Review Centre: Wedding Bands

"The band were absolutely fantastic and were great for a party at the pub! They drove all the way from London to North Yorkshire to play for our wedding welcome party. They played so well and got all our guests dancing all night! The choice of songs were great and all band members were really nice and professional! A big thank you to all 3 of them!"

"Hi chaps, on behalf of Karen and myself, we just wanted to say a massive thank you for making the evening do at our wedding a non-stop party. We’ve just been watching the videos back and it seems like no-one ever left the dance floor. We’ve had lots of compliments about how amazing you were and will be coming to see you soon. Cheers!"

"Thank you Anne. The string quartet were brilliant, we wished we had booked them for longer! Please pass on our thanks to them, they really added to the occasion. I hope they weren't too hot playing in to marquee, luckily we had beautiful weather but as a result it made it quite stuffy in there. Thanks again Miranda and Sam"

"Wow, what a singer! Lucy was an absolute star, travelling up from London with her guitarist to my party in the Midlands to help me out at short notice, as I was struggling to find an act I liked and was available for my birthday party. What I didn't realise was, not only is she absolutely lovely but she has an amazing voice, great range, a huge variety of songs and she even did me an Elvis number by special request. Her guitarist was a quality act too. I know there are lots of 10/10 ratings on here, but seriously I don't think you could give Lucy any less, if you hire her, she will make your event a special one."

"Widely regarded as one of Wales’ foremost traditional bands, since their formation in 1996, Allan Yn Y Fan have taken Welsh traditional music all over the world. Wednesday 28th March, however, saw the band performing closer to home with a gig at one of their favourite venues, Blackwood Miner’s Institute. The evening took the format of two halves with an interval and this six piece band entertained us with a selection of traditional Welsh songs and tunes interspersed with original compositions, mainly from the pen of founder member Kate Strudwick but also with contributions from Chris Jones and Alan Cooper. All the music was taken from across the band’s 22 year career and took us on a journey from the Festival Interceltique at L’Orient to sparsely attended performances in Ireland before returning to Wales across a stormy Irish Sea, stopping to remember Kate’s former landlady and her cat along, the way. The songs were mainly entrusted to Catrin O’Neill who, since joining the band in 2015, has taken on the role of lead vocalist and her vocal style adds a haunting quality to such songs as Dafydd Y Garreg Wen and Lisa Lân, both of which take the passing of a loved one as their subject matter, Catrin’s versatility means she is equally at home singing about hopeful love, as in Ym Mhontypridd Mae’n Nghariad, or the celebratory staples of the Mari Lwyd in Pwnco and Canu Cwnsela or rousing songs of workers' rights, as in Gorthrwm Y Gweithiwr with its dire warning to the Victorian Ironmasters of Beaufort. This evening had all the ingredients needed to make a memorable performance, six talented performers who obviously enjoy performing together and transmitted that joy through their music to an appreciative audience, a quality venue with friendly staff and a crystal clear sound system ensuring that none of the music’s nuances were lost. It was a pleasure to attend this concert and I look forward to seeing Allan Yn Y Fan perform again in the not too distant future. "

"The Velvet Tones play at our restaurant regularly. The reviews we’ve had on Google about their performances have been amazing and ticket sales for our music nights are always a sell-out! We go for the trio because we don’t have space for drums and it’s perfect because we can keep the sound to a better level so people can enjoy the music without having to shout over it to speak at dinner. Great band!"

""I booked Latina Festivale for our annual company summer party, seeing as it was a Latin-themed party the band were a perfect fit. The booking process with easy and Rory was efficient getting over all the information I needed. We split the performances into two, which got more up-tempo as the evening went on. The vocals and quality of the musicians were outstanding and the band blended in well with our guests. The live performance definitely made the party all that more memorable, I certainly recommend booking the band for your next party!""

"NTWT were absolutely amazing! They played a celebration garden party, and we couldn’t have asked for more. Chris was super helpful and communicative in advance, coming to scope out the site for the best spot, and working with us on the set list and playlist for after. Every guest I spoke to since has commented on how great they were, high energy, great fun! Couldn’t recommend highly enough! "
