Absolutely incredible!
We had Lazy Marmalade perform for our wedding reception on 2nd November and they were absolutely amazing! They were amazing through the booking process, super quick at replying to all our questions and on the day they performed both the father daughter dance, and our first dance live for us - even personalising the first dance! They even re-performed one of my favourite songs when I missed it due to some impromptu photos! They had people on the dance floor all night long and everybody loved them. Cannot recommend these guys enough, absolutely amazing!

Amazing !!!!!!!
Already just over a week on from our amazing wedding, that was made unbelievable by this amazing duo!
We knew we wanted these guys from the minute my husband found them on Tik tok ( yes it was THAT video haha!) - we even moved our original wedding date so we could make sure they were available !
We booked lazy marmalade to play our drinks reception and evening at lodore falls and they did not disappoint.
Lovely chilled out vibes and brilliantly performed drinks reception, followed by a perfectly performed first dance of Ed Sheeran’s Tenerife sea, we think it might have been better than Ed’s! Then packed dance floor all night when the night kicked off! These guys are fantastic! They get everybody of all ages into their dancing shoes.
We could not fault one thing about Alex and Jon from their performances, their talent and how they compliment each other perfectly!
They aren't just a brilliant wedding band but also brilliant people too, they were so easy and very organised through enquiries and booking aswell as keeping in touch the entire way up to the wedding day.
Everybody who attended our wedding has mentioned just how good they were to us and we have zero regrets booking these two!
If you've been looking at them and wondering for your big day or special occasion, don't think about it, just do it! You will not be disappointed! There is a reason the guys have so many flawless reviews and we can now personally vouch for them too!
We loved them so much there's even been talk of booking them when it's one of our next big birthdays already!
We can't thank the guys enough, we just wish we could write a review that did them complete justice for just how amazing they were!
Thank you for making our day incredible!

Where to even start …
Both Alex and Jon were amazing from the moment I first contacted them to them leaving after providing us with the most incredible and memorable wedding day music! As a bride organising your wedding, you want your suppliers to be on the ball and attentive, which is exactly what Lazy Marmalade are.
They both made our day so perfect from start to finish, they are incredibly talented, from learning our first dance song to providing our guests with amazing music all day.
I cannot recommend them enough !!
Thanks guys, you were such a huge part of our day and it wouldn’t have been as perfect if we hadn’t of booked you !

Book them!
Mr & Mrs Griffith here! We would love to say a massive thank you to Alex & Jon for our amazing playlist on our wedding day. Thank you also for traveling up to Wyresdale Park in Scorton! It’s not round the corner from yourselves so we appreciate you saying yes and traveling up.
We appreciate you learning our first dance, Blink 182 - First Date. Not your typical wedding song but they learnt it the way we wanted it played which was slow and wedding like.
We had Lazy Marmalade booked from after our ceremony, so they opened our drinks reception for us!
They both played a bit of music for all age groups but we’re happy to take requests. They played everything we asked for when filling in their forms.
Would definitely, highly, 100% recommend Lazy Marmalade to anyone looking for their perfect band for their perfect big day.
Can’t wait to see you guys in November and will see you in the future around Telford.
Rachel & Steven Griffith!

Life of the party
Alex and Jon are not only super talented at their craft, but are genuinely there to ensure you and your guests have the most incredible time possible. They sent the recording of our first dance song early so we could choreograph a dance to it, they were super responsive and replied in detail to any question I had. The evening flew by and most guests never left the dance floor as the bangers just kept on coming. Couldn't have imagined a better band to play, thanks again Alex & Jon

Does it get any better?
Working with Lazy Marmalade was a dream. We live in California but were planning a wedding in the UK, which made hiring vendors feel like a bit of a gamble. Jon took us through the process beautifully. We always had clear and direct communication, he took the time to learn a few songs that were specifically important to us, and when the band showed up on the day of the wedding they already felt like old friends. Our guests could not believe how incredible they sounded — during the cocktail hour before the wedding breakfast, many of our guests simply stood around in awe, watching the Lazy Marmalade performance with undivided attention. We’ll forever be grateful to them and the memories they helped us form. Truly perfect experience and something we will treasure forever.

Gavin and Laura - American Museum Bath
Laura and I had the pleasure of lazy marmalade performing at our wedding in Bath. They were exceptionally professional, presentable, and approachable throughout our journey together. They have an exceptional sound that turns well known classics into edgy masterpieces. They have incredible energy which was infectious. Laura is a musician with a keen ear for good musicianship, and she loved them. I don’t think there can be a better endorsement than that.

Highlight of the wedding!!
We booked Alex and Jon to play all day at our wedding and it was the best decision I made! Throughout the planning and lead up to the day their communication was amazing and sorted everything music wise without me having to do anything which made for such stress free organising. Such lovely guys that will definitely make you feel at ease.
My requested down the aisle song (which they learnt) was just stunning. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room and I truly believe it was mostly due to them creating such a magical environment.
For the evening again they knew exactly what would get everyone on the dance floor!!! There was not one song where everyone wasn’t up dancing and having the best time. Weeks later how good lazy marmalade were is still a topic of conversation I regularly have with most of the guests in attendance.
Thankyou Jon and Alex for making our wedding such a great day and for just being amazing people!

Absolutely Amazing!
Massive thank you to Alex and Jon you were both amazing on our wedding day and gave it something different to remember. So many of our guests have mentioned how good you were and what a lovely idea it was to have you both singing.
We had lazy marmalade for our ceremony songs and after while we had drinks and canapés and how lovely that was before the rain arrived. That didn’t stop Alex and Jon though they quickly moved all their equipment in to the teepee and carried on. Honestly we are so glad we chose you for our day. Would definitely recommend you!
Thank you so so much x

Cannot recommend enough!
My sister came across Lazy Marmalade when we were looking for our wedding band and after watching a few of their videos we knew they were the wedding band for us - from the style of their music to the variety of songs they perform, they were the perfect fit for our day.
We originally enquired about their Gold package which covered the evening but decided to book their Silver package which included our daytime drinks reception as well and I'm so glad we did! They played outside and really contributed to a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
On the evening they really got the party going, introducing our cake cutting, playing our first dance song live followed by two lively and engaging live sets which kept the dancefloor full. Their DJ set in between also perfectly captured all of the songs we had requested. You really do get the benefit of booking a full band and a DJ when you book Lazy Marmalade!
Alex and Jon are both really nice, down-to-earth people. Their personable nature really shines through - from initially enquiring with them, through to the day itself where they always make sure they have a photo with the bride and groom, they were so friendly and responsive and made the whole process of booking them feel so easy.
We can't wait to see them live again at their gig in November and would 100% recommend to anyone getting married!

A MUST have for your wedding!
I can't recommend Lazy Marmalade enough!
I first saw them on TikTok years ago and knew if I ever got married I needed them at my wedding.
From the first conversation with Alex and Jon they kept us in the loop, answered any questions we had straight away and made us feel so relaxed.
On the wedding day they blew us away. The music is absolutely incredible and they are both so kind and lovely. We had a few specific requests and they really did us proud, nothing was too much trouble at all.
The private last dance they provided for myself and my now husband is something we will treasure forever. They helped clear the dancefloor just so we could have that 4 minute dance to ourselves, and for that alone we cannot thank them enough.
Since the wedding we have had so many messages telling us how incredible Lazy Marmalade were. We really wish we could relive the whole day again.
Thank you so much Jon and Alex, from the bottom of our hearts.
