Fierce Weddings
"When scouting for a wedding band for our big day, my little sister suggested that I check these guys out, as she had seen them live a few times across various venues in the South East. She knew the brief and by god did these guys meet (and exceed) it. We wanted some class music and a vibe that everyone would remember, not just another generic wedding set. Fierce mild clearly do NOT do generic 🤣 far from it!
Ailise and Andrew were there from 1pm until 1am the following morning, going from truly beautiful acoustic sets for our ceremony (bringing many tears to many eyes) and drinks reception to rocking it up with the main band for our evening celebrations before ending the night with a cracking DJ set. These guys literally did not stop all day! I got to really enjoy my “father-daughter” dance as Andrew, Ailise and the band learned “sweet child of mine” by Guns and Roses especially for the occasion. To say my dad was surprised (and delighted) would be putting it mild.
What made it even more special was having several friends and family members come up to ask who the band were and how they had never had such a good time dancing at a wedding (and considering it was blistering hot that day in the marquee, I will take that as a massive compliment).
If you are looking for a band with some real soul, real edge, then look no further! Would recommend them 100%!
Can we do it all again? 🥹"

8-Bit Funk
"Big thank you to 8-Bit for putting on a great show. The band were super accommodating, really well organized, very communicative. They did a great job of playing background jazz at a birthday and of course all the nostalgic gaming hits. Both young(5-15) and old(40 yr olds) loved it"
Copper Brereton
"Copper was great - played for our day 2 wedding BBQ. Great mix of it Irish and contemporary, the music was brilliant and people enjoyed it. Also a very nice guy to deal with, both in advance and on the day. He brought a fiddle player alongside which was class."
Rihanna’s Trio
"We had the pleasure of having Rihanna at our event, and the experience was truly exceptional. Everything was handled to the highest standard — professional, organised, and with genuine dedication throughout.
Her passion, commitment, and attention to detail were evident from start to finish. The level of involvement and care she showed made a real difference and contributed greatly to the success of the event.
I would highly recommend Rihanna to anyone looking for someone professional, reliable, and truly passionate about what they do."
