Everyone had a great time although the birthday girl went into shock and ended up in bed but other than that everything went smoothly.
Thanks again and we would definitely recommend Owen."

"Booking through Alive Network was very easy. They helped us choose the artist and made sure everything ran smoothly.
Owen H was extremely professional, from agreeing the playlist beforehand to his superb performance we could not have asked for more.
Owen H's rendition of our first dance, which we asked to him learn was brilliant & helped make our special day.
I would book him again without hesitation.

"Hi Owen,
Just about back to normality again now after our wedding. Even got as far as going back to work (not out of choice but needs must)!
Anyway, just wanted to say a huge thankyou from both myself and Suzanne for the two sets you performed at Ringwood Hall, Chesterfield for our wedding on the 22nd June. We have had nothing but complements about how good the sets were and how good you sounded!
We can honestly say it was a fantastic evening and you absolutely made the evening that bit more special which is just what we were after!
We will be recording This Morning tomorrow! Good luck with that! Very
exciting times. We are loving the new album and have become Honey Ryder fans too, so perhaps we will get down to see you in concert one of these days!
Anyway, thanks once again for helping make our evening reception so
special. I have attached a couple of snapshots taken on the night!
Regards
Andy and Suzanne

"Owen was fantastic - friendly, professional and cheerful throughout the whole process. He provided us with great flexibility on the day by putting back his start time so our guests could enjoy the nice summer evening for longer. He did a great encore playing for longer than we would have expected.
Friends and family have already asked how they can book him. The Alive Network made the booking easy, responding to emails quickly and made the whole process hassle free."

"I found booking with Alive Network very easy and comprehensive. They were very helpful and professional at all times.
Owen was brilliant and I had quite a few people saying how good he was. It made such a nice change to have a musician instead of a DJ. "

"Alive Network were easy to contact and make the booking with. We had not heard of the company and so a small up-front cost and then the rest of the payment on the day gave us reassurance. There were no problems or difficulties with finding the artist to suit our needs using the site and availability was easy to identify.
Owen H was terrific, playing a wide range of songs that we had been able to choose from a playlist he had provided. He was really friendly and accommodating with the timings of his sets on the day. Many of our guests commented on Owen and were enjoying the music. We would highly recommend Owen H.

"We cannot recommend Owen H highly enough! He was so professional and also friendly. He rang us before to discuss the music and his set lists as well as emailing us his sets but was open to any changes we wanted. He also learnt our first dance song and it was a brilliant rendition.
He genuinely has an excellent voice and is an accomplished guitarist. All of our guests were very complimentary and he got people dancing and gave us a brilliant night.
The DJ that came too was also excellent, happy to take requests and also friendly but professional.
The whole experience with Alive Network was easy, secure and hassle free, we give Owen, his DJ and Alive Network 10 out of 10.

"The service we received from Clare at Alive Network and from Owen was superb. Everything was dealt with very professionally and any queries or questions were answered quickly which meant we had one less thing to worry about in the run up to the day.
Being able to speak with Owen and look over the set lists beforehand was great, and he was very accommodating to any changes we wanted to make. We had so many compliments on the day on Owen's performance - he was an absolute hit! His performance was fantastic and he judged the tone of the day perfectly.
I would recommend him to anyone and would book him again in an instant. Thank you Owen for helping to make our day so wonderful."
