Wedding Band Reviews

Would highly recommend them

5 stars - Sugarbeat are Highly Recommended
Dave booked Sugarbeat for their event

“I would just like to pass on some feedback regarding Sugarbeat who played at our Wedding. We found them fantastic and had so many good comments from all of our guests about them. We thought their music selection was spot on for the night (even my own parents got up on the dance floor!). Would highly recommend them to anyone else looking to hire a band for an occasion.”

I can't recommend Fraudio highly enough.

5 stars - The Rips are Highly Recommended
Rowan R booked The Rips for their event

“When we were planning our wedding reception we were looking for a band that could allow us to be loyal to our indie rock roots but at the same time be accessible and get everyone dancing. The Rips were recommended by three different people and when I contacted the band I got a swift and friendly response. They provided all the equipment and lighting so we didn't have to worry about anything and th...”“When we were planning our wedding reception we were looking for a band that could allow us to be loyal to our indie rock roots but at the same time be accessible and get everyone dancing. The Rips were recommended by three different people and when I contacted the band I got a swift and friendly response. They provided all the equipment and lighting so we didn't have to worry about anything and they even went the extra mile of learning 'our song' for the first dance. They delivered an excellent performance on the night and created an amazing atmosphere so everyone, young and old, thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I can't recommend The Rips highly enough, our reception just wouldn't have been the same if we'd had a dj. They are a professional, talented and lovely bunch of lads and we have been to see them play several times since the wedding!” Read more

Brightlights were fantastic

5 stars - Brightlights are Highly Recommended
Sue N booked Brightlights for their party in Essex

“Alive Network were very efficient and patient with answering a lot of questions and getting feedback from a few different bands. Brightlights were fantastic. It was my daughters 21st and she and her friends thought they were brilliant. They were extremely pleasant to deal with, lively, flexible and their music was excellent.

Brightlights were fantastic. It was my daughters 21st and she and her friends thought they were brilliant. They were extremely pleasant to deal with, lively, flexible and their music was excellent. We couldn’t have been more pleased as we were slightly concerned having not seen them play live. We need not have worried they were everything we hoped for and more. ALL of our guests were extremely complimentary.” Read more

“Retrospect were an absolutely fantastic band. Both my husband and I, and all of our guests were so impressed with them. They were really friendly and polite and their music was amazing!!

The lead singer has an amazing voice, and they played music to suit all tastes. Our guests were dancing all night! I even gave them a list of music to play in between which our guests had given us so that we didn't need to keep pestering them with song choices - not that they would have minded, but it meant that we got to choose a lot of the songs played with the DJ part of the night too. Our guests were still talking about how great they were weeks after. If I were ever to hold another party we would definitely invite them back. BOOK THEM - you will NOT be disappointed!!” Read more

Amazing band

5 stars - Funk Soul Stars are Highly Recommended
Colne E booked Funk Soul Stars for their event

“Amazing band...we wish you could have played all night long! Hope to have you back next year... thank you.”

Performed amazingly.

5 stars - Gold are Highly Recommended
Mark L booked Gold for their wedding in Gloucestershire

“Thank you to Alive Network and Gold for helping to make my wedding the incredible day it was. One of my only individual responsibilities for the wedding was organising the music, so I felt a good deal of pressure to make sure it was right. Alive Network was impressive due to its range of artists to choose from, but while I cannot comment on other acts, I cannot speak highly enough of Gold. They we...”“Thank you to Alive Network and Gold for helping to make my wedding the incredible day it was. One of my only individual responsibilities for the wedding was organising the music, so I felt a good deal of pressure to make sure it was right. Alive Network was impressive due to its range of artists to choose from, but while I cannot comment on other acts, I cannot speak highly enough of Gold. They were friendly and professional in the build up, but most importantly performed amazingly on the night. My major concern was keeping the dance floor full and having the energy high throughout the last few hours of the night. I think it would be fair to say the marquee was bursting with energy throughout, and I don't think I've ever seen a fuller dance floor at a wedding. I am so pleased that I booked the extra sax and trumpet, and that the band played mainly the soul/motown and disco/funk parts of their repertoire. It meant that everyone was up dancing from 20 year olds to the bride's 91 year old Grandma. They even let a friend of mine butcher 'Wonderful Tonight' during their break! Really couldn't have been better in any way, other than an extra 3 hours dancing! 5 stars.” Read more
