oldies also enjoyed them as they play such a range of classics. Thank you Floodgate for making our wedding night so much fun!

We loved your music. The dance floor was crowded throughout thanks to your verve and style.
