Brilliant.
Nelson was one of the best bits of the day! He was fantastic all day, blending in seamlessly with the other staff and the dramatic fall got everyone worried! The set was great, and got everyone of our guests joining in! Couldn't recommend the VIP waiters more, thanks Nelson!
Dont think just do
Nelson was a last minute booking for our wedding after toying with the idea for several weeks and my god best decision we made!
I can’t tell you how much I recommend Nelson, doubt question the idea of booking him and just do it.
VIP Waiters = Perfection!!
Can not recommend VIP waiters enough!
Nelson played his part to perfection, and went above and beyond our expectations.
He truly made our day so memorable, and I only wish for another reason to hire him!
Caution! - You'll be highly Entertained!!!
Booked Nelson @VIPWaiters for my wedding in august 2024. My wife wanted a singing waiter but as a surprise i booked Nelson and downplayed it to her so she thought there wasn't going to be anything! Then after our sit down meal there was an almighty crash and bang and down goes Nelson! - He made it so convincing even i thought he was hurt (and i booked him!). - So convincing in fact, a guest of our wedding was a Nurse and offered him medical assistance.
Then out comes the microphone and the party really got started!
Nelson isn't just a sing-a-long for 30 mins, he's a full on entertainer with a great sense of humour and gets stuck-in with the venue's waiting staff throughout the day to blend in before the performance. He gets everyone joining in, singing, dancing, conga-lining, dirty-dancing lifting... It really got everyone going and on their feet. It is also safe to say that after Nelsons performance, I wasn't at all nervous about making my grooms speech as the whole room had just witnessed me sing a few lines of 'Wonderwall' in a key of my own!
Even now, a few months on from our wedding, Nelson's performance is one of the first things our friends and family mention when talking about our special day.
I can thoroughly recommend him for any wedding or other event to help make some lifelong memories!
Where do I even begin
Where do I even begin, from the moment I booked Nelson to the end of our wedding night he has been an absolute bundle of joy and a pleasure to work with. What makes him different from so many other singing waiters is his commitment to the act, he really had everyone fooled all day, with his knowledge of the drinks and canapés, his politeness and professionalism.
The actual performance itself was like a movie scene, he had everyone up singing and dancing and although it only lasted 30 or so minutes, it is all everyone talked about all day and set the perfect mood to get our party started in the evening. He stayed around for a little while after and mingled with guests and they relived the afternoon all over again.
If you are thinking of booking Nelson I’d tell you to do it 100000 times. It was easily the best decision we made.
Thank you so much!!

Nelson got our wedding party roaring
We booked a number of entertainments for our wedding in August 2024. Nelson was easily the best act ... He got all of our guests (aged 10 to 80+) dancing, jumping, twirling, singing and joining the conga lines. His energy was contagious. He let us choose our songs and listened to our needs.
Everything was going well and people were happy enough ... but once Nelson crashed the party, it realy really got started. We have loads of photos of happy guests, twirling napkins. Hiring Nelson was one of our best decisions for the day. Highly recommended.
Fantastic Singing Waiter Company!
Nelson and his team are a fantastic addition to any special day. Not only are they talented singers, but amazing actors too! They completely change the atmosphere within the Wedding Breakfast and get the party started. They are interactive, fun and a real crowd pleaser. As a venue, Nelson and his team are easy to work with and we enjoy having VIP Waiters performing with us. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Well what can other than 5 stars 🌟
Well what can other than 5 stars 🌟
Nelson when I first met him I knew he was going to be fun, professional, and obviously charming.
When it got to the wedding day, the first time I saw him was when he greeted my husband and myself at the end of the aisle with a glass of champagne each. (My husband didn’t have a clue who Nelson was, as I booked it in secret)
He carried out the down serving canapés and being his fun professional self. Then when it was his time to shine at the end of the wedding breakfast he did just that. My guests thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment Nelson put on and I would 100% recommend him to anyone.
The Best In The Game
We cannot recommend Nelson form VIP Waiters enough! He absolutely smashed the performance and shocked all our guests!!!!! A very talented man and the most kindest and funniest too.
Nelson you made our day bro! We wish you all the very best and may God bless you.
Thank you. BETHANY & BRUNO X
The most amazing wedding singers!
The most amazing wedding singers!
The effort and time that they put in from the start of the day severing guests canapés and getting to know them, to the energy and fun they bring during the sets… they were what really got our wedding going. Everyone absolutely loved VIP waiters and I’ve had guests asking for company details. The VERY best thing we could have booked for our day!
Exceptional and Amazing
We booked Nelson from VIP Waiters for our son’s wedding in August 24. He was recommended by our daughter Courtney who works in the wedding industry. He was exceptional from the minute he arrived, a true actor and entertainer.
The guests at the wedding said it was the best wedding they’d been to. All of our friends and family joined in with the singing and dancing, Nelson made sure of that. Everyone was happy and laughing. It was a joy to
Amazing day.
Nelson was AMAZING!
Nelson was bloody amazing! From the moment I booked him I knew we were going to have a great time. He arrived super early to ‘look the part’ and no one ever suspected a thing! So many people fell for it but EVERYONE was up dancing and having a great time. Thank you Nelson for such an amazing surprise🫶🏼
VIP Waiters for the win!
We were absolutely blown away by Nelson from VIP Waiters, who performed as a singing waiter at our wedding. Including him in our day was the best decision we made. From the moment he stepped into the role, he seamlessly blended in with the waiting staff, surprising all of our guests when he suddenly broke into song after some oscar-worthy acting when he fell down in front of the entire wedding breakfast! His voice was incredible, and his performance brought a level of energy and fun to the reception that we could never have imagined. Nelson had everyone on their feet, singing along and dancing, making the evening unforgettable. His professionalism, talent, and ability to engage the crowd were second to none. We can’t recommend him enough – he was a true highlight of our special day! Thank you Nelson!
MUST HAVE FOR A WEDDING!
Nelson made our wedding so fun, memorable and EXCITING! HE HAD ALL OF OUR GUESTS DANCING. I'm so glad I found him, was an AMAZING surprise for my Husband and our wedding guests! Nelson, I don't even want to think of what our wedding would've been without you, thanks for making it so much fun and memorable!
Want to say a huge thank you to Gareth…
Want to say a huge thank you to Gareth who stood in for Nelson on our big day!!! The guest loved it and even the groom which was a complete surprise! Nelson was brilliant at keeping communication top secret and was able to pull off the surprise without the groom suspecting anything which for me was a big tasks itself keeping it from him. Gareth was fantastic and such a lovely gentlemen our day is a day everyone is still talking about!
Thank you again guys!!!!
