“Hi Robin, Well what a night!
I hope you guys enjoyed yourselves because you were brilliant!
You accommodated a very dodgy first dance extremely well and we thank you for getting as close to the CD version as you did!!
The feedback on the wedding has pretty much always ended up with “And the band was fantastic!”
Nick has a tremendous voice and his partnership with the delightful Suzanne is great to watch and listen to... You are a great band who produce such a high calibre of music and will hopefully get some further work from those that went to the wedding.
In short you are talented musicians, fantastic singers and great people and you gel together as a great band. You ensured our wedding day ended on a fantastically high note and we will be forever grateful!
We are keen to come and see you again and soon so drop us some dates.
Take care
 

Paul and Anna Gration – Wedding

“Dear Suzanne & Get-Ready, What can we say? Words cannot express how much everyone loved you. Everybody loved everything about the ball, but mostly they said ‘the best bit was without a doubt the band, cant wait to hear them again.  They were fantastic, such a great sound, great voices, the whole package. So well dressed, such great rhythm, brilliant performers’ etc. etc
You played everything everyone likes to dance to, and they danced their socks off. We feel privileged to have had you perform for us.   The best live band ever.
Thank you so much, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. I don’t think anyone is going to top that for quite some time; if ever! Please tell the band how great they were. We just love them
 

Teresa and Michelle,   Regency Ball party

Both Sam and I wanted to thank you for a fabulous evening, when you played at our Wedding Reception on 18th September. Your Band was fantastic, and contributed to an unforgettable night for us. Please pass our heartfelt thanks to all members of Get Ready. I've listen to music all my life and I can honestly say your playing along to YMCA on the CD and your rendition of 'La Vie En Rose' were probably the two best things I've ever heard! (seriously). If there is anything we can do to help promote your band we would only be too willing. You only need to ask. A considerable number of people came up to us on the night, and subsequently, to say how good you were. Regards & good luck.”
 

Peter and Sam Francome – Wedding

“On behalf of the committee we would like to say a great big "Thank you" to the Band. The evening was a great success...”

“Hi, just wanted to say thanks for an amazing set on Friday night at Oakley Hall, your performance was the highlight of the evening and I’m sure made the evening very memorable for all of us who were there; looking forward to seeing you again!
 

Steve Mayhead - Oakley Hall Ball

"Just a quick than-you note to all of Get Ready on behalf of Nina, Chrissy, Aran and myself, for what was a superb performance at Chrissy’s wedding.
Get Ready ‘made’ the evening reception - your performance, vocals, and ‘rocking’ soul/party music kept the dance floor packed and so enjoyable that everyone commented that you were the best ‘live’ band at any reception that had been to.
Thanks you for making a special day extra special, and finishing on a high - FANTASTIC,.
Best wishes and regards”
 

Chris Lee – (Father of the Bride)-Wedding

"Get Ready were just fantastic, we had 150 guests at our wedding and we think that every single person danced for some part of the evening. The quality of the sound and the professionalism of the band members was absolutely super and to us, nothing could have been improved. We would whole-heartedly recommend Get Ready and we look forward to engaging them at some point in the future to celebrate a special anniversary".
 

Ana & Roger Marris – Wedding,

“Dear Get Ready
Just a quick note to thank you all for a wonderful performance on the night of our wedding earlier this year.
All members of the band were superb, it was an excellent night and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. You made a perfect day complete, in fact Tash and I may have to get divorced, just so we can get married and do it all over again.”
 

Chris and Natasha Johnson – Wedding,

"Get Ready made our wedding reception unforgettable. Their broad range of music was appreciated by all ages. They gave the reception a party atmosphere and a sense of occasion which would not have been possible with only a disco. Nothing can equal the excitement of a live band and I must thank them for making our wedding reception an incredible experience. If you need a band at your wedding you must choose Get Ready. Throughout the day they were professional, helpful and played some amazing songs. Book them now."

Charlotte and Richard Copas – Wedding

Many thanks for your performance at the Gillette Christmas Party on 4 December. You certainly exceeded my expectations and contributed to a very successful evening. I have had a lot of positive feedback from the guys in the factory along the lines of 'great' and 'fantastic'!!! I was impressed with the band’s professionalism and appearance as well as the quality and range of your music... you skillfully managed to keep the dancefloor full until the end of the evening. Please pass on my thanks to the rest of your colleagues, I hope that you have a Merry Christmas”
 

Andrew Walker - Gillette

“Was it good for us? It wasn’t just good for both of us it was absolutely fantastic!! So sorry we haven’t got back to you it’s been absolutely manic since we got back from our honeymoon. We’ve had lots of lovely comments from our guests on how good you were & I think one or two even took your details so hopefully you’ll get some more bookings from it. If you’re due to play at any public functions please let us know as we’d love to come & see you.”
 

Pippa Gilbey – Wedding

 On behalf of the Parents Association and the hundreds of guests at the Masked Ball on Saturday, I wanted to convey our thanks for a fantastic evening. Whilst there are many components that go into making a good evening, your music was superb and we have had such positive feedback with regard to the quality of your music and the quality of the performance. Once again, a really big thank you to you all. Have a great summer and here is to another Ball in two years time if you will come.”
 

Dawn Brown – Masked Ball, Cranford House PA

 “We all had a great time, you were brilliant! Our CEO flew in from Chicago for this event and was mightily impressed, especially with your Blues Brothers songs”
 

Thoughtworks ball, Gibson Hall, London

”You were absolutely fantastic (and almost as good as the chocolate cake...)!  All of the guests that we have seen or spoken to since we got back have been waxing lyrical about how good you were and that the music you played was great for dancing to. I have to say that we were also very impressed at how well you worked with the DJ, especially seeing as you hadn't met before.
We certainly had an amazing night and the set you played was spot on - thank
you.  We will highly recommend you to all our friends and colleagues! Many thanks for all your hard work”
 

Genevieve Saliot – Wedding

“Steve and I just wanted to say thank you for making our wedding day go with a swing. The only talk in the village the next day was about the ‘fabulous band’ that had kept everyone dancing until midnight”
 

Nicky and Steve Hupe – Wedding

“Please would you pass thanks on to Get Ready for us - they were superb!”
 

Rob Appleby – Thatcham Baptist Church

 “Not having heard 'Get Ready' first hand (only on your demo CD), I must admit I was a little concerned about whether we had made the right decision or not, especially as we asked you to play the first dance for us!! I can now say that we made a great choice and that we couldn't have hoped for anything better... From our first contact everything was dealt with professionally, everything was documented, you contacted the venue for us to check staging and power etc, you met us at the venue to discuss timings and then on the day the performance was fantastic.... As a testimonial to how good we think 'Get Ready' was we have already recommended the band to a number of friends...   Thank you for contributing to our big day, we now can't wait for the video to see how bad our dancing really is and how good you guys were!!! I'm sure our paths will cross again... Thanks again.”
 

Damian and Kirsty Wakefield – Wedding,

Viv and John Gordon -  Joint Birthday Party

“Thank you so much for the fantastic performance from Get Ready, that set Temple Island alight on the 10th of September 2005. Melissa and I were so impressed with your organisation and professionalism from the beginning, and your flexibility and willingness to ensure that our day was so special. Even ringing up the day before the wedding and wishing us all the best was a lovely thought. Deciding on music for a wedding is a difficult thing, and I complement Get Ready on the perfect mix that catered for our broad spectrum of wedding guests. If only we knew then, what we know now we could has saved ourselves the time and effort in searching for our ideal performers. We have never been to a wedding where from the first song, everyone hit the dance floor and stayed there until is was time to leave.
When discussing the wedding day with people Get Ready always get a mention, and I'm sure this will not change, as the performance and energy of the band will be hard to forget. Please pass on our thank you to all the band members, and I hope they enjoyed the atmosphere that they worked so hard to create.
We wish you and Get Ready every success in the future, and will have no hesitation is recommending you should the opportunity arise. Thanks Again”
 

Melissa and Martin Stanton -Wedding

“We were really pleased to have Get Ready headlining on the main stage at this year’s May Ball. We have had some good feedback and you really did us proud. Thanks again”
 

May Ball committee - Exeter College Oxford

“We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the rest of Get-Ready for performing so brilliantly at our wedding a few weeks ago. We had so many comments from people saying how good you were and how much they enjoyed the music and your performance. Both Clare and I thought the day went really well, everything seemed to flow extremely well and ran like clockwork. As you predicted we didn't get round to thanking you personally on the day, but it’s just a testament to how much we were enjoying ourselves. Thanks again, and we would thoroughly recommend you to any one of our friends equally mad enough to take the marital plunge!
 Regards”
 

Clare and Ewan Quinn, - Wedding

“You guys were great! We haven’t had the bar jumping like this since we opened”
 

Luke-Harvey, the Blowing Stone Inn

“What a fabulous night we all had! I have had so many comments about how great the band was from friends and family and right they were. From the moment you guys were on, the dance floor was packed - and the party didn’t finish until gone 2am. Thanks so much.”
 

Nikki and Richard Gray – Wedding

“All my guests were very complimentary about the sound Get-Ready produced and the sense of fun instilled in the performance. Here's a quote from one "Thanks Gavin for a great party.Hope you enjoyed it, as everyone else seemed to. The band was damn good too." One of my guests was Simon Currie the renowned session musician (Shirley Bassey etc) and alto-sax playing member of The Manfreds) and he was very impressed with the band! So I can't say fairer than that...”
 

Gavin Croucher - 50th Birthday Party

“Thank you so much – you guys were fantastic, even better than we expected”
 

Lucie & Shaw Duncan – Wedding,

“Dear Suzanne. I wanted to thank you and your entire band so much and say that we enjoyed your performance tremendously. The energetic dancing of all our guests from your first song to the last spoke for itself too! We also very much appreciated that you did play longer than you were originally able to promise and I am sure it must have been due to the excellent atmosphere created by your band and that you had so much fun too. We feel that our charity ball was a fantastic event and we really appreciate your large part in contributing to this great success!

Many thanks to Get Ready from the entire British Society for Heart Failure!”
 

Rose-Marie Wlikinson - BSH

“Thanks for making my 50th birthday party one to remember. Get Ready were marvellous, the dance floor was full from the moment you started and people are still commenting on what a great band you were”
