"Groove Allstars are phenomenal! The process from start to finish (booking, planning with Martyn, to performance) was seamless and the team made us feel so special throughout. Thank you so much for such an incredible evening - we are still reliving every single minute and having you & the band there to play our first dance and the sets throughout the evening helped make our special day unforgettable! We have had so many comments from our guests saying how amazing you all were, so thank you so much for getting the vibe so right, for catering for the extra Super Trouper surprise from Lene's family and for supporting to make sure it ran so smoothly. The band members and the singers did such an amazing performance so we cannot thank you enough for everything you did to make this our perfect evening! Would 10000% recommend!!! Chris and Lene, Wedding at Healey Barn – 4th May 2024 "

"Hired these guys for my 30th in a pub. They absolutely smashed it! Very professional and got everyone going from the start! I would definitely recommend these and will look at trying to see them again! Thank you to all the organisers and the band for helping create such a fun night to remember!!"

"Karizma performed at our wedding in August and we cannot recommend them highly enough! The energy, enthusiasm and sheer talent the brought was phenomenal. We had really been struggling to find a band for the wedding. It was so difficult to find a group that would play live music with personality and across a range of genres. Karizma did it all and the dance floor was packed for the entire night. It made sure that the evening of our wedding was just as memorable as everything which had come before. Communications with the band were fantastic right up until the day of the wedding. They answered all of our questions and were really flexible with a number of things that we wanted. They also learned a song for our first dance, even though it was not a song that was currently in their (varied and extensive!) repertoire. We wanted a really specific version of the song - Karizma sent us a couple of drafts of how it would sound and let us choose exactly the version that we wanted. Hearing it performed live on the evening was better than we could have imagined, and it is a memory that we will treasure forever. We have lost track of the number of guests who have wanted us to pass on Karizma's details. They were so popular with every single person who attended the wedding and they spread so much fun and joy, helping to make the day a really fantastic celebration for all of us. If you are getting married or having an event of any kind we would really recommend Karizma. You absolutely will not regret it!"

"Niki and the team were absolutely fantastic! We had them for our wedding ceilidh and they really got the whole party going. They were organized and helpful in the lead up to the event, which made for smooth running on the day. We had many guests from overseas who were obviously not that well versed in the dances. Niki did an excellent job of instructing and helping them. Would absolutely recommend their services! "

" Booked the band for my daughters' wedding and they rocked. The range of their material and the ability to sound like the original artists is astounding. The Kinks, Stones, Green Day, Coldplay, U2, Lenny Kravitz, Undertones and many more. Guaranteed success for any event. Thanks guys! "

"Blue Jewel Ceilidh made my parents' 40th anniversary a roaring success! They were punctual, extremely organised, and so very talented. Excellent callers had everyone dancing, laughing and having fun and the music was fabulous. They played well known dances and some new ones which were great. They were also brilliant as they played beautiful interim music whenever needed to give people a chance to catch their breath and have a drink but not miss any dances if they wished. They gave us extra dances at the end and a few people have already taken their details for further events. A superb find, fantastic value and thank you so much. We will definitely be contacting you again in the future!"

"I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for your performance at our wedding. It was fantastic and I've had numerous comments on how great you were and people asking for your details. You kept the dancefloor going all evening and I even saw a couple of people who claim that they don't dance up there! "

"I contacted the Black Marcs when the band I had booked cancelled 2 days before my mum's birthday party. They weren't actually able to play in the end but were really helpful in recommending another, more local band that ended up doing it instead."

"Just a quick note to say thank you so much for playing so brilliantly at the event on Saturday. There has been lots of positive feedback from the event, and we really hope that you will be able to play for us again next year. Thank you especially for managing to get through the programme in such limited time, to make the evening stress free for all of us! "

"A fantastic country and western singer Lilac is, with an authentic good old country sound, for everyone to sing along too, line dance with and be country happy. Worth every penny. Don’t hesitate book now."

"Just had to email you and let you know what a delight Roger and his colleagues have been today. All were so polite and nothing was an issue or too much trouble and, of course, they were a great band. Thank you for sending them and I will be highly recommending them. "

"A huge thank you to the amazing Karizma for preforming at our wedding! You guys are super talented and absolutely rocked the party! All of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music and we loved the selection you played! On top of that, Talisha (lead singer and band manager) couldn't have been more helpful in the run up to the day - she always answered our emails promptly and was super friendly and easy to get along with! Can't recommend this band highly enough! 5 stars!"
