"From the first conversation with Alive Network I was most impressed by their genuine interest in my event and the efficiency and professionalism with which they worked.
I decided to book through Alive Network once I had heard the demo of Big City Swing and everything seemed to be so straight forward and professionally organised - taking out all the possible anxiety of obtaining the entertainment for the evening.
All their promises were fulfilled, contract delivered on time and petty concerns allayed immediately.
Big City Swing were wonderful, gauging their audience perfectly. The volume was just right, as we were concerned it might have been too loud for guests wishing to converse. Our guests responded to their friendly manner and danced their socks off!
I would have no hesitation in recommending Alive Network and Big City Swing. Anyone wishing to enjoy live 40’s to 60’s music with an amazing saxophonist and great singer should not be disappointed."

"Thank you for making our wedding so special. We had such a fabulous evening with all our friends and family and you certainly helped get the party going with your entertainment. It really took us back to the days when we were courting when you sang all the old Dean Martin and Sinatra songs. Just what we wanted!!!
We hope to see you again at another party.

"We would just like to thank you personally for providing such brilliant entertainment on our wedding day recently. It was absolutely brilliant as we really wanted a personal touch with the kind of music that you sang.
We have had a lot of comments from people saying how good the music was and also people have been making enquiries and have asked for your details. It was a very special day for us and everything went perfectly, especially the entertainment from yourself.
Thank you once again.
