Arena Collective

We cannot thank The Soultastics enough for performing at our wedding last week. You picked up on the tone of the event perfectly. Your swing and post-modern renditions were inspired and you had all ages on the dance floor; we really felt it was the music that brought everyone together last week. Phil dancing with his 95 year old grandmother to ͚Fly Me to The Moon͛ was a particularly special moment. Absolutely everything we had wished for! The music in the afternoon was the BEST surprise!! I loved it and had no idea until I walked into the garden party that Phil had arranged it. We had been listening to a Parisian Cafe-style playlist for a while with the intention of having that as background music in the afternoon so I was over the moon when I heard a few numbers from that playlist being performed live. They were brilliant and created a really relaxed, cool vibe for the Drinks Reception. I know Pangdean have mentioned to my parents how much they loved the trio too. Thank you so much for suggesting them and for helping Phil to organise such a great surprise; he said you were so quick and happy to help with something so last minute and it made all the difference! Having live musicians at what was already a musical feast of a day, really made it for us! Please pass on our huge thanks to them. Thank you too for performing Let There Be Love for our first dance. Again, to have it performed live by such talented performers meant so much more than dancing to the recording. We spoke to many guests during the evening who thought you were brilliant and some who were just happy watching you all make music together!! You were the perfect entertainment for the evening, thank you! We͛re very happy listening to your music on Spotify but I hope we get the opportunity to hear the band play live again one day.

The Soultastics are just amazing. All night our guests were telling us how great they thought the band were and everyone was dancing and having a fantastic time. They were an absolute pleasure to deal with in the lead up to our day, and helped with lots of requests we had to make our day more special, including a flawless performance for our first dance. Their performance was full of energy and fun, and they put together two great sets of music for us. Cannot recommend highly enough!

We literally had the best day. Peaches and cream were absolutely amazing! So helpful, professional and polite on arrival. They then put on the most amazing performance resulting in our dance floor being constantly full. The mixture of songs worked so well and everyone had the best time thanks to them. I would totally recommend them to everyone and am hoping to use them in the future. My birthday is coming up soon and I would love to have them for that. They really were amazing.

We had a fantastic experience working with Arena Collective to organise the band for our wedding. For us, the music was one of the most important things to get right. Arena Collective were fantastic from the get go. Arranging a band went from a seemingly impossible task to stress-free as soon as we engaged with them. We had a few specific requirements - such as needing a recording of the first dance in advance to practice a choreographed routine to, and a band that could do justice to all our favourite songs (mainly Prince's back catalogue). We felt that Arena Collective really listened to us and took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. We were introduced to Saturday Night Diva, and were blown away by how talented they were. To inspire us, they provided us with an extensive listing of great songs which we could pick from, and were happy to take requests as well. Everything went perfectly on the day- they were entirely professional, arriving in good time to set up for a tightly organised schedule. The performance was outstanding- they were lively and entertaining, and all exceptionally talented musicians. They absolutely nailed every song, and our guests loved them. Easily the best band I have ever seen and heard at a wedding! Overall, I would recommend Arena Collective without any hesitation. They provide a top class service connecting you to amazingly talented musicians that will suit your needs perfectly

We just wanted to say thank you so much Dan for taking the photos of our wedding. You did an incredible job!!! You really captured our special day beautifully! The photos are just amazing and they bring us so much joy. You are not only a very talented guy but also a lovely guy. We are so pleased that you were recommended to us to be our wedding photographer. We will cherish our photos forever. Thank you x

Our guests loved them. Easily the best band I have ever seen and heard at a wedding!
