Liz Howells - VOWS Awards

Aurora are a fantastic band - great to work with, exceeded expectations, sounded awesome and kept the dancefloor packed all night, everything an Event Manager needs so thanks boys!

Julie Fraser, An Lochin Tormaukin

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know that I've just voted for you in the VOWS awards Impeccable customer service - make you feel very special which made us very confident in using them. They go above and beyond to play the type of music that means something to you. Very professional - turned up when they said they would. Very polite, lovely to guests, very smiley. It looked like they were having as much fun as we were! Sounded amazing - they are just great. They're great live performers. They know how to get everyone enjoying themselves and have a great blend of tracks to appeal to the widest of age groups at your wedding. Lovely guys - they're just a lovely bunch of guys. Feedback - So many of our guests raved about them on the evening and the next day. The venue asked for their contact details. I'm sure they must scoop up repeat business everywhere they go. Aurora Wedding Band are a sensational act and a 'must-have' ingredient for the perfect wedding or indeed for any other celebration! I'm not in PR and marketing for nothing!! Seriously, you were all of the above! Go forth and continue to kick ass! Julie x

Natalie & Stuart, Park Hotel

Sorry for the late reply as we are currently in the Maldives lol. Meant to email you after the wedding but just had a busy few days before the honeymoon. The night was fantastic and everyone loved you guys. We had a great day and the evening entertainment just made our night. I can honestly say that everyone had something good to say about you guys including Jock the Box who thought you were a really good band and very professional from setting up and song changes etc. We have even had a friend ask for your details so they can book you for their wedding in 2011! I will certainly be voting for you in the VOWS awards as everything including your communication was excellent from the moment we booked you guys. Again i would just like to thank all the guys for a great night and hope that we will see you in the near future sometime. We are both just away for a cocktail and a dip in the indian ocean lol...

Thanks again Aurora you made our wedding the greatest day!!!

Steven & Lesley Lee, St Andrews In The Square

Hi boys, just a quick note to say that you guys were absolutely fantastic - we were blown away by what you did, as was everyone else. They're a hard crowd to get going and you guys played them to a tee - a perfect mix of tunes and you'll be getting some calls from a lot of folk there who have weddings coming up. Pass on our thanks to the rest of the band as it was exactly what we wanted and asked for - no Ronan Keating in sight!

Lisa Winchester, Dundas Castle

From the day I sent you the first e-mail until after our wedding, the service we've received from you has been outstanding. Thanks so much for going out of your way to sort everything our for us the hiccup with our venue!. You're all very talented guys and everyone's still commenting on how fantastic you were - you absolutely made the evening! THANK YOU!!!

Charlotte & Greame, Royal College Of Physicians

Hi guys, Just an email to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding on Saturday. You were great and loads of people have asked for your details as they enjoyed the music so much. I think it was obvious from how many people were up dancing! We also really loved the first dance and how you covered - Like a Hurricane. Luckily, someone has it videod on their camera so we can watch it back.

Karyn & Stuart, Glenskirlie Castle

Hi Tony and the Boys, Just back from honeymoon today and wanted to e-mail you the minute I got back. Don't know what to say - you guys were amazing. Really fabulous!!! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day and your band made the night, just awesome!!! Already a few friends who are getting married in the future have asked for your details, so hopefully you'll get more business out of it, you deserve it. your choice of music was superb, new shoes is just one of our fav songs. The dancefloor was jumping, exactly what I wanted. Honestly, a huge THANK YOU, you were superb - if I wasn't already married I'd marry the lot of you!!

Caron & Daniel Rose, Seamill Hydro

You guys were fantastic and really lived up to your name. You lit up the night for us with a wonderful range of music that ALL of our guests loved! Thank you for learning our first dance song - it was brilliant! You helped make our wedding day so personal and memorable.

Cora & Alan Main, Avonbridge Hotel

Hi Guys, we are just getting ready to jet off to Aruba, but before we go, we had to drop you all a line to say a HUGE THANK YOU!!!!! for helping to create such a wonderful atmosphere on Saturday at our wedding. We both had a fantastic time, and you guys really made the atmosphere so very special! In addition to our own enjoyment, everyone we have talked to since Saturday had a fab time too. They have all been asking who you guys are and where we found you. You were awesome and we would have liked to phone you to say thanks, but we are both still hoarse after singing along to so many great tunes!!! Think our guests had quite a few dancefloor injuriest too....always the sign of a good night! Thanks again!!! FABULOUS!!!!!

Andrew & Debra Brown, Glencorse House

We thought you were fantastic at our wedding, and did a great job of our first dance. All of our friends and family commented on how great they thought you were. Such a great range of music - something for everyone. Thank you for letting our friends play a song also, that was really special.

Mr and Mrs Nimmo, Houston House

Hi guys, Andrew and I just wanted to thank you for making our wedding so special. You did a fantastic job keeping the dancefloor busy all night, how do you do it?! You were able to read the guests so well and were able to play just the right songs at the right time! Can I be your rodey so I can hear you play every week? I'll even do it for free! Seriously though, I cannot recommend you enough, everyone was asking where I'd found you! I think a couple of our friends are looking to book you. P.S - Good luck with the christmas party nights, we are hoping to come along!

Matt & Nicki Rutlin, Isle Of Eriska Hotel

We are just so thrilled and happy that we booked you to play at our wedding. You are all such talented musicians and performers and we were so impressed with your energy and spirit - you really were truly fabulous! So many of our guests commented on how impressed they were by the range and variety of music you played and by your performances! Tony - you played our first dance so beautifully and we are and always will be so grateful for that! You also learnt another special song as a surprise for Matt which I appreciated so much. You accompanied our impromptu dance off amazingly - it was such a highlight! Thank you so very much for making our special evening so enjoyable and memorable - we could not have asked for any more! Sending much love from Chicago.

Laura & Jamie Farrell, The Coupar Institute

We can't thank you enough for playing at our wedding reception - you guys were outstanding - Tony, you are so funny to watch playing 40 instruments at once and singing! How do you do it??!! Everybody commented on how good the band were, and a few of the ladies commented on how hot you all looked also! Oo-er!brSeriously, you guys were the shizzle and we are considering getting divorced just so we can get married again and have you guys play for us! Thanks again guys!

Camille & Eden Kelliar, Western House

Brilliant', 'amazing', 'fantastic', 'unbelievable'...just a few comments from our guests! The fact no-one would leave the dance floor and were chanting 'More, More, More' say's it all! You were just fab! The range of the music along with the quality just sounded fantastic, and the horn section just added that little bit extra! What can I say - couldn't have been better! We loved the fact you were all enjoying it as much as us and our guests and thanks for learning those extra songs, loved the Stevie numbers! Hope to hear you again soon as I know a few friends now want to book you up for their big day!

Graham & Jenny Simpson, The Lodge

Hey guys - thanks for the fab entertainment last night. You were absolutely great and the events manager said that it's the first wedding they've had where every single person in the room was up dancing!!!

Mr & Mrs Bell, Airth Castle

Hey guys, just a quick post to thanks you all again for the amazing job you did at our wedding at Airth Castle. Everyone had an absolute ball and I know that everyone loved you. You played amazingly and the first dance was totally perfect...thank you! Looking forward to seeing you again at Gavin and Debra's wedding in September 08.

Mr & Mrs Daly, Stirling Highland Hotel

Just back from the most amazing honeymoon. Thanks again for everything to make our day so special, the music was spot on and exactly what we had hoped for. People spent all night dancing which is exactly what we wanted! The quality of the music you played was fantastic, this was commented on by many of the guests, some being musicians themselves. The whole experience of dealing with Aurora has been top drawer. It goes without saying that we will not hesitate to recommend you to people in the future.!

Francine & Ross - Glenskirlie Castle

Hey Tony Sorry this is me just getting back to you. We just wanted to say a massive thank you to the band for totally making our wedding day. Our guests havent stop going on about you since! I thought one of them was actually gonna become an aurora groupie and start touring with u haha. Some of our guests tried to book u but u werent available. For me it was the cherry on top of a fantastic day and you're the best wedding band i've ever heard and trust me i've been to alot of weddings!

Mr & Mrs Logan, Westerwood Hotel

We were very impressed by your performance. Both Lyndsay and I felt that the broad range of songs played and the all round feel of the band was just what we were after. Also, we were very impressed with your voice. The communication has been top notch, keeping us posed on the events such as the showcase and just generally replying to any queries in a timely manner. Definitely didn't think it would be so easy to book a band that we were so happy with. We will definitely refer you on to family and friends.

Lynne Gadziejewski, Rufflets House

It was great to hear the tracks live. It's hard to trust demo songs from a band which are posted on their websites. It was great to see how much fun you have when performing. We both loved the performance of Sex On Fire. Perfect communication, very happy with your correspondence and the quick replies to e-mails

Stefanie & Graeme Bennett, Glenskirlie Castle

We wanted to say a massive thank you for making the night a great success. Everyone has commented on the band and how good the music was, we had an absolute ball! I also wanted to personally thank you for helping Graeme with the first dance surprise and allowing my friend to sing with you, it was a fantastic surprise to get, and made our first dance one we will always remember. We will definitely be recommending you to all our friends! Take care and hope all the summer weddings are going well

Lynne & Ian Penny, Rufflets House

Just a quick email to say thanks to the most amazing wedding band ever!!!! We were so happy with your services in the run up to, and everything you did during the night. The 2 girls that have booked you to play at their weddings are most impressed, and like me are so happy with their choice of band for their most special day!

Laura & Cam, Mar Hall

We have voted for you in category number one in the VOWS awards 2009 and we are keeping our fingers crossed that you win!

I would and will recommend you to anyone wishing to make sure that their wedding was as much fun as ours was, I genuinely wish we had booked you till much later. Thanks again and good luck to all of you. Andrew

Susan & Mark Todd, Glenskirlie Castle

Now that life is sadly back to normal, Mark and I would like to say thank you for such a great night we really had a great time. The music was a great mix and there was something for everyone. It was the first time I have been to any wedding where the dance-floor was busy all night. I have had lots of praise for you guys, from our guests and I would like to pass that on to you guys and I agree you were fab. I have also started looking for another excuse to book you : Thank you again for a great night

Neil & Louise Moodie, Hilton Dunkeld

Tony, An absolute pleaseure to vote for you for the VOW awards. We were so happy you guys played at our wedding, we thought you rocked! All the guests all commented on whaty a great band and for me on a personal note I always find a wedding is normally judged on the entertainment during the evening and I had an absolute blast, so again thank you. We have already passed your name on to a lot of couples and will gladly recommend you to many more. Best of luck with the VOWS awards

Mr & Mrs McMillan, Crutherland Hotel

Hi just checking emails on phone was going to wait until we got back but just wanted to say thanks for a great night at our wedding. It went in far too fast, everyone said you were great and wanted to know the bands name. We are delighted that we booked you so thanks again! We'll be voting for you in VOWS when we get back!!

Louise & Donald, St Andrews In The Square

Thank you so much for a fantastic night, our phones have been going mad all day with calls and texts and you are the main topic of coversation!! Have submitted a VOWS nomnation.....Good Luck! Once again thank you, there were a few newly engaged couples at our wedding so expect a few phone calls!!

Crawford & Jillian, Lochside House

Hi Tony, Just wanted to send you a note to thank you and the band very much for making our wedding evening reception so memorable. We thought you guys were outstanding and enjoyed every minute. All our guests have commented what a fantastic band. We have voted for you to win a VOWS award and hope you are successful as you thoroughly deserve it! Thanks once again. Best wishes

Sarah & Stuart, Glenskirlie

Hi Tony, Just wanted to say thank you very much for playing at our wedding on the 4th April in Glenskirlie. We had lots of comments on how great you all were, one of our tables thought the first dance was being played by a cd until they realised it was you perfecting Rod Stewart! You definitely managed to suit our crowd perfectly, daft punk, faithless and calvin harris went down a storm, definitely not something you would get from a 'typical' wedding band. We wanted a band with a good mix of old, new and no cheese and you guys certainly matched this. We have voted for you in the vow awards, good luck!

Alan & Libby, Glenskirlie Castle

Hi Tony and band, You guys exceeded all expectations so much so that I spent alot of the night telling people the name of the band and agreeing how excellent you were. Thanks again, will definitely nominate you for a VOWS award as it is more than deserved All the best Alan & Libby

Lesley & Grant, Fernie Castle

Hi Tony, Just wanted to let you know that we voted for you as our top supplier in the VOWS awards. We've not sure if you get to see all the comments or not but here is what we said... The service we received from Aurora was absolutely outstanding. From the first enquiry, to the booking of the band, to the wedding day itself they were friendly, helpful and very professional. They were the only one of our suppliers who kept in contact with us throughout the year and a half between booking and the wedding day. We thought this was a very nice touch and made us most at ease. The whole wedding party & other suppliers! commented on how much they loved the band. Aurora are exceptionally talented musicians, lovely guys and well worthy of a VOWS award. Hope you win! Thanks again for everything, hope to see you again somewhere or another! Lesley & Grant xx

Sean & Kerry Keenan, Gleneagles Hotel

Hi Tony, You guys were awesome. Young and old thought you were the best they'd heard. We will def vote for you. Gleneagles have put you on their list of suggested bands. Lots of staff the next day were asking me about you guys. We had the best day and I genuinely believe you guys made that possible. Thanks again.

Lorna & Alan, Westerwood Hotel

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for Saturday night. It was an amazing day & night and a lot of the credit for the success goes directly to you. All our guests loved you as much as Alan & I did, everyone is raving about you. Thank you - I've already voted for you in the VOWs, so have 2 of my friends, Alan's going on today to vote & I've sent the link to as many as people from Saturday night as possible as I really believe you are the best wedding band in Scotland!

Erin Gray, Glenskirlie

Hi Tony Sorry this is me just getting around to replying, things are rather hectic after the wedding all my energy is gone too I have went on to VOWS and you definately deserve a vote! You were fantastic!!!! although i must admit the evening reception was a bit of a blur to me not through alcohol alone but the excitement of it all Everyone was raving about you the next day, some people were booking you for their wedding even though they are single,hmmm? The play list was amazing too, i will of course get round to writing this on a formal thank you note! Hope you are all well - enjoy the break before the wedding season kicks into full force Thanks again

Lisa Nelson, Signet Library

Hi Tony, Thank you. You guys were amazing.... exactly what we wanted but much more than we had hoped for. We would love to vote for you and will be recommending you at any opportunity. Lots of friends commented on how great the band were so you were a real hit couldn't have asked for anything more. I was saying to Ed earlier today that I wondered if we could fit you in the flat as I'd love the opportunity to hire you for another party!! Not too sure our neighbours would like the idea though. If we get any photots which we think might be of use for you we'll forward on. Thanks for creating such an amazing atmosphere for us - we had a ball. Lisa & Ed

Colin Houston, Glenskirlie House

Hi Tony Thanks for the email it's our privilege to nominate you for the VOWS AWARDS as we and the rest of the people who attending last night thought you were first class. I've been to a few weddings over the years and Aurora is by far the best I have heard. Thanks once again for making our wedding a very special day. Cheers Colin Houston
