HARD TO HANDLE are the most entertaining, energetic and professional wedding band Warwickshire has to offer!
When we record wedding video reviews, it is in the hope that it will convince you to hire HARD TO HANDLE as your Warwickshire wedding band (or in fact wherever in the UK you are holding your wedding reception!). As such, we usually approach either the bride or groom at the end of the night and engage them in a brief conversation about their experience – we ask if they have enjoyed themselves, if they like our performance, did they enjoy our rendition of their first dance, were there any stand out songs and would they recommend us to anyone looking at hire a band for their wedding reception.
As these are unscripted moments, we have no idea what the bride and groom will say. We certainly hope they will be effusive in their praise, saying they love our mix of live music and onstage energy, but every now and then we notice a little less talking, but we’ve come to realise that that’s not a bad thing if the person you’re talking to is smiling, and she’s with her friends and they’re all smiling too! In fact, one look at Becka who hired us along with her new husband Tom to perform at their wedding reception at Ashton Lodge, Warwickshire should let you know that she’s has the time of her life, dancing with her wedding squad. Of course, it helps that Tom and Becka asked each of their guests to request a song for us to play:
