Wedding Band Reviews

Performed amazingly.

5 stars - Gold are Highly Recommended
Mark L booked Gold for their wedding in Gloucestershire

“Thank you to Alive Network and Gold for helping to make my wedding the incredible day it was. One of my only individual responsibilities for the wedding was organising the music, so I felt a good deal of pressure to make sure it was right. Alive Network was impressive due to its range of artists to choose from, but while I cannot comment on other acts, I cannot speak highly enough of Gold. They we...”“Thank you to Alive Network and Gold for helping to make my wedding the incredible day it was. One of my only individual responsibilities for the wedding was organising the music, so I felt a good deal of pressure to make sure it was right. Alive Network was impressive due to its range of artists to choose from, but while I cannot comment on other acts, I cannot speak highly enough of Gold. They were friendly and professional in the build up, but most importantly performed amazingly on the night. My major concern was keeping the dance floor full and having the energy high throughout the last few hours of the night. I think it would be fair to say the marquee was bursting with energy throughout, and I don't think I've ever seen a fuller dance floor at a wedding. I am so pleased that I booked the extra sax and trumpet, and that the band played mainly the soul/motown and disco/funk parts of their repertoire. It meant that everyone was up dancing from 20 year olds to the bride's 91 year old Grandma. They even let a friend of mine butcher 'Wonderful Tonight' during their break! Really couldn't have been better in any way, other than an extra 3 hours dancing! 5 stars.” Read more

5 stars - Dirty Weekend are Highly Recommended
Thomas M booked Dirty Weekend for their event

“These guys are fantastic! Highly recommended. The dancefloor was packed all night and everyone absolutely loved the band. The songs were all spot on. Great musicians and brilliant energy. They even sorted out an electric piano for my wife's brother so he could play for everyone. Book this band and you wont regret it!”

I can't recommend Fraudio highly enough.

5 stars - The Rips are Highly Recommended
Rowan R booked The Rips for their event

“When we were planning our wedding reception we were looking for a band that could allow us to be loyal to our indie rock roots but at the same time be accessible and get everyone dancing. The Rips were recommended by three different people and when I contacted the band I got a swift and friendly response. They provided all the equipment and lighting so we didn't have to worry about anything and th...”“When we were planning our wedding reception we were looking for a band that could allow us to be loyal to our indie rock roots but at the same time be accessible and get everyone dancing. The Rips were recommended by three different people and when I contacted the band I got a swift and friendly response. They provided all the equipment and lighting so we didn't have to worry about anything and they even went the extra mile of learning 'our song' for the first dance. They delivered an excellent performance on the night and created an amazing atmosphere so everyone, young and old, thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I can't recommend The Rips highly enough, our reception just wouldn't have been the same if we'd had a dj. They are a professional, talented and lovely bunch of lads and we have been to see them play several times since the wedding!” Read more

Brightlights were fantastic

5 stars - Brightlights are Highly Recommended
Sue N booked Brightlights for their party in Essex

“Alive Network were very efficient and patient with answering a lot of questions and getting feedback from a few different bands. Brightlights were fantastic. It was my daughters 21st and she and her friends thought they were brilliant. They were extremely pleasant to deal with, lively, flexible and their music was excellent. We couldn’t have been more pleased as we were slightly concerned having...”“Alive Network were very efficient and patient with answering a lot of questions and getting feedback from a few different bands. Brightlights were fantastic. It was my daughters 21st and she and her friends thought they were brilliant. They were extremely pleasant to deal with, lively, flexible and their music was excellent. We couldn’t have been more pleased as we were slightly concerned having not seen them play live. We need not have worried they were everything we hoped for and more. ALL of our guests were extremely complimentary.” Read more

“Silver St Dixie Trio and Alive Network were absolutely brilliant. When we came across Alive Network via Google we immediately saw that the website was easy to use and we especially liked the consistency of having recordings and pricing all available on the same sheet – this made it so easy for us to browse and make choices.
