Vicki Jagger, Birthday Party Event, Lancashire
Absolutely Fantastic! They were everything they advertised to be. They've gained loads of new fans, special thanks to Adam who gave one of the kids his broken drumstick, she was made up with it! Thanks again, I had a fab party and you definitely made it amazing!

Sharon Dawson, Corporate Event, Cheshire
'The Story' are fantastic - really nice lads, fantastic music and great rapport with their audience. Would definitely recommend them.

Jan Chilton, Birthday Party Event, Montgomeryshire
Booking with Warble Entertainment was very straightforward, The Story did all they promised and more, they happily adjusted their play list for us, got in touch when they said they would, arrived in plenty of time. This is what I emailed directly to them; 'We have had masses of feedback about the party and without exception everyone has raved about 'The Story', and the phrase that has been repeated over and over again is 'you were outstanding'. Thanks again for making our party so successful and getting everyone on the dance floor, young and old. What a night! Your are not only a talented band you are thoroughly professional team and we would recommend you to anyone.' If any potential customers wish to contact us about them, we would be more than happy to say lots positive things about them. Thanks again, Jan.

Nadia Boardman, Birthday Party Event, Cheshire
Hi Tracey, a big thank you to Warble for recommending The Story and promptly dealing with all my other requests. It's always a bit nerve wracking when you a book a band that you've never seen or heard before but the lads were just great. Great vocals and music, nothing too much bother, great attitude and extremely helpful. My guests have done nothing but sing their praises and I would have no hesitation in recommending them in the future. Here's wishing them every success as is justifiably deserved.

Kate Absolom & Kieran Chatterton, Private Party Event, Derbyshire
Thank you so much for making our party go with a bang. We've had so many comments from our guests on how great you were. We really appreciated your professional but relaxed manner and your flexibility with timings when things went a bit off course! Lots of luck to you, we'll certainly recommend you to anyone looking for a band in the future.

Jake and Sally Hardy, Wedding Event, Derbyshire
We were so impressed with the lads from the Story. They contacted us in advance to discuss our needs and even learnt our first dance especially, which they performed perfectly. They arrived on time and had a great set up. Played a wide range of songs, everyone danced all night. All our guests thought The Story were awesome! They are really nice guys who will make any event that extra bit special and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone else. They made an amazing wedding day beven better!

Mark Vernon & Caroline Anderson, Wedding Event, Northumberland
Brilliant band, everyone up dancing and having a great time. A polished performance of great variety. Awesome if you are wanting to party these are the guys for the job. Brill!!

Majella Kennedy, Wedding Event, Greater Manchester
The band were totally amazing and far exceeded our expectations. They contacted us prior to our wedding to make the arrangements, play lists etc and were most helpful with their advice and completely listened to our wants and needs. On the day they were punctual and worked with ease around our timing issues. When they were on stage they got all the guests up and dancing during the first song (they were so great you couldn't stay in your seat!)! They started amazingly well and just got better (we didn't think this possible). All our guests were in awe of them and the songs they played- great music, lovely lads and so accommodating to our needs. We cannot praise them enough- great voices and music. We would book them anytime and many of our friends have asked for their details as all our guests were so impressed. They made our wedding celebration a night to remember! Thank you. x

Dianne OBrien, Private Party Event, North Yorkshire
Lived up to all expectations, still talking about them now! We wish them every sucess.

Kelly, Hotel Event, Cheshire
The Story are a great band and we really enjoyed having them at The Crown. We have received very positive feedback from all our customers and we will be in touch to book them again. Well done boys great night. Thanks

Sharon Dawson, Private Party Event, Cheshire
Hi Tracey, The Story were fantastic :-) They played great music, were lovely lads and even accommodated all the kids wanting to play the drums at the end! I think we will definitely be in touch with them again.

Liz Harris, Party, Cheshire

Because The Story realise that every Wedding and event is different they are happy to build a bespoke package just for you. This has proven extremely popular with many couples and could include:

* Earlier Set-Up - to avoid disturbing the ambience if everything is taking place in the same room.

* Late Finish - whilst most venues are licensed until midnight, The Story realise that some are fine to continue the celebrations until 1am or 2am.

* First Dance - wherever possible, The Story will learn your first dance song providing enough prior notice is given and the song is within the style of the band. If this is not possible The Story would be happy to play your first dance via their PA / DJ equipment.

* DJ service - to help minimise costs The Story are able to provide a free DJ option to ensure that when they aren't performing the party will carry on! This means that requests can be taken from the classic song choices that the guys will have available.

* Additional Sets - The Story are happy to perform for 2 x 60 minutes, 2 x 45 minutes or 3 x 40 minutes.

As standard The Story perform 2 x 60 or 3 x 40 minute live sets.

Because The Story want you to have the whole night's entertainment sorted when you hire them, the band offers a FREE DJ option that runs when the band are not performing.

The DJ option is performed by a member of the group operating a laptop with the DJ mixing software and plenty of party classics on hand to keep the party jumping! The benefits of this service are that your guests are able to make requests for the DJ to play, and with the DJ being a member of the band and sharing their equipment, the space utilised at the venue is kept to a minimum... and looks very tidy.
