"Dermot added something truly special to a difficult day, being my mother-in-law's funeral, but a combination of his professionalism, artistry and sensitivity made a deep impression on everyone there. On top of that, the speed with which Sarah-Jane arranged things with Dermot at very short notice helped enormously in smoothing the arrangements for the whole day. Thank you!"

"The dance floor was full all night. The band were amazing and all our guests commented how good they were. We wanted a cover song for our first dance but wanted it changed for it to fit in with another track, and slowed down they managed this no problem. They called to let us hear it in advance and steadied any worries we had before the wedding. Even at the end of the night I was offered a go on the drums and was given a wee lesson. Great fun would definitely recommend them. A lovely bunch of people and very warm and welcoming. Thanks guys for the sharing our special night with you. A night definitely to remember. Xx"

"Danny made our christening celebration so special from start to finish. His performance was seamless and created a wonderful atmosphere all afternoon. We would love to work with Danny again for future events and just wanted to say a huge thank you for everything you did to tailor your music and tone to our specific requirements."

"Georgia was fantastic. She met up with us prior to our wedding and was very receptive to our ideas an requests for the day - she learned quite a few songs for us. The songs she played during the ceremony came across perfectly and were exactly what we wanted and the set she performed during our drinks reception was equally impressive. All of our guests commented on how good she was, so we were extremely happy with how it all went and we would definitely recommend her to others."

"Hi Gordon, Happy new year! Apologies for the delay in getting back to you we've just got home from our wedding. Thank you so much for playing at our wedding and being patient with ourselves and guests trying to learn some of the dances! It was so much fun and our guests told us how much they enjoyed themselves. Thanks again and all the best for the new year. "

"I just wanted to take a moment and send you a note of thanks for the performance thatJock Rock turned in on July 1st at our daughter's wedding. We have all seen bands that simply mail it in and go through their sets as if they justwant it to be over with. The energy and enthusiasm that the band generated at our reception was simply infectious and you ignited the entire crowd into a wonderful frenzy. The Scots, Brits, Irish, Americans and others in our audience had the best time ever and couldn't tell us enough how much they loved your performance. But in addition to showing us that you are world-class entertainers, I was also very touched by your humanity. We are an extremely close family so in all candour it is sometimes difficult for me to have my daughter live across the pond where I don't get to visit with her as often as I can with her two sisters who live in the States. Her favourite song is Somewhere Over the Rainbow because it speaks to her in a very real way. We were disappointed when we learned that the band did not have that song on your playlist because we thought that it would make the Father/Daughter dance is so incredibly meaningful. One of the greatest surprises of the night was when we realized that you had taken the time to learn the song and played it for us for our dance. You took the time and effort to emotionally connect with the bride and her father on her special day and we can't thank you enough for that. "

"They were absolutely fantastic. The dance floor was full all night, and they interacted with guests so well. One of our nephews was invited on stage with them for a guitar solo which he LOVED and was such a nice touch. Can't recommend Straight Up enough. "

"When we were looking for the band for our wedding, we wanted a band that had a wide variety of songs from different eras in their repertoire with the ability to perform big powerful ballads and that is exactly what we go with W!RED. As soon as we heard Sue’s incredible voice. We knew they were the band for us and booked them. As soon as we got a couple of months of the wedding I dropped Sue a message. She called me back and was really helpful and reassuring and put me in touch with another member of the band Martin. We arranged a call to go over the details. Martin was friendly and welcoming straight away. Never having booked a band before we didn’t know how much or how little we’d need to be involved, but Martin simply went through a few details with us and then handled the rest. Prior to our wedding Martin took the trouble to edit a pre-recorded dedication. Together with our choice of first dance songs, so that it all went smoothly on the night. He also sent over their set list so we could make some requests. On the night, the band set-up quickly and without fuss and had a playlist on as early as they could to get our guests warmed up. Martin had a quick chat with me about timings for the evening for our cake cutting and first dance, then as soon as that was complete they went straight into their sets and had everyone up on the dance floor for the rest of the night, even finishing with a couple of encores. They were then good enough to leave a playlist running whilst they packed away. Meaning that we had music right up to the end of the evening. Everybody in the band was friendly and helpful. Particularly Martin. That’s not to mention that they are also frankly brilliant at what they do. Sues’s voice is incredible and recordings we heard before as good as they are don’t do it justice. Many guest commented on how much they enjoyed the performance. They even got the seal of approval from a few people I know who are musically hard to please. A brilliant night, enhanced by W!RED. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone "

"If you are considering hiring Love For Sale to play your event then go for it. We have hired them for the last three years to play an annual reception and they never disappoint. They play a great mix of songs and really enhance the atmosphere. I noticed plenty of our guests smiling and tapping their feet as they enjoyed the music. They are always organised, prompt, friendly and professional. This year we had to change the location where they set up to play in the venue at short notice and they had no problem at all with this and just set up and got to playing. They are a very talented and friendly group of professionals. We look forward to seeing all of you again next year!"

"Tashara performed twice on our Piano Stage at Hope Festival this year. We all hope she will return next year as she was one of the highlights of the weekend. All of us that were fortunate enough to hear her sing were astounded and delighted by the quality of her performance and charmed by the warmth of her personality. Tashara, we would love you to help us celebrate Hope Festival's 25th anniversary next year, you were brilliant!"
