Sarah W booked Happy Hour for their wedding in Staffordshire

“We booked Happy Hour to provide our Wedding evening entertainment and couldn't be happier with the band that we chose. They were absolutely brilliant and all of our guests were raving about them days after the Wedding.

They were absolutely brilliant and all of our guests were raving about them days after the Wedding. Not only were they professional and punctual they are also very friendly (my mother-in-law described them at 'lovely young men'). Gemma our co-ordinator was also very helpful and friendly - we really can't fault any aspect of the service provided by Alive Network. From start to finish the whole process was made very easy and booking through an agent helped to put our minds at rest. I would/have recommended both Happy Hour and Alive Network to all of my family and friends! ” Read more

Heather T booked Gypsy Rogues for their wedding at Nuthurst Grange Hotel in Warwickshire

“Gypsy Rogues were an excellent addition to our wedding. They were professional and very flexible which is important at a wedding as things do not always run to time. They provided a great atmosphere for the whole evening and several people commented on how fun they were.

They were professional and very flexible which is important at a wedding as things do not always run to time. They provided a great atmosphere for the whole evening and several people commented on how fun they were. The music they played was of an excellent standard and they got everyone up and dancing for the ceildh songs, whilst many people also danced when they were playing their "background" music. They did everything we asked them to do for the DJ set and they music was absolutely perfect for us- a good mixture of everything we suggested put together really well. Overall the band really made the night for us, several people who profess never to dance were on the dance floor and by the end of the night, people were protesting when the DJ set had to finish.” Read more

Tom R booked Groove City for their wedding at Swinton Park in North Yorkshire

“I'm not exactly sure how to express this strongly enough, but Groove City are immense! A few weeks ago we went to see the Kings of Leon and they weren't as good as Groove City!

Friendly, entertaining, engaging, organised, flexible and great musicians! They also played the piano during our drinks reception... near on 2 hours of great piano playing without using any sheet music - very impressive!! Wherever your party is in the country and whatever you are celebrating, book Groove City! It will be one of the best decision you ever make! ” Read more

“It was so easy booking the Swing Smiths through Alive Network and Graham was very patient whilst we deliberated over having a 5 or 7 piece band. The Swing Smiths were a fantastic band and even though our guest weren't necessarily familiar with some of their repetoire they still managed to whip up the crowd and have us yelling for more at the end of the evening!”
