“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

5 stars - Happy Hour are Highly Recommended
Chris booked Happy Hour for their wedding at Ardington House in Oxfordshire

“Have finally had an opportunity to sit down and write to you to say a massive thank you to the band for your performance at our wedding! You were everything that we hoped you would be when we booked you and we were not disappointed at all! I do not exaggerate when I say both Rachel & I were so excited, looking forward to the band part of the day and to hear your version of Wherever You Will Go ...”“Have finally had an opportunity to sit down and write to you to say a massive thank you to the band for your performance at our wedding! You were everything that we hoped you would be when we booked you and we were not disappointed at all! I do not exaggerate when I say both Rachel & I were so excited, looking forward to the band part of the day and to hear your version of Wherever You Will Go was the highlight of the day (do not tell our vicar I said that!). Your rendition was fantastic and your rocking tunes were awesome – I suspect you saw Rachel performing many rocking gestures throughout the evening! Thank you for your friendly, down-to-earth nature, especially towards some of the party’s would-be band members (Big Joe in particular for humouring our Crazy Dave’s attempt at Forget You!). I have to say that your reputation precedes you, as one of our party when they saw your name became very excited, having seen you play previously. And notwithstanding she is not as much of a rock fan as we, I suspect my sister may well be tempted to book you for her own wedding next year! We have seen some of the photos you took at our wedding (on Facebook) and they are excellent quality (unfortunately showing my belly as my shirt was stolen from me!) – do you have any more of those photos, as we would love to have them? I have voted for you through that link you sent – hope it helps! Many thanks, Chris & Rachel Derrick” Read more

“We were really happy, exactly what we wanted. Their performance was impressive and many of our guests commented on what good musicians they were. And they were pleased by our First Dance song choice because it was a song they enjoyed playing!”

“We wanted to thank you and the band for the fantastic music at our wedding on the 8th September. Sorry for the delay in contacting you, we got back from honeymoon early October and reality of being back to work etc. is finally sinking in!

Sorry for the delay in contacting you, we got back from honeymoon early October and reality of being back to work etc. is finally sinking in! We thought the music throughout the evening was brilliant. Your duo during dinner really added to the atmosphere and created a lovely backdrop for the dinner service. Then the full evening set was just fabulous, so many of our guests have commented on how the vocals and music were excellent. Please pass on our thanks to the rest of the band, especially for accomodating the restrictions on time during the evening, we appreciate you playing until 11.30pm. Thank you very much and we would happily recommend you to anyone considering booking for other functions.” Read more
