Sailing Waves
"Sailing Waves performed at mine and my husband’s wedding on 08.09.24 for our drinks reception and what can I say, they were amazing. They even recruited our flower girl on the tamborine. All the guests enjoyed the music. Would highly recommend!!"
The Cheers
"The Cheers played our wedding on 4th July 2026 in Greenwich London and were fantastic. Everyone had a great time and commented how good the music was.
For us the interaction was easy in the build up to the day. Communication was clear and the band were very accommodating with music choices, learning our first dance and music schedule. When you’re organising many things is nice to work with people that are friendly and helpful.
One highlight for us was our 8 year old daughter joining the band on stage to sing love story. It was a lovely memory for her and us as a family and we a thankful to the band for allowing that impromptu moment.
In short - we would definitely recommend The Cheers for weddings and any other functions for that matter."
Vintage Sound Collective
"Amazing band. Saw them for the first time at the Woodley Carnival this weekend, and they had young and old up on their feet with their high energy soul funk
material...and as for their versions of Tina Turner songs, that was Tina up there on the stage.
Brilliant."
Tunehead
"Amazing !!! Great band, these guys really know how to get a crowd up and dancing!"
Soul Vibe Band
"We hired Soul Vibe Band to play our wedding, and they were fantastic!
Kainy who was our contact was very helpful in the lead up to the wedding and was a pleasure to work with, and they even arranged something especially for our first dance, which we hugely appreciated. They keep the energy up and put on a great set, and for a six piece band were exceptionally reasonably priced. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for their own wedding band!"
Soul75
"The band had great chemistry on stage and performed each song to a high level. The singers in particular were great, especially at getting the crowd going and getting people up on the dancefloor."
