So much fun performing at the wonderful Leez Priory in Chelmsford. We have a lovely connection with the venues and enjoy seeing the staff there again and again. So many lovely memories there.
This was a lovely wedding for Lindsay and Frank, was great fun getting the party started for them.
Lovely feedback from Lindsay below taken from Trustpilot (August 2023)
"These guys absolutely made our wedding! Everyone and I mean everyone was talking about what a fantastic reception we had.
I mean, watching the groom being lifted into the air while you’re eating your baked cheesecake isn’t your run of the mill wedding is it!
If you’re wondering if you should book these guys or not, the answer is one million percent yes, you won’t regret it.
Fantastic from start to finish x"
This 4 minute video shows how the surprise can start (we have many ways of starting the surprise and make it personal everytime which amazes the guests).
We can sing every style of music (Pop/Rock/Opera/Musical Theatre).
We love what we do and can tailor the surprise to any event (Xmas Party, Birthday celebration, Corporate event, wedding).
"As soon as we found you guys online over 12 months ago we knew how well you’d go down at our wedding last Saturday! Somehow you managed to exceed expectations! Hearing such talented singers perform and seeing people’s reactions who we were surprising was sooooo good!"
Corporate entertainment:
This was an event for Teva UK (Pharmaceutical company) in Venice Italy.
We surprised them and sang classic Musical Theatre and Opera.
We love performing at corporate functions.

We used the West End Singing Waiters for a corporate event in January 2018 and the response we received from the delegates was incredible!
The team interacted with the group and got everyone on their feet dancing and singing (all before 9pm) - Fair to say they got the party started!!
Would 100% use them again and recommend them to anyone!
Thank you again for making it a great event to remember!
Nessun Dorma - a lovely finale. Standing ovations guaranteed.

"Christmas Party Perfection!!
Neil was the most incredible addition to our Christmas party and I couldn’t have been more delighted to have booked him. He slotted in so well with the rest of the catering staff - a total under cover mission that’s SO fun to watch when you’re the person in the know - and no one expected him at all when he started performing during dessert!
The set was a triumph and by the end absolutely everyone was on their feet signing along with him!
The highlight for me as the organiser though, was how he liaised with the other suppliers to ensure the smoothest running of the evening - the link with our MC and then how he finished his set by introducing the band. It was all done off his own back and displayed so much class and professionalism, I couldn’t have been more grateful!
A fabulous success and truly brilliant evening - thanks Neil!"
The majority of us have performed in Mamma Mia and we LOVE singing the ABBA classics (please excuse the mobile footage but we love singing it so wanted to share).

"I booked the West End Singing Waiters as a surprise for my sister's wedding (Bride and Groom didn't know)...most people were trying to persuade me not to, as the Bride and Groom naturally plan everything to the the fine details themselves...but I'm SO GLAD I did, as it is just impossible not to love them. There is always a bit of downtime after speeches at weddings before the dancing begins, so this is just the best way to get the party going. As with all the other comments here, they were an immediate highlight and all the guests were raving about the,. So much fun, so talented, and also just really nice friendly people to have at the Wedding! The organisation was great too, because I didn't really need to do anything at all. They got in touch with the venue and sorted everything out so we could enjoy the day without thinking about any logistics. They even saved the day when the venue speakers didn't work properly so we just ran everything through their sound system. I must have watched the videos back about a hundred times already...it was simply the most incredible experience of an already perfect day. A million thank yous to all the team, I couldn't recommend them highly enough. THANK YOU!!

"Beyond Brilliant! I contacted the West End Waiters to entertain our guests at our corporate end of year celebration.
I wanted to move away from a typical after dinner speaker and am thrilled we did! Feedback from our guests has been fantastic.
Neil was brilliant to deal with in the run up and he was very responsive which made my job easier! Their delivery on the night was even better and exceeded all expectations! They are absolute pros at what they do and it was just incredible to watch and see our guests interact and respond in the most unexpected way!
Would absolutely recommend for any corporate event! Thank you Neil, Laura and Craig for genuinely making our event one to remember!!
Wedding fun:
Singing classics, finishing with Nessun Dorma.

The West End Singing Waiters are absolutely amazing. They totally made our Wedding. They sang beautifully and involved lots of the guests, which was fun to watch.
I would highly recommend them and they definitely were enjoyed by all the guests. A highly talented trio.

It was the most amazing and special performance I have ever been witnessed to. The West End Singing Waiters created a spectacular show for our Graduation Class of 2022 leading to the most incredible reaction from the kids and their families who all jumped up to dance and join in before they were even half way through!!
Their voices are transcendent and they managed to involve all 400 people in mere moments.
I can not thank The West End Singing Waiters enough, I enjoyed myself so much and got to live vicariously through them all for one night.
Thank you for making this an exceptional memory for us all. Alexis

The Prayer and One Day More. Both incredibly moving songs which work for any event.

After nearly 2.5years of planning we finally had the most perfect day and this would not have happened without you guys. You got all the guest up and out of their chairs and they didn’t sit back down till it was time to go home. Let’s not lie it took a few songs for the guest to realize what was going on as no1 could quiet believe what amazing actors you had been as waiters. One of the best parts of the night was when my dad asked Neil what the gravy was made of. I had a sneaky giggle to myself and now me and my dad laugh about it together. Honestly by far the best secret I have kept. If you want entertainment and a way to get the party started book book book.
"Nobody leaves baby in the corner!!"
A compilation of our lifts for the epic song "Ive had the time of my life" from Dirty Dancing. We LOVE singing and performing this song. It always goes down a storm.
Feedback below from the lovely Bride Natalie:
My parents organised this as a surprise for our wedding at the weekend. After moonlighting as very polite and attentive waiters, Neil, Phil & Helena burst into song during dinner. They are so talented and gave an absolutely outstanding performance! They arranged it absolutely perfectly, singing a range of upbeat and moving songs- when I looked around our guests were either in fits of laugher or floods of tears (myself included!) and everyone got so involved dancing and singing along, which put everyone in party mode for when dancing started. It was my favourite part of the whole wedding day, just simply wonderful and it’s all anyone has talked about since the wedding. They made our wedding so fun, special and memorable and i absolutely cannot recommend them enough!! Thanks so much guys, Natalie & Joe xx

Well how do I start to send my thanks!! I knew you would be amazing but what you did on our wedding day really was the icing on the cake. Stu is still in shock and unsure what happened, which is quite entertaining. Everyone else hasn't stopped talking about your amazing performance!! We've also had a few comments saying it's the best wedding they've ever been to!! From Uncle Alans singing to Richards interesting dancing we can't fault a single thing. What you do is truly special and heartwarming, plus you are both lovely and kind people. Keeping the secret was not easy but you made the whole process from start to finish so easy. The day itself was going to be hard with dad not there but having you sing made everyone smile which I know he would of loved. Really can't thank you enough. Now trying to work out what event we can have next to enjoy your amazing talents again!!
Kilke absolutely knocking "This is Me" from the Greatest Showman out of the park.
"I am trying to find the words to express how fantastic Kilke, Craig and David were on Friday, it went beyond anything I expected, they were marvellous.
From the very beginning when David started to gate crash the wedding, my oldest son was just about to rugby tackle him to the floor (sorry David), when Craig started to sing American Pie, my daughter looked so shocked, as did everyone else, it was priceless.
There voices are fantastic and they got everyone standing, dancing and singing, Katie and Sam cannot stop talking about it, and absolutely loved every minute"
Lovely to appear on Heart FM, and lovely feedback from Kimberley and Julian. We love what we do.
Great fun for the lovely Hannah and Matts big day. His reaction was priceless to the surprise!!!

Greatest Showman "Never Enough".
We also sang "This is Me" and "From now on".
Thank you so much Neil and team for performing at our wedding at Eastnor Castle on the 2nd January. Everyone thought you were amazing and the highlight of the celebration!! You are all so talented and we love that you had everyone up on their feet singing and dancing along!! Thanks so much Annabel and Rich xx
Neil, Matt and Amira singing for a lovely wedding in Brocket Hall in Hertfordshire.
Hannah (the bride) is a huge Lion King fan so we sang "Circle of Life" for her along with many others.
"The west end singing waiters came to my wedding Sunday . They were amazing totally overwhelmed by how brilliant they were. All my guest loved it got up danced sung it was fantastic . Highly recommend them . Thankyou for making my day complete"
Matt, Neil and Anna singing, waiting and surprising. A great day and evening with a particularly good first tap dance!!
Feedback from Facebook review:
Words can’t describe how amazing you guys were. My advice to anyone thinking of booking the singing waiters is to stop thinking about it and ‘GET THEM BOOKED’ they are amazing and you won’t regret it . They are such professionals , they blended in with the hotel staff serving drinks etc and no one suspected a thing which made the surprise so much better. All the guest are still talking about it. My favourite song was 500 miles where everyone who could got up to dance even the chef and hotel staff joined in. I can’t thank Neil and his team enough for making Terri and Daves day even more special than it already was. I have lost count of the people who came and thanked me for booking you guys and saying how fantastic you were . Any footage of you online doesn’t do justice to actually watching the surprise unfold. Absolutely priceless and a memory that will go away with every guest that was there. I think I can honestly say mission accomplished and that’s thanks to you guys. Thank you , thank you , thank you !
Feedback from Facebook Review:
Wow!! We can’t thank you enough for being the icing on the cake at our wedding!
You were amazing!!!! And kept it so we’ll under wraps that even when you served us our own tray of canapés and stood there waiting and chatting with us, we still had no idea!!!
EVERYONE commented on how fantastic you were and how it really was one of the highlights of the wedding, getting everyone up on their feet singing and dancing, absolute stars! Great personalities, fantastic voices and lovely people to make our day special and so much fun!
Thank you so much for doing all the songs we wanted, it really made it personal for us, and thank you for choosing amazing singers and performers!
I hope we attend a wedding where you guys are performing as would love to be a part of it all over again!
Thank you,
Jules & Ads xxx
Neil, Craig and Katie singing, waiting and surprising at the wedding of Nicola and Darrell in January 2015 at the wonderful Rowton Castle in Shrewsbury.
Lots of tears were shed and lots of laughter was had.
Louis (Son of Darrell) is a big fan of Les Miserables so we sang "Master of the House" for him.

So it's very early on the morning after my daughter Grace married Marius and I am reflecting on a wonderful day. I cannot begin to express how much you contributed to this. Firstly the surprise element and then of course the incredible performance. The song choices were perfect, the guests blown away and the bride and groom very delighted and happy. What a wonderful way to bring everyone together. I am hoping that there are some snippets of the performance out there that will surface so we can take a trip down memory lane. I couldn't recommend you highly enough. Have a wonderful Christmas. Wendy ( and Trevor) Wakefield.
"Nessun Dorma" - we love to finish with this and are proud with the standing ovations is creates:
This was taken from a customers phone, so you can see what its like from their point of view.

We booked the singing waiters (Neil and Matt) for my sister's wedding last weekend, and they were absolutely amazing! all the guests were so surprised! I first spotted Neil bringing out the prosecco on a tray as soon as the ceremony had ended, they really put the work in before their performance so the guests think they work there!!! No one could stop talking about them afterwards! THANK YOU Neil and Matt!!! Kim, David and Katy x
Amazing day with Andy and Sue in November 2013 - Lots of tears and laughter.We sang the Love Medley from Moulin Rouge, Cant take my eyes off you, One Day More, Nessun Dorma and especially for Sue - National Express by the Divine Comedy.

Amazing! From the moment you greeted the first guests you had everyone convinced you were all just waiting staff! All our guests have said how fantastic you all were and what a highlight your performance was! I can't thank you enough, from the first contact with Neil to the day you helped me pull off the best surprise for my husband and all our guests, even being willing to learn different songs. I wish we could do it all again! Thank you so much x
Our wedding was an amazing day Saturday and it was topped off by your amazing team.
I've watched all the videos of you guys on YouTube and knew I didn't just want any wedding singers at my wedding I wanted your team. From the moment Kilke got everyone's attention with the "who has lost their keys" I had excited butterflies in my stomach as I knew there was an amazing surprise coming. My guests had no clue and really believed she was a member of staff that was about to be sacked after she started singing to them. I loved watching everyone's faces as they realised what was going on and that I had booked you guys to sing. We had Kilke, Anna and Sam at our wedding and they were absolutely amazing. I loved that we managed to have two songs from Les Miserables as that's my favourite musical and they were sung so beautifully I was left with goosebumps. Everyone got up dancing with the other songs and people captured it on their phones so watching it back and seeing our guests loved it as much as we did was fantastic. All everyone kept talking about were how amazing our singers were and it was the best thing they had ever seen. xx
Neil, Craig and Anna singing and surprising the guests and the groom at Sam and Kevins wedding in December 2013. We sang for 25 minutes with lots of tears being shed along the way.
Feedback below.
They sang at our wedding, what can I say, there was laughter, there was tears but most of all there was singing!!! Not just by the waiters, brilliant. If you are thinking of booking some waiters for your day, do not hesitate in my opinion these are the best out there!! x

As soon as we found you guys online over 12 months ago we knew how well you’d go down at our wedding last Saturday! Somehow you managed to exceed expectations! Hearing such talented singers perform and seeing people’s reactions who we were surprising was sooooo good! Don’t tell Mrs Wildman but the getting married part of the day was a mere obstacle to the main event (you guys obvs)! My highlight was singing Maggie May with Neil, my Dad and my Uncle Ant!! Thank you so so much!
If anyone reading this is tempted to book just do it! Best decision you’ll make!
Cheers Neil and team!!!
"All I want for Xmas is you" the classic Mariah Carey song.
We love performing the xmas songs if your wedding or event is in December (or maybe even early January)!

Absolutely fantastic! I couldn't rate them high enough. They made our wedding day! Everyone loved it and it is a memory we will cherish for ever. Super talented, super professional and lovely people to work with. Thank you so much to you for what you did for us. Sadie & Mike x
