Simply the Best

5 stars - The Arcadias are Highly Recommended
booked The Arcadias for their wedding in Suffolk April 2026

“We booked the Arcadias through the Alive Network for our April wedding. The Network were great and responded to requests very quickly. Our point of contact was Nick and he was always available on the end of the phone making the entire process very easy! We got in contact with the Arcadias about 4 weeks out and they sent a very comprehensive brief for what they would offer and what they needed ...”

Cannot recommend enough

5 stars - Hypersonix are Highly Recommended
booked Hypersonix for their wedding in Gloucestershire April 2026

“These guys were awesome. We had them for our wedding in April 2026. I'm into rock music and my partner likes pop music. They catered for all of this. They are very friendly individuals with great communication running up to the day. They were also very flexible with how late we planned to serve our evening food. Everything was perfect on the day from their setlist to how great they sounded. Als...”


They're so good that we've seen them twice!

5 stars - The Leaners are Highly Recommended
booked The Leaners for their wedding in West Sussex April 2026

“After seeing The Leaners at a friend's wedding in 2024, we knew straight away that we HAD to book them for our own wedding. All I can say is that the band didn't stop getting compliments all night. They kept the energy, procured a great set list and kept the party going after their set with a DJ playlist. Erica's voice is fantastic and the drums, guitar and bass are equally incredible too. Spec...”


Incredible from start to finish

5 stars - Overdrive are Highly Recommended
booked Overdrive for their event in Durham April 2026

“What can I say about overdrive !!!!! Unbelievable from start to finish, got everyone on the dancefloor, we had specific requests on songs before the event and they delivered those exceptionally. Not a fault in the world and I would highly recommend Overdrive for any occasion. Josh who we dealt with on a weekly basis leading up to the event was always on hand to answer any question or query, agai...”


Best Wedding Band Ever

5 stars - The Nightliners are Highly Recommended
booked The Nightliners for their wedding in Hampshire April 2026

“The Nightliners were absolutely fantastic. From performing our first dance to the very last song they were amazing. So many of our friends and family said they were the best wedding band they’ve ever seen and we agree! Thanks so much for making it an unforgettable night.”


An absolutely brilliant band! 100% book them

5 stars - The Compilation are Highly Recommended
booked The Compilation for their wedding in London April 2026

“We booked The Compilation for our wedding and would highly highly recommend them. Calum was helpful and organised in the run up to the wedding, and the band arrived super promptly (even on tube strike day in London). Their performance was slick and professional, their energy contagious and the music fantastic. We had so many of our guests explicitly say how impressed they were. Thank you again f...”


Tithe Barn 24.04.26

5 stars - Midnight Train are Highly Recommended
booked Midnight Train for their wedding in North Yorkshire April 2026

“Brilliant band. Very talented, great interactions and spontaneous! They allowed our guests to sing on the mic and even play instruments which was a huge highlight to our day and is still being talked about. Music was great, all requests made prior to the wedding and on the evening were played. They were well organised and we didn’t haven’t to worry about anything. Would 100% recommend to everyone.”


An Amazing Band!!

5 stars - Hi-Tops are Highly Recommended
booked Hi-Tops for their wedding in Cheshire April 2026

“We had the absolute pleasure of having this band perform at our wedding at Rookery Hall on 18.04.2026, and they were nothing short of incredible. From the moment they started, the energy in the room completely lifted — they were so upbeat, engaging, and clearly passionate about what they do. What really stood out was their ability to keep the dance floor full the entire set. There wasn’t a sing...”
