Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"House of Chords played for our wedding on Friday (15/06/18), and we would recommend them so highly! They learnt our first dance (Paramore – Still Into You), and it was such a good cover! All our guests had a really good time and they had everybody up on the dance floor whenever they were playing. They handled our requests brilliantly and planned their sets in the perfect order over the evening, and are really nice guys in general. While we were planning our wedding, they were really responsive and were always happy to talk through our plans for the day. We felt completely at ease and were happy to leave the nights entertainment in their hands. Thanks so much!"

"The Encores played at our wedding in August and were fabulous. Nothing was any trouble for them and they even learned our first dance song which was amazing. All our guests thought they were brilliant and they had everyone on their feet! Great memories. Thank you The Encores."

"Nothing but amazing things to say about Dave! He was so good playing to all our guests and we can’t thank him enough for making our day even more special. We were so impressed by his talent and the vibes he brought! 10/10 and I’m sure everyone at our wedding would say the same!"

"We've seen Ben and The Shamrock Experience before (at a local pub where they were playing) and I asked them to play at my 50th. Communication beforehand was perfect and Ben made sure that he and the DJ were in tune so as not to overlap on the night. The evening itself was amazing, with lots of dancing and enjoyment. Whilst I doubt any of us will be winning any competitions any time soon, everyone has said what a great time it was and how good the Ceilidh band were."

"Thank you for entertaining our guests at our wedding reception on Saturday. You guys were amazing and all of our guests commented on how great you all were. Thank you for taking the time to learn our favourite bewitched song, it got everyone in the mood for dancing the night away. Xxx "

"Many, many thanks for playing at our wedding, having heard you play before at a friend's wedding we knew that you'd be excellent and have everyone up on the dance floor, we weren't disappointed. Lots of people have commented as to how good you were, and the staff at the Homeward Park Hotel said you were the best band to play there in a long time. We'd be happy to recommend you to anyone."

"Completely unique act that got the party started. They even focused on the client and created a unique experience by writing them a personalised song. "

"I booked W!RED for the 3rd time in less than 12 months to host the entertainment for our Xmas party nights at Nailcote Manor. Once again W!RED brought the party. They tailored there set perfectly to suit the broad range of our guests and kept the dance floor full from start to finish. We have more bookings for the band throughout 2024 and can't wait to welcome them back"

"As a wedding venue we get to listen to a huge range of bands with prices varying from £500-£5,000. Sadly price has nothing to do -or so it seems- with professionalism, personality and ability! Jolly Polly and the Pirates is very much at the bottom end of this price spectrum, but very, very much at the top of the performance ratings! To sum them up? They are musicians with really nice personalities who have great technical ability and understanding of sound, mixing and the audience. On bass guitar and vocals is Polly, who is probably one of the most energetic singers we have come across, with great variations, presence and depth. On lead guitar (and keys) Jon has great technical skills and enthusiasm for his role in the band, and on drums (and occasionally keys at the same time!!) a drummer who actually loves his drums - at last someone who realises drums are an instrument, not an object to take out your aggression on, perhaps that is down to his experience and talent. Individually they are great - as a band they are awesome! - Certainly at the top of our list and always hoped for! Alpheton Hall Barns - Historic Suffolk Wedding Venue "

"Jess, thank you so much for yesterday. You have a stunning voice, beautiful musicality and the band were fantastic. Everyone really enjoyed it (although no one more than me!) Please pass my sincere thanks onto the band. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help your business (recommendations etc). Thanks, Alex xx"

"When you start planning your wedding, there are lots of factors that you need to take into account, however for me, the music was everything. I called The Covered Band, and spoke to John. From the moment we started talking about my ideas, i immediately felt at ease. We wanted a Country and Western wedding, and this may not be an easy request for some bands, For John, he seemed even more excited than me, that's when i realised, i needed this band, to perform on our day. The enthusiasm and professionalism all the band provided, was the highlight of the day, not to mention the encouragement before hand. I had requested a few of our favourite songs, even the request to use my father's guitar for some songs, as these were really important for us. John always replied, sure, and i honestly couldn't of been happier to know that he was onboard, and was prepared to make sure our wedding would be remembered in years to come. Imagine, being on the dance floor, with all your friends and family, smiles on everyone's faces, whilst dancing like their having the time of their lives. I stood back, for a slight second, to admire that moment. It was truly spectacular!! If you are considering having a band, for your wedding, this is most definitely, the band you need to book. I just wish I could do it all over again and couldn't recommend them highly enough."

"We asked The Soul Way to play at our wedding day after great reviews of her ability to get a party started. She did not disappoint. Her judgement of mood and ability to energise the whole of our extremely diverse crowd was incredible. Jocee is an example of a professional quality musician, she was timely and reliable in her communication and brought a top class flawless performance. They balanced brilliant vocals with entertainment and energy, bringing dancing and laughter to us all. I would never hesitate to recommend or book them again myself. "
