Bertie M booked The Marlins for their wedding in Northumberland • October 2025
“The Marlins brought the party to our wedding and had everyone up on the dance floor grooving from start to finish. Couldn't have asked for anything more! Very relaxed and professional in their approach to everything and accommodating of requests such as first dance choice. Would highly recommend them”
Mike S booked The Marlins for their wedding in North Yorkshire • August 2025
“Oliver and the band were fantastic they made our wedding day they are incredibly professional and talented artists. Everything ran so smoothly and despite us not being on time with the first dance they just effortlessly adjusted their set for us. It was so lovely to see so many of our guests up and dancing. They are very talented individually who can not only perform to a very high standard but can also deal with organising and planning an event. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in future .”
Varied music and songs to suit very varied mixture of guests.
