BRISTOL WEDDING BAND
“We danced all night”! Yes Amy and Paul, you certainly did. But when you have hired an outstandingly amazing, versatile and entertaining Bristol wedding band to perform at your wedding reception at Folly Farm, Bristol, playing all of your song requests, why wouldn’t you? Of course, it’s easy for us to say this, because we know who we are. We know that our innate performing skills, breadth of experience and sheer desire to entertain Bristol wedding couples and their guests at evening wedding receptions will always ensure a full dance floor. And of course much like all of the 200+ brides and grooms who feature in videos on our Reviews page, Amy and Paul know this too. They know that we played their first dance (Alex Warren, “Carry you home”) perfectly. They also know that our all-in-one service includes:
- Professional, versatile, experienced and entertaining Bristol function band
- Over 2 hours of rock, pop, indie and more played live
- Complementary live DJ playing sets throughout the night
- Massive live band playlist, fully customisable
- Sound system and lighting
- Contract for stress-free booking
- No agency fees or commissions when you hire HARD TO HANDLE BAND direct
But that’s only because their weddings have already taken place. They have spent over two hours on the dance floor, busting moves to HARD TO HANDLE BANDs’ exhilarating mix of rock, pop, indie, pop-punk, soul and more and then marvelled at our DJs’ ability to mix dance, R ‘n B, Ibiza classics into feel-good anthemic club-style sets for non-stop music all night. No wonder so many bride and grooms, having hired our services as a Bristol wedding band are keen to tell us on video how much they love our performances.
CHOOSING A BRISTOL WEDDING BAND: REVIEWS FROM BRIDES AND GROOMS
But we’re assuming that as you are reading this, this is all in the future for you. It might be in a few months – you’re busy planning your big day after a whirlwind romance, and surprise proposal and a million different wedding-related things running through your head, trying to work out which one of the many Bristol wedding bands will be perfect for you, your loved one and friends to spend the night on the dance floor with, or you may be making your first tentative exploration into the world of wedding music entertainment providers, but regardless of whether your Bristol wedding is a long way off or just around the corner, it is in the future and you don’t yet know how good the Bristol wedding band you eventually choose will be. You’re currently in the position that Paul and Amy were in before the music started! So how do you get from this point to the point where you are excitedly extolling the virtues of HARD TO HANDLE BAND on video to other brides and grooms?
This is why recommendations are so important. Some transactional choices are easy – for example knowing which item of produce in the supermarket to buy – because you have already built up a stock of knowledge as to which item suits you, your budget and your tastes, others are more difficult, because you don’t currently have the relevant information to enable you to make an informed choice. Choosing the right live wedding music entertainment falls into the second category, because like most other brides and grooms, this is likely to be your first time at the altar, your first time wearing a wedding dress and certainly the first time trying to work out whether you should hire a large boring and bland events band featuring a lead vocalist trying to overcompensate for the lifeless, anonymous backing musicians behind them, or a full on high energy professional three piece function band jumping around like lunatics, playing all of your song requests, ensuring that you and your friends are having the time of your lived on the dance floor!
SHOULD I USE HITCHED AND GOOGLE BRISTOL WEDDING BAND REVIEWS?
We are of course talking about the difference between HARD TO HANDLE and other Bristol function bands who SAY they’re perfect for you but probably aren’t. Ask yourself this – have they been brave enough to ask the brides and grooms who have had the misfortune to hire them to commit their feedback to camera just after the gig has finished? Probably not – they’re likely to be relying on written reviews and recommendations in the hope that you will read them and place your trust in them. Are their written reviews genuine? Possibly – after all, there are over a hundred written reviews of HARD TO HANDLE online, both on our Google reviews page (just search “Hard to Handle wedding band”) and on our Hitched profile. But to be frank, when you read the written reviews of some bands for Bristol weddings, they seem very similar and overly effusive enough to make you question if a content creator has been paid to write them.
ARE WEDDING REVIEW VIDEOS REAL, FAKE OR AI?
All of which brings us back to our video reviews. Even in the nefarious world of AI, it’s pretty had to fake the video reviews you will find on our Reviews page. You can see they are in the moment, you can see the bride and groom in shot with one of the band members, and we have deliberately ensured that they don’t look too professional or staged. Moreover, as we film these videos straight after we have finished performing, there is no time for bride and groom to think about what they are going to say or for us to coach their responses to our questions in advance. It’s all spontaneous, spur of the moment stuff, and we believe it gives people like you, searching for the perfect live Bristol wedding band, an invaluable snapshot of what to expect when you hire HARD TO HANDLE BAND for your wedding entertainment.
So when Amy and Paul say that HARD TO HANDLE BAND are “so good, amazing, you did it all!”, what you are really hearing is the gratification of a young bride and groom in realising that the choice they made in hiring us as their Bristol wedding entertainment was the right one. Amy and Paul, you did good. Well done. And well done to you reading this, because the next thing you are going to do is get in touch and ask us about making your wedding evening one you’ll spend on the dance floor, right?
