Customer feedback...
The Dollars take huge pride in working specifically to the client’s needs. They are easy to deal with and happy to suggest ideas to make your event run the best way possible. Just take a look at these previous clients’ testimonials…

"Booking The Dollars through Alive Network was easy with all my questions answered and everything confirmed so quickly. The Dollars were absolutely fantastic they got in touch with me several times before the party to check what we wanted and to confirm arrangements. On the night they were brilliant excellent musicians who really got the party going - so many of our guests commented on how great they were! I wouldn't hesitate to book them again and again!!" – Sarah’s wedding Warwickshire

"The Dollars did a great job at my wedding they got everyone going and at one point (during Mr Brightside) there were some concerns the dancefloor was going to collapse! Everyone I spoke to had nothing but praise for them and given that Superfly (now the Feeling) played to much the same crowd for my sister-in-law's wedding that was some achievement. On top of this they were so pleasant and easy to deal with....I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them" - Chris Ward.

"The audience loved the band's performance which was inkeeping with the event...fun loud and varied! The DJ set used music that was spot on! …Thanks for making it a great night!" - Peninsula Graduation Ball Committee

"We had a great party thanks largely to The Dollars. They were fantastic - they had the dance floor packed from beginning to end and played a great selection of songs to suit everyone's taste - and we had a broad spread of age groups there. Matt also went to some lengths to tailor the between-set music to exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot lads - you gave us a great night everyone has been saying how good you were. We're more than happy to recommend The Dollars…" - Nicola Warhurst

"I can thoroughly recommend this group… They were totally professional from the way they set up to their playing to their mixing with our guests. I should say that our guests' average was over 60 and yet almost everyone was still dancing at the end of the evening and everyone said how much they had enjoyed the music" – Marion Dowding

"The Dollars were a great young and talented band providing all what they promised and delivering it on the night. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any type of event from New Year Eve Celebrations Weddings corporate Dinners and so on. They can cover the entire spectrum of artists and types of music to suit". – Ramada Jarvis Hotel Brighton

The Dollars will happily adjust the volume of their music to suit your needs though it is always recommended you check with your venue first when considering booking a rock and pop band due to the nature of the music they play.

"I can honestly say that The Dollars were one of the best highlights of our wedding and were absolutely fantastic.

Everyone got up dancing and stayed there all the time the band were playing including myself. I was absolutely exhausted but could not resist dancing to the great songs they were playing. The band were professional, prompt, smartly dressed and clearly enjoyed what they were doing.

We had lots of guests comment on how great they were including some of the staff at the venue saying they were the best band they had had there! I cannot rate them highly enough and they made our wedding even more memorable and special than it already was.

I would like to thank them very much for playing at our wedding and I wish them every success in the future as they definately deserve it!"

"We booked The Dollars for our wedding reception on Saturday 27th March 2010. They were fantastic and kept the night buzzing and the dancefloor bursting at the seams. Even inbetween sets the music they played was perfect.

As usual at a wedding party the age varied from 2y-80+. However everyone was catered for and the sound and the equipment were excellent. All the band were very friendly, approachable, and well presented.

If your thinking of booking a band for wedding/party etc we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE DOLLARS, and would definitely book them again in the future.

We would also like to thank Alive Network for the making it so easy to book, and for excellent communication. We hope that you can use this as a recommendation on The Dollars webpage.

Thanks again
