“Sera and the band performed for us at our wedding on 02.09.23 and they honestly made it the best day ever.

Amazing band, highly recommend

5 stars - The Rips are Highly Recommended
booked The Rips for their wedding in Leicestershire

“We hired The Rips last weekend to play at our wedding, an acoustic set during the drinks reception as well as the full band during the evening. The music was brilliant and the band were friendly up most professional, even when the dancefloor was limited due to some bad bar queues and mistimed food. The set list during both acoustic and full band was perfect, kept everyone going and dancing. Had ...”


Absolutely incredible end to our perfect day

“Live Wires were the perfect band for our wedding. They were fantastic and the dance floor was full all night long.

Brilliant in every way!

5 stars - Riptide are Highly Recommended
booked Riptide for their wedding in East Sussex

“Riptide played at our wedding in early September 2023 and we were so so happy we booked them. They played two sets - one focused on slightly older songs and the second one more recent tracks - and both were excellent. So many people on the night commented on how good the band were. Communication before the event was really easy and straightforward, and so was any logistics. They were also very ...”

Big up the Rock Up!

5 stars - Rock Up are Highly Recommended
booked Rock Up for their wedding in Somerset

“Rock Up were super easy to work with, professional but with a relaxed, friendly vibe and played an absolutely banging set full of dance floor rock and indie classics - exactly what we were hoping for! The DJ music in between was great too. A real pleasure to have them at our wedding and would absolutely recommend them to anyone. Big thanks to Luke and the guys!”


Great entertainers

5 stars - The Walks are Highly Recommended
booked The Walks for their wedding in Suffolk

“Communication was great prior to the event, there was a last minute change to the line up but you would not have known! Very professional. Guests commented on how good they were and the dance floor looked pretty full all night. The bride & groom enjoyed being a part of the final song and it will certainly be memorable for all those tortured by the brides vocal talent, or lack of. Thank you f...”

They were very communicative and responded quickly to any queries we had. On the night, ...”
