"The band were AMAZING! They played great set lists and took on board our song requests throughout the night - they were great fun, even getting involved with our props! Sounded really good throughout the night and kept the dancefloor full! We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great wedding band :) Thank you again, The Wilcox’s xx"

"Now things have calmed down a bit after a whirlwind week and a bit, I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for playing at our wedding and helping to make it such an amazing event. We had so many people telling us how awesome you were and we totally concur! Such a great repertoire, really well thought out starting off with the oldies but goodies to ending our night in the most spectacular way (mini mosh pit to Rage Against the Machine), which was right up our street. Thank you so much."

"Si and the band were absolutely phenomenal and provided us with a wedding evening that both us and our guests will remember forever!! The dance floor was packed for every song they played and no one wanted them to leave at the end of the night. All three band members that we booked are incredible musicians and so many of our guests commented on how amazing they were and that the band were the absolute highlight of the day for them. Thanks guys for helping to make our evening so special, we never doubted you wouldn’t, and thanks Si for such great communication right from the moment we booked with you. It’s been an absolute pleasure! Shame we can’t do it all over again, though will definitely be recommending the Tourists to anyone and everyone that we can."

"From start to finish Si and the band were absolutely amazing. The communication was exceptional and they worked with us to create the perfect evening for our wedding. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a band who wants a night which no one will forget. All our wedding guests have not stopped talking about them. They were very helpful organising the event abroad and were super flexible with last minute changes to the event. 10/10!"

"The Tourists played an awesome set for our wedding and made sure the dancefloor stayed full all night. We've had loads of friends and family saying how good they were. They were really flexible with timings when our day ran a bit later than expected and were happy to play all of our favourite songs. Would really recommend!"

"We booked the Tourists for our wedding and what can I say apart from absolutely fabulous from communication beforehand to getting everybody up on the dance floor. A special thank you for learning our first dance, Nights in White Satin by the Moody Blues which makes me emotional thinking about it. All of the guys were so personable and absolutely brilliant at what you do.Thank you so much for attending and making it a thoroughly memorable night."

"You and the band were SO great. All of my pals are really into music, many of them in bands and around bands…we received loads of compliments about you guys! You could tell right away...everyone was up and dancing the whole night. Was such an amazing day for us guys, and you really elevated it to EPIC heights. The first song was also beautifully done, we loved it!"

"What can I say, Simon and the band were incredible and kept us on the dance floor all evening. The music is so good you can't tell when they are singing or whether it's the actual track. Seamlessly professional, warm and fun, and made the evening so incredibly special. Couldn't recommend them more highly!"

Great music and audience interaction. The communication was excellent and we were kept fully informed at all stages. Highly recommend!!!"

"The Tourists were simply amazing! From start to finish, you were an important part of our wedding day - from the ceremony music to acoustic sets, and finally at the evening reception where you kept the dance floor packed. Even some guests who say they never dance got involved because of you! We didn't want it to end, and we've had so many comments from our guests to say how incredible you were. Thank you! Meghan and Shaun."

"We had The Tourists for our wedding with a lot of music geeks in our crowd! All I can say is - LOOK NO FURTHER!! The Tourists have some SERIOUS talent. Their performance was like having our own Glasto at our wedding. Absolutely everyone was raving about them all night and they were a great help in the lead up to the wedding, even helping with the run-through of the day! They were absolutely fantastic at engaging with the crowd and were so friendly and professional. I could not recommend them more. Thank you so much to Si and the gang and we definitely hope to book you again! Claire and Jonathan xxxx"

"I booked The Tourists for a surprise 30th birthday. The communication leading up to the event was fantastic, Simon couldn’t do enough to make sure everything was clear, explain how things would work and was even extra accommodating when I decided to change the venue a couple of times. The band learnt a special song, managed all the guests so the ‘surprise’ was a success and made the atmosphere so positive and energetic for the whole night, always adding personal touches to make us all feel really special. Everything about booking and the lead up to the event was made so easy and enjoyable, and the night couldn’t have gone better. The band are happy to work with any space to make the experience the best it can be, as well as accommodating music choices, requests where possible and getting involved in bespoke elements of events and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!! Thank you!!!"

"Wow - what a band. They truly added something magical to our wedding. The dance floor never emptied. They adapted on the fly on the night and even learnt a song / played something new when they found out how much my husband liked Blink-182. Could not recommend the band enough and if our word is not enough our friends and family have not stopped commenting since about them. Don't hesitate, if you want to take the stress out of music on the night - book these guys!"
