I am so so happy I was able to book him for my wedding.

He provided the ceremony music as well as music to welcome guests as they arrived and it set the perfect tone for a romantic, summertime outdoor wedding.

So incredibly talented at both the guitar and singing and he is also a really nice guy! We requested he play Here Comes the Sun by The Beatles, Better Together by Jack Johnson, and Blackbird by The Beatles. He already knew the first two but learned Blackbird just for our wedding and he still did a great job.

Many of our guests asked us who our musician was because his music was so beautiful. We felt so lucky and thankful to have had the privilege of hearing him play on our special day. It was absolutely perfect!

Pub – Bar

We get a lot of demand from bands wanting to play here and dealing with the calls can take up a lot of time. Much easier to just tell them to sign-up on your site.

We booked Lee Alexander as an Elvis impersonator for our mum’s 60th, and he was fantastic! He totally looked and sounded the part, and everyone loved it. He really made the night fun, and he was such a nice man too. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate – thanks so much, Lee!
