“Thank you so much to the whole Cheers band for the incredible music you performed at our wedding. It was absolutely amazing and I cannot fault it at all. A true highlight, with many of our family and friends commenting on it both on the night and since then as well. The musical ability on show was fantastic, delightful instruments and wonderful vocals. Also a big thank you for how easy and straightforward you made the communication throughout the whole process, which is massively appreciated.”

“The Cheers performed at our wedding in August 2021. They were absolutely fantastic and everyone had a brilliant time dancing. The acoustic duo were brilliant too. We couldn’t have wished for a better evening. Ben was great over the last 18 months especially as we had to delay twice but he was very reassuring and we managed to get the day we always wanted in the end. I would highly recommend The Cheers”

“The Cheers provided exactly what we were looking for from our wedding band. We were attracted to their option of having up to three singers present and really varied repertoire. This meant that energy was really strong throughout, the increased size of the band adding to the sense of occasion and spectacle. The variety of tracks from disco, classics, rock and pop meant that there was something for everyone throughout the set. The band's experience and expertise meant that genres flowed seamlessly from one to the other. The Cheers were also very flexible both in advance of the performance and on the night. They were happy to accommodate requests for new songs in the repertoire beforehand and were also very patient as the day ran behind schedule, pushing back their start time.”

“Absolutely exceptional. We hired The Cheers for our wedding evening reception and they were superb - our guests loved them and we had the best time. Ben was incredibly responsive in the lead up to our wedding, and nothing was too much trouble - including learning our first dance song. We can't recommend The Cheers enough - thank you Ben and the band!”

“The Cheers were amazing, I hired them for my wedding and I cannot recommend them enough.
From start to finish there communication was excellent. They spoke with the venue directly and created a stress free experience for me. They answered any question I had, and had a very handy guide to use for timings and common questions from their previous experience. They were brilliant.
The band itself is awesome, everyone at the wedding came and asked me where I found the band, they got everyone up and dancing. We had a male and female singer, both were excellent. The song choice they made, had everyone laughing, and bouncing around.
You know there brilliant when the venue asked for their details to recommend them to other couples 😀
I have nothing bad to say, professional throughout, great communication and the music was just perfect. They also learnt our 1st dance song and smashed it out the park.
Thanks Ben and the whole band, It was magical

“We hired The Cheers for a joint 50th birthday party on 10th August 2024 and were super impressed with the band from the very start of communication with Ben to the very end of the party.

A big thanks to Ben for making the organisation process so easy and creating a really personable experience; and thanks to the rest of the band who were incredible and extremely talented! We got so much good feedback from everyone throughout the night and the biggest tell tale was the amount of people up dancing, smiling and having a fantastic time, so much that they didn't want the band to stop playing - the saxophonist was also a fabulous way to start the evening off - music can make or break a party and we definitely got it right by going with The Cheers!”
“A huge thank you to The Cheers for playing at our summer party – they made sure the dancefloor was full all night long! Such a pleasure to work with, they made everything easy and stress-free and were happy to adapt to different timings on the night. They also had a great repertoire and had people from 5 to 85 dancing. We would highly recommend!”

“The band were absolutely excellent and really brought a great vibe to the Hewlett-Packard office! I can tell you for certain that the band did indeed exceed our expectations, and we will keep you in mind for next year. A massive thank you from myself and the HPE team!”

“We booked The Cheers to play at our wedding and were absolutely delighted with the performance, from playing our first dance song to the crowd interaction. Great repertoire of songs as well, and fantastic communication and service throughout the whole process. Very polished, and would highly recommend!”
David & Laura (Wedding)13.08.2021
“We booked The Cheers band for our wedding reception after hearing them at a friends wedding a few years back. The atmosphere the band provides is electric and keeps your guests on the dance floor the entire night, which was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Ben Thornton, the band manager, is approachable and super helpful in accommodating all your requests no matter how difficult they may be. We asked to swap one of the Dj sets for some Greek music which was no trouble for them to do. On the night the band were happy even though our food had been delayed which sadly ate into their first set of playing time. The band took this in their stride and played so amazingly to get our guests up on the dance floor for all the remaining time we had left! Absolutely incredible and I would 100% recommend them and book them again”
Nina & Matthew (Wedding)04.06.2022
“The Cheers played at our wedding in August this year and were absolutely phenomenal from the first set to the last. They were new to the venue but you wouldn't have known. Fuss free, fantastic attitude and with the perfect amount of stage presence for a wedding. Furthermore, Ben, the band manager, was easy to contact, always engaging and friendly, and on-hand for anything we needed. I can't recommend these guys enough. Book them and you won't regret it!”
Will & Aimee (Wedding)12.08.2023
“My husband & I booked The Cheers Function Band for our wedding on the 05/10/2023. After searching for hours and hours for a band they stood out the most as they had so many 5* reviews! And now we know why! We spoke to Ben throughout the whole process and his communication was excellent.
We booked an acoustic duo set for our welcome drinks and the quartet band + saxophone for the evening! We were super keen to have a saxophone finish after seeing this at our friend’s wedding. It was a great addition and a fantastic way to end the night.
The band was absolutely fantastic on the night. We would like to say a special thank you to our lead singer Seonaid - she was brilliant & really engaged with the guests. We had so much complaints about how amazing she was!
We would highly recommend The Cheers Function Band for your Wedding / Event! Thank you so for being part of our special day!”

“We held a garden party July 2021 and The Cheers performed. Rhys and Ben were a fantastic duo, who rolled with the flow of the party, adapted to the vibe and were flexible with our timings. They were friendly and kind people and were happy to chat to the guests and ourselves. The communication before the event was fantastic, giving us a chance to give details on the event and guests and even choose songs from their extensive repertoire list. Professional in the organisation and booking of the band. Excellent quality band, great musicians. I highly recommend the band. Thanks guys!”
Caroline (Garden Party)24.07.2021
“Just wanted to drop you a quick message this morning to say how great you were last night. The set list was perfect, the level was spot on, and you created a really great atmosphere for our drinks reception. More than a few people made an effort to tell me how good they thought you were. So thanks again to you and to the guys 🙂 really appreciate it!”

“Cheers Band were absolutely incredible. They offer different numbers of band members to cater to different styles (trio, quintet etc...) and the whole booking process was quick and simplistic. They also provide a clear list of songs that they have in their repertoire, with the option to specifically include/exclude favourites on the night. Their performance on the day itself was fantastic. They have great energy that encouraged many people to be on the dancefloor to enjoy the evening right until the end. They also handled our father/daughter and first dances very well, introducing each one respectively. My wife and I would totally recommend. Cheers Band are great value for money as well as being excellent performers required for an excellent party. Thankyou for an awesome evening!! Dom & Mere”
Dom & Mere (Wedding)22.07.2022
“The Cheers performed at our Wedding in September 2022. They were so fantastic. We had a full dance floor all night. They learnt our first song perfectly and the whole evening was amazing! The organisation from the manager, Ben, was great. Our wedding had been postponed twice due to Covid and despite that Ben was so approachable and easy to deal with. I’d thoroughly recommend them.”
Grace & Bou (Wedding)03.09.2022
“The band were great and our guests really didn’t want to leave the dance floor at the end of the evening! What bigger praise can anyone give? Many thanks and we will be sure to book you again.”

“The Cheers played for our wedding and were absolutely fantastic. The dancefloor was packed for the whole night and we had so many compliments from our guests about the quality of the music. Ben, their manager, is excellent at communication in the lead up to the day and so I didn't have any worries at all. Once again, the music was amazing, the band were so professional and we had the BEST evening. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.”
Liv & Will (Wedding)02.09.2023
“Thank you! The Cheers band were fantastic and haven’t got a single negative to say. They were all highly professional and so approachable from start to finish if anything needed to be adapted it wasn’t a problem. The quality of the live music was faultless and we all really enjoyed it. Highly recommend.”
Lizzie (70th Birthday Party)08.07.2023
“Very professional band from booking through to performance. Great variety in their repertoire too. Sound absolutely brilliant!! Would highly recommend this fabulous band.”
Rob (Fundraising Event)
“Excellent communication throughout, arrived on time and set up quietly during dinner in a not particularly large marquee, in the middle of nowhere. Friendly and of course an excellent band, playing upbeat songs and a varied set. We have heard a lot from our guests that they thought they were great. The dancefloor was never empty!”
Emma & Matt (Wedding)06.08.2022
“My wife and I recently had The Cheers perform at our wedding where they smashed out banger after banger to ensure all the guests had sore feet and smiles on their faces at the end of the night. Ben’s communication from the very beginning was excellent ensuring our set list was personalised, they even learned our first dance which we greatly appreciated. Between sets they played our created playlist on Spotify which was super helpful. Their set up was swift and the brass accompaniment really took it to the next level. If you are looking a function band for a wedding or party look no further, The Cheers are the one for you! Thanks Conor & Rebecca”
Conor & Rebecca (Wedding)30.07.2022
“Just wanted to say thank you for Saturday. It was really awesome and everyone loved the band so much. The first dance song was incredible and it was just a really fun and awesome night! You kept us dancing all night and that was what we wanted so we are so grateful for that! And all the song choices were great!”
Rhiannon & Alex (Wedding)13.05.2023
“We hired the two-piece set for our University Ball and they were absolutely exquisite. Everybody loved the energy, vibe and song selection, and they were also a dream logistically- Ben replied quickly and with a really friendly manner. Would definitely recommend this band to anyone that want’s to have a good time at their function!”
Joshua Harrison (Dinner/Dance)
“I hired The Cheers for my wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. Not only were they incredible on the day, with so much energy, exceptional performances, and friendly vibes, but they were so flexible and practical leading up to the wedding. I really appreciated how approachable and communicative Ben, the Band Manager, was and how he made me feel that we could figure out some of the practicalities as the wedding plans chopped and changed. A superb band, well organised, professional and got everyone on the dance floor every minute they performed. I would recommend to everyone and will be using The Cheers again, no doubt.”
Joel & Isodora (Wedding)20.04.2024
“The Cheers were absolutely incredible! We booked them for our wedding evening reception and they created such a fun atmosphere and got everyone on the dance floor. The communication we had beforehand was so helpful, they send through a questionnaire so they’ve got all the information they need and they were really helpful in advising what songs would sound best with the vocals we had chosen. Our wedding was in a marquee and we were a bit concerned about the band setting up in the same space as the wedding breakfast but we honestly barely noticed them arriving. They also paused the music and announced our cake cutting when we were running behind schedule. Would 100% recommend.”
Olivia & David (Wedding)06.07.2025
“The Cheers played at our party on Saturday evening with a set between 8.30-9.30 and 10.00-11.00. They were FAB, with many of our guests asking how we had found such a great band. There pre-party arrangements were very easy with us being able to select a play list of our own choosing. We had the 5-piece band which was terrific. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
Andrew & Sarah (Party)05.07.2025
“The band sounded fantastic and totally exceeded our expectations. We had so much fun dancing with our guests, young and old, which we have to credit the band for. They did such a great job keeping the energy up and getting people on the dancefloor. Communication was fantastic throughout the whole process. THANK YOU!”
