Sanchari Roy Wedding at Shendish Manor in Hemel Hempstead, UK

What can I say about Steph’s voice… the minute we heard her voice we knew she had to sing at our wedding ceremony and the drinks. Her voice is as smooth as butter (I even said this to her haha). The band is versatile, sang popular and classic songs as chosen between us in advance, and set up seamlessly during turnarounds between events and rooms on the wedding day. Sincerely think you guys are rockstars and made my ceremony the most romantic and beautiful one I’ve attended myself! Romance exists… especially with the perfect music :) Can’t wait to have you again next weekend, this time I’ll sit and enjoy your music!

Isobel Currie wedding in London, UK

Amazing!!! We had The Groove Train for our wedding and they brought the PARTY! So helpful and accommodating in the run up to the big day, on the night they were so good that the dance floor was never empty!! Steph has the best voice ever and the saxophonist was incredible! 100% would recommend and we will be using them for years to come!!

December 2025

Jennifer Baker birthday party at Porchester Leisure Centre, London, UK

The Groove Train were amazing from my first point of contact with the band lead and manager, Stephanie, onto the evening of their performance. Their energ and music is fantastic. Their repertoire is deep and my guests loved them. So did we! If you are debating whether to book them, don't hesitate. They are outstanding. We especially loved their audience interactive version of Bus Stop. Thank you so much for giving us an evening to remember.

Band replied:

Thank you so much Jennifer! Glad you and your guests had an amazing time, so did we :)

Nicola Stringer wedding at Ashridge House in Berkhamsted, UK

The Groove Train ordinated all of the music and performed at our wedding and I honestly cannot emphasise enough how phenomenally brilliant they were! They made the day! Us and all of our guests were blown away! Thank you so much!

October 2025

Maddy Pryde wedding at Great Ote Hall in London, UK

The Groove Train were absolutely incredible at our wedding! Steph was a total dream in the run up to the wedding and answered all of our questions and we knew they were going to be brilliant. All of our guests and our caterers kept saying how amazing they were too! Kept the dancefloor full all night - everything we wanted and more!!

August 2025

Tom Moore wedding at Wethele Manor, Leamington Spa, UK

Can confirm these are the absolute best band for any event!! The Groove Train are exceptional performers, with brilliant audience interaction, energy, and a huge catalogue of songs they excel at performing. We've had so many comments from our wedding guests including 'phenomenal' and 'the best band I've seen in a long time' - and we couldn't agree more. It was epic seeing our guests having such a great time, dancing, engaging with the band. Steph was a gem to work with. Fantastic and clear communication throughout, easing the planning process. We're so glad we found The Groove Train and they helped make our wedding the best day.

May 2025

Chloe Osborne wedding at Swynford Manor in Newmarket, UK

The most incredible band! No review will do these guys justice... honestly incredible. Nothing was too much trouble, we had issues with a last minute sound limiter being installed at our venue but the guys made sure it wasn’t a problem. We loved every moment, dancing the night away with them.

May 2025

Liz Dann wedding at De Vere Latimer Estate in Chesham, UK

The Groove Train became part of our event from the first time we connected! We were so lucky to find such a cool, upbeat, talented group to form part of our company celebration. If you are looking for a band which can bring your event to the next level at an affordable rate, book The Groove Train :)

April 2025

Jamie Brown wedding at Primrose Hill Barn in Banbury, UK

Where to begin? We absolutely cannot praise this team of exceptional musicians enough. The Groove Train absolutely made our wedding evening. One of the things we said ahead of the day was that we hoped the dance floor would be full at least _most_ of the time - well, I don’t think it emptied for even a couple of minutes, so we definitely got our wish thanks to these guys! The musicianship between them all is exceptional; all of our guests told us during the night and after that the band was one of the best they’ve ever heard at a wedding. Steph and Lawrence’s vocals were insane, the sax solo was a show stopper, the drums epic - and don't get us started on the Keytar! The drummer also acted as our DJ between and after sets; we only had to give a few songs that we liked as a guide and he used this to judge the vibe we wanted perfectly. Lead singer and band manager Steph, in particular, was just flawless. So helpful, so accommodating and brilliantly communicative in the run-up to the day. She and the band went above and beyond at every turn. They even recorded a special version of our first dance song prior to the day so we could practice. Honestly, we wish we could listen to them play again and again. 10/10, you have to book The Groove Train! Whatever your event or occasion, you literally won’t find a better or more talented band.

September 2024

Beth Periera wedding at Castle Goring in Worthing, UK

Just wanted to thank Steph and the band for making our wedding party a night to remember - the band was amazing, couldn’t have asked for better! I love that they enjoyed it as much as we did! Xx
