"The Lisbon Swing Band were amazing at the E-Commerce Connect event held at the Grande Real Villa Itália Hotel & Spa. Their performance added a fantastic vibe to the event, creating an energetic and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone. The music was lively and perfectly matched the mood of the event."
"We just wanted to send across a huge thank you for the wonderful ambience you created at our wedding! Everyone absolutely loved you and the music, it was such a beautiful, seamless transition from the ceremony to the cocktails. Thank you for being part of creating the most magical day of our lives. We hope you enjoyed the day too, and that you were well taken care of! Let us know wherever we can leave you guys reviews - and we’ll try to collate some photos/videos (in case you want for PR material) that we can send across in case they are of help :) Thank you so so so much once again for being part of creating the best day of our lives. On behalf of all our wedding guests, sending you a huge thank you and our best wishes for all your future gigs! We hope to see you all again soon (let us know if you’re coming over to play in London - we’ll be there!) Best wishes, Alex & Winnie."
