Nicola and Johnny, Wedding, March 2010I wanted to write you a note to say a big thank you to you both for recommending Plan B to us for our wedding in March. I'm sorry I'm only writing to you now but we are only just back from honeymoon.
The band were absolutely excellent. Countless numbers of our guests commented on how brilliant they were. The dance floor was full from the moment they came on and didn’t empty until they finished. The lads played all the songs we wanted them to sing from their playlist but also knew exactly what else to play to keep the energy of the crowd alive. One of our guests commented that he thought he was going to have a heart attack he was so excited by the music!! Please pass on a great big thanks to them from us. They really helped to make our day so special. -
Petar, Party, London, December 2009Plan B 5-Piece provided a fantastic evening of entertainment. All of us really enjoyed the service from this band. Fantastic music, fantastic equipment. An all round entertainment package creating a great party atmosphere for our guests. We will be happy to work again with the band.

P Ensell, Wedding, Hampshire, October 2009Plan B are without a shadow of a doubt the best live band I have ever seen perform, and believe me I have seen a few famous bands live! They set up quickly and out of sight and when they began they entertained our guests better than anything I could ever have imagined. Out of the whole day the most feedback I received was regarding these exceptionally talented individuals – so much so that my sister-in-law has requested their contact details to book them for her works’ Christmas party this coming year and my best man and usher are fighting over who can book them first for their upcoming weddings next year! They controlled our iPod play lists in-between their sets and this was achieved absolutely seamlessly and, and..….well I cannot accurately put to words how completely amazing they were but I would pay good money and travel great distance just to watch them play again, as would most of my guests! Thank you for helping me give my wife the wedding of her dreams and please pass on our deepest thanks to these fantastic musicians.

Lisa and Spencer, Wedding, Lincolnshire, September 2009Just wanted to say a massive thanks to Plan B who played at my wedding reception in September 2009. We booked them after seeing them play at a friend’s wedding the year before and couldn’t wait to hear them again! The band was really professional yet very friendly and they kept the dance floor busy all night. People were talking about them for weeks and I know many people took business cards away with them. A huge thanks for playing our 1st dance “ Have I told you lately” it was brilliant and thanks also for letting one of my friends get up to sing with you! Thank you for making our evening a very special occasion and we wish you all the best for the future.

Rhiannon, Wedding, Hampshire, September 2009Just wanted to write to say a massive thank you to the band. Everyone raved about how wonderful they were and the dance floor was packed - Nathan & I didn't stop dancing all night, which is what we wanted! The band mentioned that they were recording that night and could send us a copy. If they could it would be an amazing momento! I believe our friends have booked them for a wedding next year, so we greatly look forward to seeing them then. Thanks for all your help.

Gareth, Wedding, London, August 2009Apologies that it has taken me so long to come back to you with regards to Plan B. I had actually intended to send you a quick email anyway just saying how much we had enjoyed the band, so I am more than happy for you to use anything I write. Initially we were a bit reluctant to book a band that we hadn't had the opportunity to see perform live, however of all the bands that we listened to online, Plan B not only sounded the best, they also played the best mixture of rock/disco/pop music that we felt was suited for our wedding.
I have to say that I would whole heartedly recommended Plan B for anyone who is looking to book a band for an event where you want as many people as possible on the dance floor. Being a wedding, we had kids as young as 5 and adults older than they will care to admit, yet Plan B were able to play songs all through the night that had almost all of our guests on the dance floor. The only disappointment was that they had to stop playing at the end of the evening. I have never been to a wedding before where the guests have asked for an encore! I honestly say that the band made my wedding evening the best I could ever have hoped for. We had so many people asking about them when we cam e back from our honeymoon and many more saying that they couldn't believe how good they were and how well they played the variety of music, from Michael Jackson to the Rolling Stones to MC Hammer. My personal favourite was the Proclaimers' song 500 miles which they played as their encore and we were very lucky that a relative videoed it as we now have a lovely 3 minutes of most of our guests jumping in unison at the end of the night. I cannot thank the band enough for putting on a truly fantastic show for us. Kind regards and many thanks again, -
Peter & Victoria, Wedding, July 2009Firstly, I apologize for not writing sooner…where has the year gone!! I would like to express our thanks to ‘Plan B’ for making our wedding day very special for us and well worth every penny! (Shame the venue wasn’t as good) Everyone enjoyed the music and danced their socks off, which was just fantastic and your guys played our 1st dance song supremely, which they learned especially for us.
-
Amanda, Wedding, Essex, April 2009Hi, I just wanted to send a quick email on behalf of Roger and I to thank you for the most amazing set on Saturday night. Everyone has commented on how fantastic you were and many have already asked for your contact details. You really did make the evening even more memorable and even my husband who doesn’t normally dance couldn’t sit down all night so a big heartfelt thank you – I hope we cross paths again! Best regards

Jenny, Wedding, Hampshire, June 2008We just wanted to send an enormous thank you to you and the guys in the band for what had to be THE highlight of our day, your band. We have never seen a full dance floor for an entire wedding reception before, and all ages dancing. You guys were sensational and every bit as good as you sounded over the mp3's we downloaded. I have been asked for your details by a number of people now and I was told that a couple of people also got your details on the night. I used to work for Sony Music in Soho and the music licensing team was there that night and they too have asked for your details to pass on to several people for parties etc.

Becky, Wedding, Surrey, January 2009John and I both wanted to say a huge thank you to Plan B for playing at our wedding. They were absolutely fantastic and played the songs we requested brilliantly - including Mr Brightside - awesome! Everyone had a brilliant time and danced the night away. Many people asked about the band as they thought they were great. All in all we had an amazing day. Thank you again.
-
Rich, Wedding, Wiltshire, September 2008Helen and I just wanted to thank you all for such an amazing evening at our wedding reception at Grittleton House on 27th September. Helen and I had a pretty good idea of what we wanted for the evening and how we wanted it to go and you guys didn't disappoint. We were a little nervous about how things would go, considering we'd never heard you live before. But we needn't have worried. You were truly awesome and made our evening even better than we had imagined or hoped for. Everyone commented on how good our evening was and how brilliant you all were. A particular highlight for us was towards the end where practically every one of our guests were on the dance floor and you were getting our guests to sing along and jump around. It was a great atmosphere and was the perfect finish to our perfect day. So once again, thank you all for making our evening as special as it was. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone thinking of hiring a band. Best of luck for the future and hope our paths will cross again some time in the future.

Ben & Michelle, Wedding, Essex, August 2008Hi Mike, hope all is well with you. We have just got back from Thailand from honeymoon which was great. I thought I would drop you a quick line to say a big thanks for playing at our wedding , the band were awesome and everybody commented on how good they were. The music really made our reception and we had a great time. That was the 3rd time we have seen Plan B and we appreciate your dedication to 'rock'! needless to say our friends were impressed and are going to book you for their wedding early next year. Please also thank the other members of the band on my behalf.

Lawrence, Wedding, Hampshire, July 2008This is soooo embarrassingly late but I just wanted to drop you and the guys a quick email to say how much we LOVED the gig you did for us at our wedding on 1st July (the hot day in Hampshire – so long ago now I hope you still remember it!) We really did have the most amazing time, and so much of that in the evening is down to the music – everyone has commented on how excellent you all were – a huge huge thank you. My husband and I didn’t stop dancing all night and nor did our friends – the dancefloor was consistently full of everyone having a brilliant time! I will certainly be passing your number on if that’s okay!
-
G Holden, Wedding, Worcestershire, June 2008Plan B completely exceeded our expectations in every way. They set up on time, they played our first dance superbly, they interacted with the guests, they looked like they were really enjoying themselves and they got everyone dancing right from the start. The dance floor was full all night and everyone love d them to bits - I am still getting brilliant feedback about them 10 days later. The guys sounded amazing and they are clearly very talented musicians. I would love to hear them again and I can honestly say that they could not have been better for the occasion - stunning!
-
K Bennett, Wedding, Sussex, September 2007Firstly a huge thank you to both Plan B and Alice for making our day so special. You were Fantastic! Everyone has said how great the music was, and in particular Plan B, so hopefully this will lead to many of our friends using you!
-
Marie & Pete, Wedding, Hertfordshire, June 2007We just wanted to drop you a note to say a huge thank you for playing at our wedding. I can't tell you how many compliments you have received from our guests since. You were the talk of the town. So many people have said that they haven't experienced such a fantastic atmosphere at a wedding before and so much of that was down to you guys. Sorry it's taken us so long to send this, we're just getting back to down to earth! We do have a photo that we must forward to you, and we will just as soon as its been forwarded onto us. Thank you again, we hope you all enjoyed yourselves as we certainly did. We couldn't have asked for a better night.

R Smallwood, Wedding, Somerset, August 2006Sorry this is a little belated but we are just beginning to return to normal! We wanted to thank you all SO much for your fantastic efforts at the wedding. We have had a veritable flood of thank you letters and calls and almost without exception they all rave about the band! You did us proud and if you don't pick up a good few more events to play at I'll be very surprised - lots of people have asked who you were so I'll make sure I pass on details. I hope the B&B was Ok and you all made it back safe and sound and I very much hope we'll find another occasion when you might all make it back to Somerset to play at another event. A HUGE thank you to you all - it was absolutely FANTASTIC - and good luck for the future of Plan B.

S Boudier, Wedding, London, June 2006I truly believe you are destined for greatness! So many guests, of all ages, commented on how great the band was. Of any aspect of the wedding, you were the most talked about. For me, you are the most perfect band - funky, upbeat, interactive, sociable and intuitive. I was a little nervous having never heard you play before, but you exceeded all my expectations and more. Thank you all so very much for creating so much energy and fun - you made our day very special.

Tom, The Entrepreneurial Exchange, Glasgow Hilton, April 2006We did it! Our dream of raising over £1 million over the past three years for charity came true on Saturday night when we raised the magical total of £417,000. I am writing to record my thanks for taking the time out of your schedule to come along and support our event on Saturday night. Your superb performance wowed the crowd and the event has been hailed by all who attended as the best ever. Your contribution to the evening went a long way in helping us get to that fantastic total and I hope that you enjoyed the party as much as we did.

B Hare, Wedding Yorkshire, December 2006Apologies in sending on our thanks for the unbelievably fantastic performance you gave at our wedding on December 9th Last year now! We have just got back from honeymoon, Christmas and new year trips! You guys were everything Will Frank said you would be and better. Everyone has raved about you guys and i believe we will be seeing more of you up here in Yorkshire which will be great. I am looking forward to receiving our DVD to catch up on all that went on and take in all the fun and dancing where you had people going for it all night long. You really were amazing and such great guys, please pass on our gratitude to the all the band. We would definately like you to come up again next time we have a party if you are available.

J Moore, Wedding, London, September 2006We had seen Plan B at a friends wedding in Somerset last Summer and thought they were superb, so we hired them for our own wedding earlier this month. They were a great choice that we would make again and again. They are all clearly very high caliber musicians so the quality of their sound is extremely good but more importantly they have exceptional energy which gets everyone dancing – all generations. They turned out a beautiful and gentle You Do Something To Me by Paul Weller for our first dance and then cranked it up perfectly after. Highlights included Living on a prayer (Bon Jovi), a great version of Fix You (Coldplay) which they had kindly put together for us but nothing beat the electric Can’t Stop me Now (Queen) which got the entire reception thrashing it up at 1am. The best live wedding band we have ever seen by a country mile. Thank you.
