5 stars - Academy are Highly Recommended
Debbee D booked Academy for their wedding in London

“From initial enquiry to the band striking their first note at our wedding we were really happy with the service, communication and personality of Alive Network. The band were absolutely superb, my guests danced to the very first song and everything in between until they had to end. I was impressed with their image, quality and just the personality and friendliness of the band members.

The band were absolutely superb, my guests danced to the very first song and everything in between until they had to end. I was impressed with their image, quality and just the personality and friendliness of the band members. However what really edged it for us was their playlist. They have a great repertoire and they do them all excellently. THANK YOU, we had an amazing wedding and Academy were a big part of that!” Read more

“We are finally back into the swing of things and back to reality (which is utterly depressing) and am getting round to thanking everyone for making our day absolutely amazing, including yourselves!!

We had so many compliments about how good you were and I'm so happy the dance floor was packed from start to finish. Which of course I knew it would be as they follow lead from me! Slight party animal. The extra songs you learnt were amazing and went down fantastically well!! You should definitely add them to your repertoire. They were my favourite of the whole night. And it was great to see you guys enjoying yourselves too as there's nothing worse than seeing bands disinterested in their sets! All in all a massive success!! We will definitely recommend you to family and friends, although you sold yourselves brilliantly on the night so no need!! I'll be sure to email any photos that you feature in so you can use as you wish. I'm sure they'll be plenty of the packed dance floor!! Please pass our thanks onto the rest of the band and of course the DJs who stayed until the very end delivering the quality tunes!! Thank you so much again, Jodie and Chris!” Read more

In The Red were the perfect compliment to the cocktail party.

Manisha booked In The Red for their event

“I recently hired In The Red for my husbands 40th birthday. Charlotte and Matt were the perfect compliment to the cocktail party. They were happy to work with us on the set list prior to the party. They played to the room, Charlotte has an amazing voice, had everyone from baby to senior dancing away. From slow mellow background music during the buffet to 70's to current dance music, the music was f...”“I recently hired In The Red for my husbands 40th birthday. Charlotte and Matt were the perfect compliment to the cocktail party. They were happy to work with us on the set list prior to the party. They played to the room, Charlotte has an amazing voice, had everyone from baby to senior dancing away. From slow mellow background music during the buffet to 70's to current dance music, the music was fabulous. It was a great delight to have In the Red perform at the party, I am hoping to have the pleasure again as I feel very comfortable recommending them to my own clients as I work in the events field.” Read more

5 stars - Hipster are Highly Recommended
Lucy T booked Hipster for their wedding in Hertfordshire

“If you're contemplating booking Hipsters because of a recommendation, your own research or have come across this act by pure luck....book them & don't think twice about it. We had an amazing wedding; from the dress (of course!), to the venue, food & guests...it was great... but quite honestly, it was the band who took it from a great wedding, to an unforgettable one.

We had an amazing wedding; from the dress (of course!), to the venue, food & guests...it was great... but quite honestly, it was the band who took it from a great wedding, to an unforgettable one. Not just for us but our guests too. One of our guests was just outside & genuinely thought we'd booked The Killers. Ok, he'd had a drink ...but it shows you the standard. Sod the Killers...we had the Hipsters! We had 2 sets satisfying both the older & younger guests, who were commenting on them all night. I've been to weddings where dance floors have been lacking & that was probably my biggest fear going into the day. Turns out, we should have made the dance floor bigger. It was heaving. My favourite memory of the day by far was definitely when I stood still for a moment, trying to make sure I absorbed as much of the wedding day as I could (as everyone rightly warned us that it would go quickly)...as I stood there & saw my family, friends & colleagues going completely bonkers on the dance floor (half of them with zero rhythm at all I might add), I knew we'd thrown a darn good wedding. Thank you so much.” Read more
