"Just to let you know that the surprise birthday last Friday at Crown River Room was fantastic and my wife had the best night of her life.
The band Entice did a great job, they did all the right things and kept the guests happy. The Michael Jackson tribute show however just blew everyone away – literally – the guy can move, what a performer! On top of that he stayed behind for over 20 minutes outside the room to chat with people and take photos - it was worth every cent !
I was very happy and impressed with you and your service, you made it look easy and I’m sure there was a lot more to it to make it all come together. I will keep your number and look forward to using your company again."

"We just wanted to say thank you so much for all your efforts in arranging The Essentials for our wedding. We could not have possibly enjoyed our selves anymore than we did. The Essentials were exactly the band we hope for, you are really very good at reading people and their requirements and then getting them what they want. Please pass on our thanks to the guys, our guests are still raving about how fantastic they were. They were more than happy to chat with our guests and had everyone on the dance floor all night. Really just an excellent band. Our wedding was just fantastic and The Essentials were a big part of making that possible. Thank you so much. I personally look forward to working with you continually at The Point."

They played really appropriate music the whole night throughout meal service and were more than capable of keeping people dancing right into the night (even to the point of having to keep the venue open for a little longer as everyone was having so much fun they couldn't bear to close!). We received so many compliments about the band and a few of our friends are going to be looking at booking the guys in the future. An extra special thank you for the excellent job they did of covering our wedding song, it really made the evening very, very special.

We had guests from 16-65 who ALL commented how fantastic he was so he did a great job of entertaining such a diverse range of ages. In terms of your agency I also rate a ten out of ten. I found the whole process extremely easy and helpful. Your assistance with finding the right person for the job was outstanding and you seemed to understand exactly what I was looking for.

The DJ was the best choice and pls let Rob know I appreciated his patience on the night; the Como served dinner later than expected, so he needed to play dinner music for some time. Tim Ellis the magician was also excellent. A true professional, he had people amazed & laughing. The process of planning a 50th is time consuming and something you want to get right, so I was really glad to have your input."

"Frank Benedetto - WOW! What a night. You’ll recall Sofia’s story about how we came to book you for Sofia’s 40th Birthday Party…
She’d been to listen to a local group of four artists who sing Michael Buble, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett etc songs. When she came home, she was hesitant… She wasn’t certain about their suitability so she asked me to come along and listen to their performance. I knew immediately that this meant she wasn’t happy… so I took her into the study, sat her down and with eyes closed; I played her your sample tracks. “I love it…That’s who I want for my party,” she cried, and the booking was made! I take this opportunity to thank you sincerely, on behalf of Sofia & myself, for the professional manner in which Instinct Music handled the booking.
I extend our appreciation for the time you personally invested in ensuring the musical/technical requirements were met by our local jazz band (Larry Thompson); and that the opening song, accompanied by the Adrenalin Girls, was a show-stopper. Frank was the ‘headliner’ act for the evening and he certainly lived up to that reputation... from his personable nature, his smooth tunes and immaculate presentation.
Our friends have all commented on how superb the act was - how much they enjoyed it - and we certainly couldn’t ask for more!"

"Can I just express how pleased we are with Joe Main and the work he did for our wedding last Saturday. He was terrific.
His initial professionalism was impressive and his keenness to ensure he did a good job was truly appreciated. His rendition to start the ceremony of Amazing Grace was fantastic and the feedback from the guests was overwhelmingly very positive and help make the event a wedding to remember. It was his decision to choose the song and to do this unaccompanied was frankly superb!
He then lead the group singing of a song, You’ve Got A Friend, and without him doing that and confidently cajoling the congregation to participate it would have been very flat… so he was great. I then asked him last week to fill in for my young son who pulled out of singing a number during the official signing of certificates and Joe did a marvellous rendition of the You Are So Beautiful.
I am very impressed with his professionalism and his talent and would recommend him to any wedding party that wanted to have a special moment within their ceremony.
Thanks for your recommendation of Joe."

So now that the dust has settled and we are officially Mr & Mrs Simpson, we wanted to send you a note to say thank you so much for assisting us with our special day.
Firstly thank you Richard for organising the flamenco guitarists, they were a fantastic touch to our ceremony and in the early part of our reception until Stuart commenced. Rob thank you for recognising Stuart was going to be the perfect DJ based on our brief! Stuart, you provided such sensational music for our wedding. Your tunes worked an absolute treat with the perfect selections matching each stage of the night. We personally had incredibly high expectations, all of which you exceeded on the night, and we, together with our guests, were incredibly impressed! In fact many of our guests said that it was the best wedding they had ever been to and you contributed dramatically to this in creating the perfect atmosphere. The greatest delight we had on the night, was to see our guests immediately up and dancing straight after our bridal dance and continued dancing all the way through until the very end of the reception which was just the party we were looking for.
Thank you so much again and we would be delighted to recommend your services to anyone in the future."

I really didn't anticipate what value for money we were getting. They were the highlight of the evening for both my husband and myself and everybody at the wedding commented on what brilliant performers Tim and his band were. I can't dance at the best of times, let alone in a dress weighing a tonne, but I was on my feet on the dance floor, along with the majority of other wedding guests, for the entire performance. I was so happy! It just made my evening.
If you're talking to Tim, please pass on Justin's and my gratitude. Will definitely be recommending your services and Tim's performance for a long time to come."

They were professional, courteous, brilliantly talented, entertaining and really made it an enjoyable night to be had by all and all ages. I am so thankful things worked out the way they did.
I also wanted to say thank you to YOU PERSONALLY - for being so honest and easy going through the process. I came across other pushy "salesman" type personalities whilst looking for entertainment and I wouldn't book with them just for the fact they were pushy and I hated it. ALLURE are such a great band- I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an evening of great entertainment and vocals.

wedding in Wandin on 14th October. The band were perfect for the occasion, we and our guests had a ball dancing to their tunes. We
wouldn't hesitate to recommend Instinct or The Usual Suspects to any of our family or friends in the future. We found the Instinct team to be
always professional, helpful and approachable. We had a ball at our wedding and hope the band enjoyed it as well!"

"Just a short note to thank you for the band "The Essentials" who played at Comme on Saturday night. They were fabulous and really appropriate for the crowd we had - you read us well! They were very professional and sounded much better and bigger live, than over the internet.
The night flew and I never took the opportunity to really provide the band with my heartfelt thanks for their significant contribution to what was a really memorable night. Could you please pass on my thanks, as I was a little self absorbed on the night!"

"We just wanted to say thank you so much for all your efforts in arranging The Essentials for our wedding. We could not have possibly enjoyed our selves anymore than we did. The Essentials were exactly the band we hope for, you are really very good at reading people and their requirements and then getting them what they want.
Please pass on our thanks to the guys, our guests are still raving about how fantastic they were. They were more than happy to chat with our guests and had everyone on the dance floor all night. Really just an excellent band. Our wedding was just fantastic and The Essentials were a big part of making that possible.
Thank you so much. I personally look forward to working with you continually at The Point."

"Andrew and I were blown away by The Essentials. They were absolutley fantastic. They created the exact atmosphere we were after and had everyone up dancing from very early in the night. The set and song selection was excellent and they looked great. We had a BBQ the next day and so many people commented on how great the band was.
Andrew was suffering from meningitis and had been hospitalised all week so unfortunately he didn't make it through most of the reception but The Essentials made the night a great party and I really do extend a massive thank you to them for making the night a huge success despite the "no groom" circumstances!"

"Andrea & I want to let you know how great the band was for our wedding on Sat night. We as a couple are completely stoked with them, and I swear almost every guest must have commented on how great they were (no exaggeration), even asking if they had a CD.
Thankyou for strongly recommending them!"

"Just wanted to drop you a note to say Thank you for your efforts in organising Soul Nights to perform at my wedding. They were absolutely brilliant and very professional! My guests could not stop raving about them. My only disappointment was that they didn't have an opportunity to play for longer! I would highly recommend them for any wedding as they truly know how to deliver entertainment. Please pass on my thanks to them.
It has been such a pleasure to be a customer of your attentive service. I hope you are keeping well and I wish you much success for the year ahead."

"I wanted to send you a note to rave about Acoustic Shoes. The boys played at our wedding on the 8th of November in Terrigal and they were absolutely brilliant! They were so professional and even allowed our family members (fellow muso’s) my cousin, sister and Uncle sing which meant so much to all of us. Everyone had a ball and was raved about how brilliant the boys are. I was so pleased to have found them and highly recommend them; in fact a friend of mine at the wedding was so impressed I believe she will be in contact to use them for an upcoming party."

"We wanted to thank you for providing us with the wonderful Chris Atkinson. He now has a fan base that consists of my friends and family! He was just perfect for the 60 people crowd and truly created the atmosphere at the restaurant with his awesome voice and his sax and guitar. He was just perfect! Since my wedding day is something I will always remember, I wanted to thank you so very much for making it absolutely perfect in giving us the right person for it."

"Just giving a feedback on your talents... THEY WERE GREAT! Especially the illusionist!
The kids were kinda skeptical when he arrived thinking he would be corny... but they STILL talk about him & enjoyed his performance tremendously! The oldies loved him!! DJ TJ was cute & can connect with the youngies music! The party was fantastic & cosy! Thanks again very much for being so helpful... you haven't heard the last of me yet!”
