One word - excellent

Geko Entertainment were so great to work with helping us find the best band for our wedding party at East Afton Farmhouse, Isle of Wight. AKA wedding & party band had everyone up dancing all night and all our guests said how great they were. Everything ran so smoothly right from booking them until packing up. An excellent night and would definitely recommend finding any entertainment through them.
