Once again Madison delivered.
Our friends and family loved the band who performed two tight, floor filling sets at our 40th birthday party.
Madison's rendition of The Smiths 'There is a Light.....' was simply sublime.

“Absolutely fantastic band and photographers! So professional yet friendly to all of the guests and you wouldn't even know the photographers where there, it was completely hassle and stress free and the music got absolutely everyone on their feet, the dance floor was full all night! Couldn't recommend them enough for other people's special day!”

“I can't speak highly enough of Madison. From my first enquiry right through to the final song of the evening they have proven to be a first class group along with being great guys. The range of music they provide is limitless and you can see why they are constantly in demand. At one point in the evening I was even invited up by Nick to sing a portion of "We Will Rock You" by Queen. This was not something that was planned and it just goes to show level of service they can provide. TOP CLASS!”
Mr & Mrs Morris
Wedding, 2015, Radisson Blu, Liverpool
“Madison where the best part of our wedding, since the day we booked them to perform we where very excited as we had seen them play at the cavern club, on the night of the wedding they didn't fail to disappoint we had an amazing time and so did all our guests and they all commented on how good the band was, from the set up to the songs and getting everyone to dance it was incredible. I would advise anyone to book them”

Wedding, 2015, Knowsley Hall, Liverpool
“We were delighted with the service we received from Madison, right from our first enquiry. The band was always prompt to reply to e-mails and helpful in answering any questions. We were pleased to have the chance to see Madison play the Cavern before booking. The band was great on the night and guests have commented on the quality of the band. We had a silent disco at the end of the night and the band was helpful in running it and getting guests involved.”
Mr & Mrs Lampkin
Wedding, 2015, Thornton Hall, Wirral
“Three genuinely nice guys and clearly very talented, such a wide range of music genre and great versatility. Made every effort to answer all our questions and queries before booking, prompt at replying to emails and quite happy to work myself and husband regarding music and requests for our function. Arrived and blew our guests away. Great web presence, regularly update videos of performances, especially acoustic. Came highly recommended and would definitely recommend to others.”
Mr & Mrs Platt
Wedding 2015, Sandhole Oak Barn, Cheshire
“Madison are lovely down to earth lads, all very friendly and happy. I was quire fussy as in between their sets I had a list of specific songs I wanted putting on as me and my friends have certain dances we do to songs. Nick was very patient and accommodating and I never felt it was too much trouble for him. When they were performing they were absolutely fantastic as predicted, they even had some of our guests up singing with them with blow up guitars from the photobooth. Definitely recommend!!!!”
Mr & Mrs Taylor
Wedding, August 2015
“Nick, Paul & Phil are just fantastic. From the first time watching them in Liverpool, I absolutely fell in love. Their personalities come through when they perform, they have such a strong bond and you can tell that they love what they do. The song Nick sang (acoustically) for our first dance was beautiful, exceptional considering he hadn't heard of the song previously. I follow them on social media and show them off via their website whenever anyone asks who our wedding band was. Love them all!”

Wedding, December 2013
Hi guys. We wanted to thank you for making sure our wedding was the huge celebration we had dreamed of. We discovered Madison at a friends wedding and knew there and then we had found our wedding band after dancing until our feet literally gave way! You made organising things with you all the way from Melbourne so easy.
We started the night without a first dance planned (Dave hates dancing) and ended it with us both thinking we were Kylie and Jason (or whatever a cooler version of that is that I can't think of right now!!) in the middle of the dance floor with everyone we love having an absolute blast.
Special thanks to Nick Ellison who we also booked to sing acoustic as I walked down the aisle - the memories we have whenever we listen to Stand By Me are just incredible.
BOOK THIS BAND NOW FOR YOUR WEDDING - THEY ARE AMAZING!! xx
Mr & Mrs Bush
Wedding, December 2013
What can we say apart from WOW! Madison Party simply made our wedding reception. Right from our first dance (which they learnt for us and was truly incredible) the dance floor was rammed all night. So many of our guests have commented on how fantastic they were and you only have to look at our pictures to see what a fab party they made it.
The guys are lovely and it was a pleasure to have them at our wedding.....if only we could do it again!!
Amazingly talented, brilliantly fun and without doubt the best band around. We can’t wait to see you again soon!

Wedding, August 2013
Quite simply put, without Madison, our wedding would not have been what it was. We have received a huge amount of messages from guests and even suppliers to our wedding on how amazing the band were. Given the massive variety of songs they offer, the quality of music that they provide is absolutely astounding and not only are they all uber talented, they are lovely people and an absolute dream to work with; this is not your typical wedding band! They are consummately professional and will go out of their way to ensure that you receive exactly what you want for your event.
From the moment they took to the floor to start playing, to the moment they left after a wonderful DJ set, the dancefloor was jam packed and the atmosphere was rocking. They have contributed so much to the memories of our day and we cannot thank them enough. If you need first hand proof of how good they are, go to one of their gigs and see for yourself - guaranteed you will not be disappointed and will want to book on the spot.
We're actually trying to think of events to plan solely so we can book them again!
Thanks again guys - you were amazing.
Mr & Mrs Forster
Wedding, September 2013
We wanted to say a massive thank you to the band, you were absolutely amazing.I'm constantly receiving messages & calls from my guests at the wedding telling me that you guys really made the night.You did an awesome job of our first dance, I can't thank you enough.I will be recommending you & hopefully be hiring you for my charities next event.
Mr & Mrs Ward
Wedding, August 2013
Booking Madison to play at our wedding was the BEST decision we made and they turned our wedding day into something no one will ever forget! I spent hours searching for a wedding band; we didn't want a 'generic' band - we wanted something special, something unique and a band that were cool and would appeal to our likes whilst pleasing the wider age range of guests. We love our rock and indie so the Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Reef, Guns and Roses etc all went down a storm and had the dance floor full of guests singing and dancing and jumping around whilst the Beatles medley, Queen Medley and Tina Turner classics kept the dance floor heaving with young and old alike.
The band listened to what we wanted, they looked uber cool and professional and were full of energy and talent. The acoustic set in the afternoon was beautiful and set a relaxed, happy vibe and the evening set up was superb; lights, disco service, live music - what more could you want?! Many of our guests complimented us on how it was the BEST wedding they had attended in years and in particular, highlighted the band as the reason.. It was just so much fun! A real party!
My outstanding memory is every guest creating a huge square around me and my hubby as the band blasted out 'Hey Jude' and everyone was singing and swaying before it burst into a fast crescendo of awesomeness and everyone jumping all over the joint - just Brilliant! Best money we spent on our wedding. If you are umming and arring, being indecisive about whether to treat yourselves - think no more and BOOK them!
You WILL NOT REGRET IT!

Wedding, June 2013
Just thought we’d ping a quick note to thank you for playing at our wedding. We had a great time and thought you guys were great, a number of guests also commented on how good you were. The dance floor was full from start to finish and you definitely got the party going.
We’ll have no hesitation recommending you to anyone else we know either getting married or who need a band for any other event.

This was the first time I’ve seen and heard Madison. They played at the evening reception and kept the dance floor full and bouncing. Their lights and smoke created such a cool atmosphere and also helped me capture some of my favourite dance floor shots of all time. They are another wedding supplier who I will now be highly recommending to my clients, and hope to work with again soon!

Madison ! We can't thank you enough for making our Wedding extra special. You really do have the WOW factor ! So professional! You exceeded our expectations. Everyone commented on how fantastic you were and we can't wait to see you again!
Katie & Patrick
Wedding, September 2012
Madison sounded great and had a set list of songs that we loved. They also sounded from the reviews like they were professional and friendly – we didn’t want any divas! They were actually very humble but extremely good at what they did, getting everyone involved as well.
All of our friends and family enjoyed themselves, something we felt a live band would help with. Madison played a good mix of old and new songs, with everyone of all ages on the dance floor.

Wedding, August 2012
You guys rocked it!! We seriously had the best day and night of our lives and you guys created just what I had always dreamed off, an overcrowded dance floor that nobody wanted to leave!!
Everyone has been saying today how brilliant you all were day and night. It was fab that Natalie stuck around in the evening.
Thanks so much to all of you!
P.s Our friends will be getting in touch soon, they decided that they want to book you for their wedding next year. Beware it will be same mad crowd x.
Mr & Mrs Watson
Wedding, May 2012
What a way to celebrate our wedding! Madison performed all our favourite songs from The Beatles to Kings of Leon and had all our friends and family dancing away into the early hours. Many of our guests and ourselves now go to watch them perform in local venues on a regular basis and they never fail to impress.
Andy & Becky
Wedding, June 2012
Madison played at our wedding in the Palm House and it was fantastic, such a fun night and the dance floor was never empty - so many of our guests still say the band were amazing 7 months after the wedding! Our video guy even says they're the best he's seen on the wedding circuit, you're all great guys and there were definitely no complaints! Thanks again for playing, we didn't want the party to end! Our cousins who jammed with you say it's the best night of their lives, so thanks again guys, you rock!
Mr & Mrs Morgan
Wedding, August 2012
We would like to say a massive thank you for performing at our wedding at Thornton Manor. You were extremely helpful through the whole process and the performance on the night was amazing. All the guests commented on the quality of the music and the dance floor was always full. The DJ set after the live set was also very good. I will certainly be recommending you to all family and friends in the future.
MORE TESTIMONIALS
Hi guys
We just wanted to say a massive thank you for performing at the wedding. We had a great day and thought you were excellent, as did all the guests. We've had loads of people comment on how good you were and the dancefloor was packed all night. Thanks also for letting Phil and his best man get up to relive their uni days. I think that was the highlight of both of their days! Will, the best man, was asking for your details and I think he may have booked you for his own wedding next year in Norfolk so will no doubt see you again then!
Kate & Phil, Wedding, November 2012
Its been 3 months since our wedding and the first thing any of the guests tell us are 'how good were the band!' We've been swamped by people asking for their details ever since. I work in the music industry in Yorkshire and work with a lot of cover bands, these guys are by far the best I've ever heard - absolutely stunning live, a great set which had everyone dancing. Would not hesitate to recommend them and look forward to seeing them again soon
Mr & Mrs Moore, Wedding, November 2012
We hired Madison Party for the evening reception of our wedding last October and they were fantastic! Efficient and professional throughout, Madison Party gave us an absolutely outstanding party which loads of our friends and family have said was one of the best they'd ever been to. I would certainly hire them again and wouldn't hesitate to encourage others to do the same.
Samantha Long, Wedding, October 2012
We booked Madison to play for our wedding, they were amazing! They created a great atmosphere to the evening with a variety of songs and a great stage! I would recommend anyone thinking of hiring a band to definitely go for Madison.
Mr & Mrs Gilbert, Wedding, September 2012
We just wanted to say and HUGE thank you for the absolutely fantastic entertainment you provided at our wedding on Friday. We had a truly magical day and you all really helped to make it a night we are never going to forget. We loved your choices of music and they way you got everyone so involved (special 'cheers' for letting me and my friends do 'Valerie' with you!)
You are all very talented and professional and we wish you every success in the future. We would love to see you play again so please keep your website updated with any public gigs you may be doing.
We would also really like to provide a testimonial for your site so I would appreciate it if you could let me know how I can do this.
Leonnie and Dan, Wedding, July 2012
I would just like to say a massive thank you to you all for the amazing performance from yourselves at our wedding, at the Hard Days Night.
Both Michelle and I, have been swamped with compliments regarding your display, and have had numerous requests for your details.
I know that everyone says that they had the best day of their lives on their wedding day, but you really did help to make it a truly memorable event.
Thank you again
Kevin and Michelle, Wedding, June 2012
Hey Guys,
Just got back from Honeymoon and wanted to send an email to say Thanks for making our Wedding so memorable! The first thing we booked when planning the wedding was the band, and everyone is so glad we booked you! Madison were the ultimate crowd pleasers, kept the dance floor full all night and made the night for so many of Lysette’s family by letting her sister sing with you guys – we really can’t thank you enough.
Mr and Mrs Bell, Wedding, May 2012
Just a quick email to say thank you for such a great night on Friday night – we never had any doubt – but so many of our guests said how good the band were and that you stole the show in the evening!
Great to see and hear you guys play again and we understand you gave out a few cards on the night and just hope that we are privileged enough to score an invite to any of our guest’s future weddings so that we can hear you play again!
Scott and Francesca, Wedding, July 2011
Hope all is well. Just emailing yourself and the other band members to say thank you for the other night. Your band were excellent and everyone who I have spoken to have said how they thought the Band were the best part of the night. Once again thank you for helping me in making the evening a good night for everyone there.
Mr & Mrs Tordoff, Wedding, June 2011
What can I say – Madison played at our wedding in Kent on 1st April 2011. They are by far the best band we have ever heard, the dance floor was full all night and thanks to them, our wedding day was the best day of our lives. The impromptu after hours acoustic session was so much fun and a great way of rounding off the evening!! We can highly recommend the band who also acted as DJs between their sets. We are trying to think of another reason to have a party so that we can hire them again – thanks so much guys for making our wedding day so amazing - it was great to meet you all and hope to see you all again very soon.
Chrissie & Graham, Wedding, March 2011
“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! So much so that our friends who get married next year and also one of our relatives have booked them! They were truly brilliant, they played a great range of music for all ages from Killers to the Beatles and the dance floor was packed all night! We wanted to make our wedding a little bit different and not just have a DJ. So my husband had only one task....to book a good band and even I have to admit, he did brilliantly! They were a great band, really talented and lovely people to have at our wedding and it was the one thing that all of our guests commented about in the morning (not my dress......but how good the band were!) Absolutely 10 / 10, we would recommend them to anyone for any occasion. Thank you for making our wedding reception so memorable! You even have a small place in our wedding album to remind us of the fantastic night we had!”
Sarah & James, Wedding, August 2010
“To add more weight to this testimonial I would firstly like to point out that I rather a cynic and never wholly believe the testimonials one reads on the web. However, every good thing you read about Madison is categorically true. They were quite the most brilliant band. They made all the difference to our wedding and hugely contributed to the best day of our lives. They were easy to liaise with, listened to our requirements, responded so well to our guests (their audience) and were simply jolly great fun, not to mention extremely talented musicians. Both my husband and I, and all our friends are attending many weddings now and feel we have pretty good knowledge of bands doing the circuit these days. Every single thank you letter has spoken of this band so highly and all our feedback has been that no-one has ever seen a better band at a wedding! It is a truly deserved accolade and one that makes us very proud to have chosen them! Unforgettable, brilliant, lovely and talented - book them!!!!!! PS.
I have actually recommended (with success I hope) you to other friends and will continue to do so! Thank you so much indeed,”
K , Wedding, August 2010
“We have just got back from our Honeymoon!!! I have had to send this email to you to thank you once again for a fantastic night!!!
Everyone from our wedding are still talking about you guys.......What an amazing night, you made it something else!!!!! Thank you so much for learning Truly Madly Deeply at such short notice, it was just perfect!!!! The dance floor was always full!!!! We send our love to you guys. Thank you so much for making our day something very special and perfect!!!
Kerry & James, Wedding, August 2010
“We just wanted to say a big thank you for playing at our Wedding reception. We were truly overwhelmed by your performance. Our guests all thought you were amazing and you had them all up on the dance floor (even the ones that don't do dancing!!). Even after the wedding people are still talking about how brilliant you were and we will be passing your details on to all our family and friends. You made our evening really special and one we will remember for the rest of our lives.”
Steph & Ged, Wedding, May 2010
“Thanks for an incredible gig on sunday, we all had so much fun and everybody loved you guys! Perfect for the occasion and glad you guys stuck around afterwards.”
Miss Hale, Birmingham Medical School Graduation Party, July 2010
“Just a quick note to thank you and the band for doing such a cracking set at our wedding on the 3rd of July. I spent all night on the dance floor instead of circulating around the guests - whoops! The guests had nothing but praise for you and you kept the dance floor full all night.”
Chris & Kellie, Wedding, July 2010
“Just a quick one to say thanks so much for performing at our wedding, it was great and we've had so much feedback from people saying how great the band was. It couldn't have gone better and was exactly what we wanted - I didn't envisage the crazy dancing or karaoke but that was great too!
Thanks again, and we'll be sure to recommend you to everyone we know”
James & Ella, Wedding, May 2010
“Madison were absolutely amazing!!
They played the perfect mix of songs and they even did requests on the spot, I was very impressed. The dance floor was packed all night and we all really wanted them to continue. The lads were very friendly and professional and seemed to really enjoy what they do. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who loves to have a dance.”
Sammy & Ed, Wedding, February 2010
“Hi there I just wanted to thank the band for playing at our wedding on July 11th 2009. Everyone loved you, and the dance- floor was never empty. Everyone said it's the best wedding party they had attended. The music was spot on and I would definitely recommend you to anyone else. Exactly what we wanted thanks again”
Natalie & Allan, Wedding, July 2009
“Just a quick note to thank you all for a fantastic night of entertainment for our wedding it really made the evening something special and is still being talked about now.
Your version of our Paulo Nutini song for the first dance could not have been better even if the man himself had performed.
I’ve passed your details on to a few people who have asked. Hope you get lots more bookings and we may get to see you again.”
Colin & Emma, Wedding, November 2009
“Hi, Nick, Paul and Phil, we want to say how fantastic you made the party and how everyone has been talking about it since. The music was brilliant, contributing to everyone having a great time. We would recommend you to anyone wanting to have great music at their event.”

I have already booked the hotel again for next year - I would love it if Madison could play again at the ball - please say Yes!”
