“I chose to book Gold in their 8-piece format to get the brass section and maximise their impact. It was a great decision. The band sounded fantastic, the dancefloor was never empty and I've had lots of great feedback about their performance.

The band sounded fantastic, the dancefloor was never empty and I've had lots of great feedback about their performance. I booked Gold to get a "wow factor" at my wedding reception and they entirely delivered. Special thanks to Clare who was prompt, responsive and helpful at all times and made our search for the right band so much easier for us. Contacts with other agencies had left us disappointed for weeks, but within days of speaking to Clare we had our dream band.” Read more

“Thanks again for your performance at our wedding on the 20Th July. We had an amazing day and your performance played a big part in making the day special.

We had an amazing day and your performance played a big part in making the day special. The song choices were brilliant and packed the dance floor from the very beginning, even those who normally sit in the corner were up on their feet! A lot of our guests commented that it was like being at a gig which is just what we wanted!. The next day people were still hoarse from singing "Don't look back in anger" at the end of the night! We wouldn't hesitate at recommending you for a wedding or similar function, we had an amazing night, thank you, Louise and Andrew Howarth” Read more

“I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Happy Hour as a party band after they played our wedding in July 2009. Their fantastic play list had the entire crowd on the dance floor from the first song, with a perfect mix of lively tunes from old to new.

Their fantastic play list had the entire crowd on the dance floor from the first song, with a perfect mix of lively tunes from old to new. All ages danced the night away and everyone is still talking about how amazing Happy Hour was. We had a few power glitches, but the band kept playing until it was sorted out, so some guests actually thought it was part of the show. They did an amazing rendition of Don't Look Back in Anger by Oasis that had everyone singing, and were so lovely to play my request of Happy Birthday for one of our guests. They were absolute professionals, polite and friendly, with killer musicianship that made the night one for all to remember! Evanna White ” Read more

It was so much fun and we are having a great time going through the photos and reminiscing. You were fabulous, all of the music was spot on and everyone loved it. Thanks so much for learning the 1st dance - it sounded brilliant - I wish I could have been watching you all but we were concentrating so hard on not messing up our steps - which we did! And we really appreciated how flexible you were in letting family and friends join you for a few numbers. At one point, it felt like we were at a gig, which was unexpected and brilliant! Thanks so much for all your support throughout the planning and on the night. I really hope that we meet again one day soon. Many thanks and best wishes” Read more

They got people dancing and had a great selection of hits to suit all the guests. They looked great too and you could tell they were enjoying playing as much as we were listening. We would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a good all round band. Thank you so much for our first and last dance songs also. They were spot on. Many many thanks, Jamie and Catherine Ratcliffe. ” Read more
