Review Centre: Musicians Services

"I booked Chris for my wedding in September and my husband and I are so pleased we did! From the initial booking Chris was great with communication - friendly and really clear in setting out the service options available to us. On the day itself, he was crucial in ensuring that everything ran smoothly (music obviously being a huge part of a wedding!). The day was brilliant and entirely stress free for both of us. In addition to managing the playlists & audio, Chris also facilitated my sister singing, which was such a special part of the day. Thanks very much! :D"

"This was my first time using Chris and it was for a musical theatre production of 'Godspell' at the Hasland Theatre. Chris came recommended by a friend of mine (Adam Parrish) after he did the sound engineering for a concert Adam had recently done with Gordon Giltrap. Well what can I say - Chris did an amazing job! He came along for a preliminary meeting with me where we looked around the venue, talked about the requirements for the show which included a live 4 piece band and 10 wireless headset radio mics. Chris then gave a full explanation of what equipment he thought was required to make a great sound within the venue, how much time he would have to dedicate to the project and from that came up with a quote for us. We confirmed it all over email and then it was just a matter of waiting for show week to roll around. This came at the end of March and Chris arrived with all the equipment he needed and got set up ready to go. It was great that the equipment he had was all digital and took up a very small amount of space and that he was able to control it all from his iPad at the back of the theatre, since there was literally no room for him to be anywhere else. Several of the band members commented on how great it was that Chris asked them before every show about their individual monitor mixes, if anything needed changing, if Chris needed to be aware of any issues from previous nights etc and are still talking about it now as something like that which seems really obvious and simple makes a huge difference to those playing and performing. Nothing was too much trouble for Chris even when I had to ask for some additional monitors to be placed on the stage as the actors were struggling to hear the musicians he just turned up with speaker stands and monitors and got them plugged in and ready for the following nights performance. Amazing! It is also important to note Chris's attitude throughout the entire process. Putting on a musical is an exceedingly stressful thing to do and I was having to think about a lot of things throughout the run, but Chris remained calm, level-headed and had a very calming presence which was commented on by several cast members and others within the creative team, which is just what you want in a high stress environment. He was great to work with and lots of laughs were had throughout the week amongst the whole team who he worked well with. A very quick and speedy break down and get out on the Saturday night wrapped everything up nicely. Thanks so much for the time and effort you put into making our show sound amazing and we really cannot wait to be working with you again hopefully in the very near future."

"Absolutely first class! Chris and Olly managed to transform our bare, run down marquee into an inviting, charming place for our Great Gatsby Ball. Chris worked alongside us helping with ideas and suggestions and was on hand for site visits and available to talk through the plans whenever we needed. Everyone who attended couldn't believe the transformation and amazing atmosphere all the lighting and sound helped to create. We will definitely be working with Core Events again in the future and couldn't recommend them highly enough."

"I Can highly recommend TMS AV hire. They provided sound and lighting for our wedding venue, for the ceremony and running right through to the evening do. The lighting was AMAZING and totally transformed the venue, every effort was made to make it look extra special and this was really appreciated by us and noticed by all the guests. So many people were impressed with the lighting including the venue themselves. The brilliant sound engineering enabled the ceremony to run very smoothly and the evening do to be a fantastic party.

"Phil, thank you so much for being SUCH a big part of the success of our wedding. I was so nervous, and our pre-wedding consult set me at ease because I realised that you knew how to read a room and determine the music from there. That's all we wanted, for the music to narrate the wedding from start to finish. We wanted the music to initially not be intrusive but rather be the backdrop to this magical and glorious day. A day we could play over and over again in our heads because it was so perfect. But then you knew exactly when to ramp it up and take us to the next level. Perfect transitions! A master of ceremonies indeed! Your Sax playing was soooo cool and my guests loved it, we really felt the Ibiza chill vibe turn into a massive dance party. Just what I wanted! I love how you worked seamlessly with my band, which was no easy task since the music was very different from your set. It worked perfectly! Again, we cannot thank you enough and I want to have another party just so I can work with you again! Thank you, Phil, for bringing your expertise and love of music, dance, and VIBE to our once-in-a-lifetime wedding. We are truly grateful!"

"Great communication from making an enquiry to actually booking the event. Very fast at responding to messages and polite friendly and professional. We had Justin for a 30th birthday Party. Arrived early and introduced himself and asked about what sort of things we wanted which I thought was great. Had most people on the dance floor all evening and played some good games to get the night going and everyone appeared to have a good evening. Thank you! Would definitely recommend and use again."

"We inquired with Exclusive Party DJs for our wedding and pre party and we were not disappointed. The attention to detail and tailored personal experience was second to none. After we contacted them they arranged an appointment to discuss the packages that they offer and were extremely flexible with the service that they were able to provide. They provided us with plenty of information regarding what they could do for us, and asked for plenty of information in return. This ranged from the plan of the event from the other vendors, special songs, shoutouts, dedications, family and friends information, all to ensure the smoothest experience and a personalised touch. I will be recommending them to all family and friends and will definitely use them again in the future!"

"Absolutely unbelievable band! They nailed the exact vibe I wanted and managed to pack so many incredible songs into their set. They had the whole room up dancing, singing, and just loving every second, they truly made my engagement party unforgettable. I’d book them again in a heartbeat! A huge thank you - 10/10 doesn’t even cover it!"
