Fantastic!

We booked Britt & the Backbeat for our party - what an energy! They were so lovely and so talented - everyone had the best time and they got everyone on the dancefloor. The whole service was seamless and I couldn't recommend them more highly. Absolutely brilliant!

Turning pages are incredible

When we found turning pages we knew we wanted to book them for our wedding, the range of songs they cover is what really stood out to us and we were confident they would be a crowd pleaser and we couldn’t have been more right! Dean, Gary and Harry were brilliant at reading the crowd and there were so many people on the dance floor through all of their sets, we have some excellent footage from the content creator of some very questionable dancing! Almost every conversation post wedding has had some mention of how fantastic the band were, when you can get compliments from 20yr olds - 70 yr olds you know you’re doing something right! If we had an event in the future where we needed a band we would definitely book turning pages again.

Soulstress Groove were absolutely amazing, they arrived and set up seamlessly, they played brilliant music and the dance floor was packed for the whole evening!
It’s always a risk booking a band you’ve never seen live, particularly for a wedding, but I would recommend these guys to anyone! Perfect wedding band!

We hired The Penny Kings for our wedding in Sussex and they were perfect! We had a 3 piece acoustic set for our welcome drinks reception, and then a 4 piece back set for our wedding party. Both were incredible, we loved all the music and our guests also raved about how good it all was.
The communication throughout was quick and easy, and the band were also really helpful in setting up their PA system for us to use for our speeches.

I wouldn't hesitate to use The Penny Kings again, and would highly recommend. Thank you!!

Wedding- Band Hatchland

We booked Hatchland through Entertainment Nation for our wedding and they were absolutely brilliant. The band were fantastic, had everyone up dancing, and created such a great atmosphere. The booking process with Entertainment Nation was smooth and professional from start to finish. Would definitely recommend both Hatchland and Entertainment Nation.

Moonlight Mojo were incredible

Moonlight Mojo were incredible! Olivia and the team were so accomodating and learnt our first dance song- they smashed it too! On the wedding night they were fantastic and we had so many complements about the band. They had a great repertoire and catered for all, keeping people on the dance floor all night

Just My Type were absolutely brilliant and one of the highlights of our wedding day. From the afternoon duo set to the last song, they had the dance floor packed and created such an incredible atmosphere. They were professional, friendly, talented and clearly passionate about what they do. Their setlist had something for everyone, and it was wonderful seeing guests of all ages up and dancing together. We’ve had so many compliments from friends and family about how fantastic the band were. They performed our first dance song perfectly and created such special moments for us as a couple. If you’re looking for a wedding band that will keep the party going all night, we couldn’t recommend Just My Type more highly.

AMAZING

We booked breaking news for our wedding band and they were absolutely AMAZING. the whole process of booking through entertainment nation was so easy and any queries were answers so quickly. Every single person who came to our wedding said how amazing the band was! My only criticism is I wish there were more videos of the band on their page maybe at events they have played I watched the YouTube one about 70 times in the run up haha! The pricing details were so clear which was so helpful to help us understand how much it all would cost.

We booked the Broadsmen for our wedding and we were so happy with how it all turned out- the music was fab, the band members were hilarious and very flexible in accommodating our maid of honour’s last minute request for badly singing 9 to 5 just prior to our speeches. The booking process was seamless (thanks Donna!) - would really recommend booking the Broadsmen for any event!

Lots of Love!

Nobody left the dance floor

Just my type played at my daughter’s wedding on Monday. An acoustic set was a delight, happy and smiley and setting the vibe. They learnt the first dance and with impeccable timing went straight into the set. The varied songs were fantastic, nobody left the dance floor, They made the night and they looked like they were loving it too 🤩

Very disappointing service & performance

Very disappointing service from Entertainment Nation. We hired Groove Habit for our wedding, two band members were substituted on the day without our knowledge. The band turned up looking very scruffy and not like the promotionally material on the website, the lead singer lacked charisma and overall the band were very underwhelming. Entertainment Nation conceded that they had not been made aware of the substitutions on the day. Wouldn't book with them again and it certainly didn't deliver a stand out performance on our special day.

Reply from Entertainment Nation

Hi Elizabeth, I'm sorry the line-up that performed wasn't the one in the band's video and that the band didn't live up to expectations. Groove Habit's manager has confirmed that two members were taken ill, so deputies were brought in so you were not left without a band on your wedding day.
 
While it was important to keep your entertainment in place, you should have been kept informed by the band and given the chance to decide how to handle it. I've raised the issue with the band's management and fed back that he should have discussed this with you as soon as he was made aware that there was a problem.
 
I can confirm that Entertainment Nation were not aware of any changes to the line-up until the 22nd of June when you got in touch.
 
We always want our clients to enjoy the performances of their booked entertainment and I am very sorry that this was not your experience.
 
We do hope that despite this issue, you had a wonderful wedding day and we wish you all the very best for the future.

Thank you!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to The Shortwaves for making our wedding reception incredible! The music was top notch all the way through, amazing set list, and kept the dance floor full all through the night. Thank you as well for learning our first dance song for us! Elliot and the band were so flexible to accommodate the venue, and just lovely, professional, incredibly talented people. Live music is so important to us and these guys were absolutely the highlight of our reception. Thanks a million! Sam & Josie, 20/6/26.

We held a large outdoors party on saturday and wanted a live band to entertain our guests. Entertainment Nation is an excellent company and have a multitude of bands suitable for any event. We chose Runswick who were absolutely brilliant. Dino liaised with us 4 weeks before the event answering any questions we had. I was very nervous as we had not hosted such an event at home before. the Band are a guitarist, lead singer and a drummer all are perfectly mannered and extremely professional. Our guests absolutely loved them. Thank you for making our party an absolute blast.
