Ursula W booked Hipster for their wedding in London

“We had a room full of guests that, like us love live music, so finding a band that was definately not a typical "wedding band" was really important to our wedding. Hipster were superb and really interacted with our guests to ensure that everyone had the most amazing evening. I wish we could do it all again. ”

The service was seamless from choosing the band to booking and then completing the final arrangements – first class. The band, Funkytown, were completely professional, friendly and excellent performers. We were contacted to discuss arrangements and we felt much more at ease following a chat on the telephone about playlists and the “special”songs that we had chosen. These “special” songs and all the others were sung with enthusiasm and talent and the quality of instrumentation was excellent. Funkytown totally deserve their excellent reputation and we would not hesitate to book this band again or to recommend them to anyone needing a fun band to liven up a function. Many thanks Alive & Funkytown, Richard & Nik.” Read more

My initial enquiry was dealt with by Clare of Alive Network who throughout the whole process was excellent. Clare was always on hand to answer questions and queries, and these were dealt with, in a sympathetic and professional manner. Weddings are stressful, and dealing with Clare and Alive Network meant I was able to concentrate on other things without worrying. In regard to The Jukeboxes, I dont think I've ever enjoyed a live band so much. They were fantastic, and made the day so much more special for myself & Rachael. I dealt with Glauco of The Jukeboxes and found him very easy to get on with. He was incredibly professional and very passionate in what he and his band do. He assured me throughout the whole process, that he would do everything he could to ensure everyone had a good time. The band certainly delivered, and Rachael & I could not have asked for more. We have received many letters since our wedding day thanking us and especially praising the band. The guys made it one the most special days of our lives. Once again thanks so much, Robert & Rachael Houghton ” Read more

I really can't sing their praises highly enough. They sounded amazing, they were polite, charming and eager to please. They interacted with the audience well and seemed to genuinely be enjoying playing for us. Everyone at the party without exception said how great they were and we even had a few gatecrashers who had heard them playing from downstairs and wanted to hear more! I'm so completely delighted with the choice I made, they exceeded my expectations by a mile. I go to see a lot of live music and I can honestly say that they play as well as, if not better than some well known acts. My party was brilliant and that was largely due to them!” Read more
