8-Ball

“We absolutely loved the band! They were absolutely fantastic! They were so kind and friendly and played such an awesome set for us. We even managed to have great weather so we were able to have them play outside, which was loads of fun. All of our guests have said how much fun they were and what a great atmosphere it brought to the day. Thank you so much for having the perfect band for our big day! We also wanted to say, they learnt our first dance song perfectly. Please thank them so much for us, it really was the most fun having them there!”

“We were very happy with our choice of 8 Ball and Tailored Entertainment - Lian was extremely helpful throughout the process and made us feel at ease that everything had been thought of! 8 Ball made our wedding day! They performed during our ceremony, did a beautiful acoustic set during our drinks reception and created such a party atmosphere during their evening set. The band were so talented and we had so many comments from our guests about how good the music was.”

“We had such a wonderful wedding. 8-Ball were SO good, they had everyone dancing and singing all night. Everything from arrival, set up, to leaving was so smooth. We had so many compliments from our guests on the band, and even the neighbours were having a boogie in their gardens. Thanks for everything!”

“Thanks so much for all of your help in the lead up to our wedding and communicating with the band. Our experience of both Tailored Entertainment and 8-Ball was exceptional - our contact Lian at Tailored Entertainment was extremely helpful, always got back to us quickly and was highly organised meaning that the entire process was stress free - a huge thank you! We would recommend working with you to anyone. 8-Ball were amazing on the day, they sounded brilliant and the song choices were always really good, they definitely kept the party mood going and the dance floor was always packed. A huge thank you for everything!”

“8 Ball were super friendly and put on an excellent show. They really got the crowd dancing & we would hire them again in a heartbeat!”

“They were absolutely brilliant. Some of the band members arrived early. We were running behind schedule but they were really attentive in checking when they were needed. The dance floor was busy the whole night and although friends wanted toilet breaks and drinks, the songs selection was so good that we waited until the end of each set. We had so many compliments on them too from both older and younger guests! We picked them because they played my sister's wedding last year and were better than we remember. I hope they all had a good time too.”

“We wanted to say a huge thank you to the band and you and Lian for organising. The band was amazing, everyone commented on how good they were. They played all the songs we requested and did a great job with our first dance. They covered a great range of genres and got everybody dancing of all ages. They were so professionally, everything set up and taken down with no fuss. We’re so glad we booked them, it really made the evening.”

“The band, 8 Ball, went above and beyond to make our day so special. They were incredible. The dance floor was filled all night long and they created a set list that suited us to a tee. They DJ’d in between as well and took requests. They even let my new wife sing Valerie. So much fun, exceptionally talented individuals and everyone commented on how amazing they were. Thank you for keeping the dance floor busy, for having fun with us, and making our day even more special.”

“We couldn't thank the band enough, they were so incredible and all of our guests commented on how amazing they were!!!”

“5/5 Can't fault anything, the band were absolutely incredible and filled the dance floor all night!”

“I just wanted to send a huge thank you to you and the band for an amazing night. Their first dance medley and the whole show was awesome. So many people remarked on how great they were.”

“We had 8-Ball at our wedding last night and we can honestly say they were incredible!! They really made the evening and everyone commented how good they were. Their sets were brilliant as well as the DJ!”

“They were absolutely amazing! So many of our guests commented on what an incredible band they are. They were prompt and set up ready in time for our first dance which was performed beautifully. I would highly recommend 8 Ball. Thank you so much for being so fantastic.”

“They were absolutely brilliant all night and so many of our guests have commented on how impressed they were. They really did make our night and were so accommodating with a couple of last minute requests we had on the night! Will love to book again one day in the future.”

“They were friendly on arrival and patient with setting up - I know they had to wait a little as they arrived during speeches and our venue was all one long hall. Our dance floor was full all night. We knew our friends would be up for a party but without the great music that wouldn't have happened. We're pleased that we added on the DJ option as having requests went down a storm with guests, so please pass on our thanks to the band!”

“I want to thank 8-Ball for being incredible! They are extremely talented (I never thought anyone besides Vampire Weekend could pull off Vampire Weekend), and just a general lovely group of people. They were patient when we were running behind, and kept everyone dancing! I am just sad that we can’t have another wedding so we can ask them to play again. A huge thank you for their wonderful version of our first dance song, it was perfect.”

“Extremely happy with all aspects. We had literally so many people comment on how great the band were and we've had a couple of requests from friends, post-wedding, who are looking for booking something for themselves. First dance was great and we definitely made the right choice.”

“5/5*”

“Perfect band for our wedding. Got everyone up and dancing throughout the entire evening. Have had many comments from the guests to say how great they all were!”

“They were brilliant! Super pleased with picking them and they really made the night. Sounded great and played all the requested songs so pretty perfect all in all :) They were also great with the audience and really friendly and helpful when they arrived.”

“We had the best wedding day! The band did a cracking job, especially with the first dance request (Foo Fighters' Everlong transitioning from acoustic to full part way through. I couldn’t imagine how it could have been much better to be honest, I’m hoping one of our guests might have filmed some of it so I can relive it! The dance floor was certainly full the whole night, and I had many people say how great they were too.”

“We had an absolutely wonderful day and 8-Ball were just brilliant - thank you so much! They were incredible musicians, played all our favourite songs and had everyone dancing - we were so glad we decided to book them! The whole experience of booking the band has been so easy and communication brilliant so thank you very much for all your help.”

“8 Ball were incredible. Our guests commented on how good they were and that they made the night. The guys were really great chatting to guests while not on stage which was lovely. When we had to postpone our wedding last year TE were fantastic, so accommodating in what I'm sure was a busy time. The form to fill out for the details of the day was easy and clear.”

“Such a fantastic band! All our guests would not stop asking where we found them! The sets were brilliant and really embodied the Indie spirit we were hoping for. We hardly even noticed them arrive and set up, they were so professional! Thank you so so much for making our evening even more original!”

“Please pass on a massive thank you to 8-Ball. When we arrived at the pub the band were set up and ready to play. The acoustic set they played sounded so tight, that many of our guests didn't actually clock that it was being played live. They sounded excellent. After the acoustic set I got a chance to say 'hello' and 'thank you' to Sam – who is a lovely chap. In fact, the whole band are lovely. The evening music got everyone on the dance floor from the first note they played. It was an incredible evening of dancing and live music. My wife and I could not have been happier with the atmosphere they helped create as well as the set-list they played. I particularly loved our special request. It sounded fantastic! One of our guests commented that they wanted to 're-do their wedding again but with 8-Ball'. They were a hit with everyone! The band stayed and supervised a DJ set late into the night, ensuring the dance-floor was always full. A huge, huge, huge thank you again.”

“So many colleagues commented on how good they were and how professional they sounded. They got everyone up on their feet and having dance, I even caught those you wouldn’t expect bobbing along to the music. They brought a great vibe to the event and it was great to see everyone smiling and having a good time.”

“8 Ball were fantastic - really great mix of songs and they sounded amazing, just like the promo videos (had great comments from our guests too). Please can you pass on our thanks and comments to the band - we were having so much fun in the evening that we didn't really thank them properly.”

“Given how many changes we had to go through due to the impact of the pandemic on our original (and two other) dates, the team at Tailored Entertainment were absolutely great. Clear and timely communication throughout really helped take the stress out of organising everything. 8-Ball were fantastic on the day and we were so pleased with their version of our first dance. Having spoken to the band in one of the breaks, I know they were nervous about it but we loved it, and the rest of the night was a total blast! The guests all loved the music throughout the night, and the dance floor was filled pretty much the whole night. Thanks to each of the guys, and to everyone at Tailored Entertainment for helping us.”

“Just wanted to say thank you to 8-Ball for playing at our wedding party a few weeks ago. They were incredible and everyone commented on how enjoyable it was. They really got the party going.”

“Just wanted to say thank you for all your help organising our band! The band were amazing and had everyone dancing right from the first dance, the song choice was brilliant and really made our evening. They really were fantastic and everyone has been saying how incredible they were, we really couldn’t have asked for a better band.”

“I just wanted to let you know how absolutely amazing the band were. They played some brilliant sets, and they really helped to make our wedding day so much fun. All of our guests said how great they were and also how nice the band members were. We had the best day ever and they certainly played a big role in that!”

“We are so happy that we chose 8 Ball for our wedding. We were really worried that due to restrictions we wouldn't get the same experience but the band were amazing and so friendly whenever we spoke to them. We have had so many comments about how good the band were and lots of people asking for their details! We are hoping to have a party for guests that weren't able to attend the wedding and will definitely be booking 8 Ball again. Thank you!”

“The lads from this band are absolutely brilliant - the music was top! If you want a band that get your wedding party going these are the band for you. We loved there music and they were class lads. 100% recommend.”

“8-Ball were fantastic and really helped make the occasion. As far as I am aware they arrived in a timely manner, set themselves up with a minimum of fuss, and were ready to play at the designated time. They didn't play some of the tunes from their repertoire that we had requested, but we think this is because they were judging the requirements of the room and what the occasion demanded. The dance floor was full so they obviously got this correct. All our guests commented that the band were excellent, including comments from guests who are themselves musical that the level of technical musicianship was very high, and that they made an excellent sound for a 4 piece band. The band members themselves were very friendly. They were excellent, and exactly what we were looking for to help our celebration. We would thoroughly recommend them.”

“We had an absolutely amazing day! 8-Ball were soo fantastic! The dancefloor was full from the moment they started playing to the moment they left!
They were also such lovely friendly guys as well as great musicians! Cannot recommend them enough they made our wedding reception a party to remember!
The girls at Tailored entertainments have also been fab throughout booking and the arrangement process leading up to the big day so thanks to all.”

“We had a great day, thank you for all your help over the last few weeks. Can you let the band know how grateful we were last night for everything they did for us. They were so helpful and went out of their way to make the night perfect. Also how f***ing good are the band!!!!!!! Everyone was loving the tunes and the set they played was bang on the money, we love them!”

“Band were accommodating on the day, played excellently and nailed our first dance song. Thank you so much! All members of the team from Tailored Entertainment were so helpful all the way throughout the process. 10/10 Thank you!!”

“Wow wow WOW! 8 Ball were absolutely incredible and kept the party rocking right until the very end. Me and Meghan have a very particular taste is music and when we found you, we knew 8-ball we’re the band for our wedding. The music was tight- the energy was real and the overall vibe was one to remember. Would definitely recommend 8-ball in a heart beat. They helped Taylor our day with little shout-outs and were just a pleasure to work with!”

“Honestly can't thank you all enough at Tailored Entertainment and 8-Ball - everything was organised perfectly and the band were incredible! Even better than we could have hoped for, the guys are so talented and got everyone up and dancing - the atmosphere was amazing :) everyone has been so nice too. All our family and friends were really impressed with the music, and so complimentary. Will definitely highly recommend. Thanks a million, Kjerstin and Dave.”

The boys were super polite and professional and really knew how to play a good tune. They responded brilliantly to the guests and atmosphere, and chose a great playlist for both sets. Lots of friends have said that they thought the band were brilliant and where did I find them!
So thank you very much 8 Ball and Tailored Entertainment - you made my party one to remember!!”

“Thank you to the band for a wonderful show. They were absolutely amazing. The feedback we got from our guests was amazing regarding them and I think there will be more business coming there way. Hotel and our guests requested business cards.

We would like to thank you all so much for making our evening so special. Thank you. I would highly recommend the band to anyone.”

“We both would like to say we and all our guests loved 8-Ball, the dance floor was always filled and everyone said how amazing they were!!

They truly made our evening even more perfect thank you soo soo much.”

“Everything was great!! From the beginning everything was so easy to organise with great communication and feedback from the agency which really took the stress out of it all. On the day the band were absolutely perfect! The music was fantastic, exactly what we wanted and the performance of our first dance song in particular was great!!!! The dancefloor was full for the entire night and all of our guests had a great time, so many of them have told us it was the best wedding band that they had heard! The band themselves were also very friendly and helpful, really working with the other suppliers to help make things go smoothly.
We had so much fun throughout the night and really could not have asked for anything else from the band and cannot compliment them enough!”

“Thanks again for recommending 8-Ball for my NYE party last night… I was nothing but impressed!

The lads were punctual, polite & professional & they had the mess members on the dancefloor all evening. I have received lots of positive feedback from people who attended last night & they were all complimentary about the band.

Thank you for your communication & assistance with this booking, I have a busy social calendar in my mess so hopefully we can do business again in the future.

I spoke to the band members before they left last night & I hold regular band nights/balls etc…and 8-Ball were amongst the best I’ve seen!”

“5/5 - My guests absolutely loved you guys, really fun and had everybody up dancing all night! Thank you!!”

“We came across 8 ball randomly whilst trying to find a wedding band online.
We listened to a couple of their tracks and it seemed to be the type of thing we wanted for our wedding.
We cannot believe how lucky we got with choosing this band!
They began the evening by playing a brilliant version of semi sonic, secret smile that they had prepared for our first dance.
They then proceeded to play fantastic tune after fantastic tune and had a packed dance floor all night long.
All my wedding guests have been raving about the band and I cannot remember a wedding reception where people were enjoying themselves quite as much as they were on this night!
Thank you so much for your amazing music and charisma, I am so glad we chose you as our wedding band.”

“5/5 - The band were fantastic - extremely friendly and helpful. Music was brilliant. Would highly recommend!”

“5/5 Brilliant band. Great fun and everyone commented on how much then enjoyed them.”

“I just wanted to say how great a night we had. The band were fantastic, really nice guys and they entertained everyone and all of our guests keep telling us how great they were. Our first dance was perfect, couldn't have asked for anything better. Please thank the guys from me and my husband, truly fantastic.”

“Me and my husband Ben hired 8ball for our wedding on the 6th of Aug, we just wanted to say thanks to them they were incredible and everyone loved them! They did so well with the sound monitor in the venue and were great working around us due to set backs. They were lovely guys and we really appreciate and are grateful for them helping make our day as amazing as it was.”

“I have to say that 8 Ball were amazing. They really got the crowd going and the dance floor was constantly full of people dancing and having fun. The 2 1 hour sets absolutely flew by. We couldn't be more happier with them. I hope they enjoyed themselves as well. We were also very impressed with how the boys conducted themselves, very personable and professional. We're aware that one of our guests have already recommended them on to a friend, who has since made a booking; and we ourselves wouldn't hesitate in booking them again should a future occasion arise. Thanks again to all of you.”

“Hi Phoebe,We had a great night thank you! Just got back from honeymoon today. Many thanks for helping us with booking 8-Ball. The band were brilliant from start to finish and a pleasure to work with. Polite, courteous and professional at all times and were very self-sufficient with the set up. They had the audience entertained from start to finish with a good mix of old and new songs as well as the traditional wedding classics. They also provided a great DJ set in between them being on stage. We would have no hesitation referring 8-Ball to anyone who might be looking to book them in the future and please let us know if we can be of any help with a review. Thanks also for your help with the booking.”

“Thank you very much for the kind support in helping us to deliver such an amazing 50th anniversary party. Your generosity in providing such fantastic music for the event helped it to be what it was; it was a fantastic night celebrating 50 years of life boating in Lymington. The whole crew and team thank you for your generosity.”
