"Thank you to House of Chords, you guys got everything right on our wedding day. From the start, communication was excellent and you made Megan and I feel at ease straight away. Your repertoire was perfect for our evening celebration: cool classics and modern hits. We really enjoyed your performance and amazing vocals. We also loved having you guys there, you were so professional, setting up in the background and just integrating seamlessly with our plans. Genuinely really good guys, it felt like you were ‘guests with benefits’ a joy to talk to and get to know as well as hear play. Hope to hear you at another wedding soon. Can’t recommend you guys enough, thanks again."

"Gareth did the live music for an annual bash that we organise at our home in Sykehouse, England. We saw him perform at The local restaurant in town prior (The Old George) and decided that his extensive repertoire and personable nature would be perfect us. Despite the rain during the outdoor event, Gareth delivered a great show to a very high standard and was patient enough to wait for the rain to stop so that we could have a great night. He is highly recommended for any type of private event that someone would be looking to organise. You will not be disappointed."

"We booked the Hot Hats for our wedding party because we had seen them perform 4 years previously (when we were in the early stages of dating) and had enjoyed their performance so much that we jokingly said that we would book them for our wedding. So, 4 years later we did! And they certainly didn’t let us down. The Hot Hats were quite simply brilliant and exactly what we needed, and wanted, for our Wedding evening party. We had a small group of guests of mixed age and all were captivated by the band. Our big worry was that some of the guests would drift off to the quieter parts of the venue and no one would dance. But we needn’t have worried as the boys had their attention and had everyone up and dancing from the start. They performed modern takes on songs from a range of era’s and interspersed this with fun and charming banter. It was the perfect end to a perfect day. Communication from the point of my initial enquiry was good, they arrived nice an early to be ready to start on time. In between their 3 live sets, they also provided an appropriate playlist of music (and first dance song) to keep the evening flowing. We cannot recommend them enough – and nor can our guests based on the many positive comments we received afterwards from them."

"To be honest, I was a little apprehensive about booking Phil The Sax as he seemed to be cheaper than other quotes I received - I am so glad I did though as he was brilliant! I booked Phil for a Hen Do that was held in a large house - all throughout the booking process, Phil was very helpful - he spoke with our DJ to go through what equipment he needed and also provided us with a list of all of the songs he can play (it's a very comprehensive list!). We were able to select what songs we wanted (and he didn't mind when we added a couple of new songs!) and we also picked the order of songs. On the day, Phil arrived in good time and was happy to start his set however we wanted him to - we managed to sneak him through the main room so that when his set started, he was upstairs on a balcony - it looked fantastic, sounded even better and the hen was in complete shock! Phil played for 2 hours with our DJ, every song sounded amazing - it really felt like we were in Ibiza - we didn't stop dancing! I would really recommend Phil, I wouldn't hesitate to book him again if we have another party!"

"We hired Nightcaps in August for a surprise garden party for our son and new daughter in law. The party was beyond successful thanks to the atmosphere and glorious music provided by the band. The band were prompt, professional and provided peerless entertainment for over 2 hours. Literally, something for everyone. We can't recommend them highly enough, if you want old school service, attention to detail and a memorable event, look no further, Nightcaps are fab! "

"What an incredible band! The process was made so easy and we did not have to worry about anything through it all! Jimmy and the band got everyone up dancing, played some incredible songs and played our requests! We loved the limbo and sparklers! Everyone commented on how amazing they were and they really made our wedding next level! We danced and sung all night, and loved how friendly the band were. We would recommend in a heartbeat and wish we could live through it all again! Amazing! "

"We booked The Renegade Masters for our wedding last weekend and they were absolutely fantastic! The dance floor was full, we were absolutely loving the tunes and so many of our guests came up to us to say how much they enjoyed the music. The band did a set of classics and a set of 90s anthems so there was something for everyone, but we booked them for the 90s music in particular and they truly smashed it!!! They were one of the highlights of the day for us. They were also a total pleasure to deal with both prior to and on the day itself - really friendly and accommodating of our various requests. Thank you guys!!"
