Helen A booked Sugar Push for their event

“We just wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU to the whole band for your performance on Saturday night! You were all fantastic... And the music definitely went down VERY well. I just wish time could have slowed down a little - as it seemed to fly after our first dance. Talking of which, thank you for arranging for it to be sung.

And the music definitely went down VERY well. I just wish time could have slowed down a little - as it seemed to fly after our first dance. Talking of which, thank you for arranging for it to be sung. I had requested my Bridesmaids & their partners join us after one minute - and apparently my younger sister (maid of honour) was holding them all back!! Your female vocalist nailed it though - so thank you. During the wedding breakfast we loved the piano music... And the double bass was an awesome touch :) So thank you. I did try to look for you at the end of the night - but was told by another band member you had disappeared for a few minutes. In any case, I asked for our thanks to be passed on to the entire band. Admittedly, booking a band was possibly the one thing I felt most nervous about (hence why we left it so late!). Mainly because we'd looked at so many options and I just couldn't make my mind up! I just wanted to make the best decision possible as I knew a band could 'make or break' the night. Then Laura recommended you guys... And the decision was easy. And thankfully it paid off, as you were the perfect end to our special day! People hit the dance floor as soon as you started your swing dance set - and then it just got better and better. A particular favourite memory was seeing the two lines of people formed facing each other - with people dancing down the channel in between with the person opposite then. Brilliant! We will definitely recommend you guys. Helen and Nick x” Read more

5 stars - Ultraviolet are Highly Recommended
Deanne booked Ultraviolet for their wedding at Denbies Wine Estate in Surrey

“Book this band and you won't regret it. Not only did we think they were fabulous but so did all our guests from the feedback we've had. Less than 2 weeks after our wedding and they've already been recommended by a guest to someone else. They were great to work with, getting ideas from us on the songs from their repertoire that would go down well with us and our guests before proposing set ...”“Book this band and you won't regret it. Not only did we think they were fabulous but so did all our guests from the feedback we've had. Less than 2 weeks after our wedding and they've already been recommended by a guest to someone else. They were great to work with, getting ideas from us on the songs from their repertoire that would go down well with us and our guests before proposing set lists and making sure that suggestions that did not make their sets were played by the DJ. Alive Network were great in sorting all the arrangements out, thankyou Clare. Can't say anything more than we can't recommend them highly enough.” Read more

“Beat Collective were an excellent band that were professional, timely and had amazing voices. The atmosphere they created really made the party, everyone was up and dancing. The overall service provided by Alive made it easy to book the band and clear what both sides had to do, a very pleasant experience. ”

Aaron M booked Dirty Weekend for their event

“Alive Network allowed us to find bands to match both our budget and our requirements that were available on our date without us having to go out looking for them - when you have limited time and lots of other things happening, this helped us massively.

Their contact with us was good, and we found a great band in Teenage Kicks. They were friendly, polite and great entertainment - they had our guests dancing all night, and many of them commented on how good they were! They kept the place rocking even after we'd headed off, and were very easy to deal with - I'd highly recommend them.” Read more

They were very professional, well organised, friendly, polite & well presented.

5 stars - The Kicks are Highly Recommended
Lisa C booked The Kicks for their party at Burnham Beeches Hotel in Berkshire

“I booked The Kicks for my husbands 40th birthday party. They were very professional, well organised, friendly, polite & well presented.

They were very professional, well organised, friendly, polite & well presented. Having never booked a live band before I was unsure of how things would turn out but I was extremely happy with the performance and the communication beforehand with the band was easy. They even downloaded some obscure song choices of mine to play between sets which personalised the experience even more. The Kicks also fulfilled my 11 year old daughters request of singing with them performing and they made her feel at ease. She had never done anything like that before and I am so pleased they agreed as it made the night. The Kicks have exceeded my expectations and I have heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests. Some have even enquired about using them for their own parties on the future. Our guests were impressed with how The Kicks could go from performing Wheatus to Bruno mars! As you can tell I have nothing but praise and would recommend that The Kicks are worth every penny and more!” Read more

The band were fantastic.

5 stars - Gypsy Rogues are Highly Recommended

I was overwhelmed by how wonderful they were.

5 stars - The MBB Band are Highly Recommended
Becky W booked The MBB Band for their event

“Having booked the Mini Big Band on recommendation I was not at all disappointed and in fact was overwhelmed by how wonderful they were. The band members were friendly, cheerful, professional and excellent performers (they all looked good too!). The music was fabulous and the whole band should be recognised for their talents.

The band members were friendly, cheerful, professional and excellent performers (they all looked good too!). The music was fabulous and the whole band should be recognised for their talents. The vocalist was a brilliant singer and performer and the sound the band made was amazing. Everyone at my husbands party commented on the band and were all really enthusiastic about them, many asking me how I had managed to find such a fantastic band. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending the band to my friends. Indeed our friends who came to the party are now hoping to book them for their daughters wedding. To add to that, dealing with Chris before hand when arranging the event was hassle free and easy, I didn't have to worry about anything. Roll on my 50th when I can have them for my big party. Best wishes, Becky Westwood” Read more
