What People Say


Stephen Chewter - wedding reception - Essex - October 2009
We have to say The Bright Sparks were everything we were hoping for and more. We were so impressed that the entire set list was played to an equally high standard. Frequently you imagined you were almost listening to the original artists themselves (or versions just as good as the originals). And Owen's voice was so incredibly versatile. Most of all we and all our guests had such a fantastic evening dancing to the band and some commented that they were the best band they'd heard in years. We could not recommend them highly enough to others.


Sarah Owen - wedding reception - Gloucestershire - September 2009
The Bright Sparks were awesome, couldn't have asked for a better band. They even let my Dad sing with them! Can't thank them enough - highly recommended


Nicola Hobday - wedding reception - Kent - August 2009
Really high quality musicians and great fun on stage - they really seemed to enjoy themselves and join in with the fun. Had lots of positive comments about what good musicians they were from guests.


Elizabeth Lepp - wedding reception - Oxford - July 2009
We loved the selection of songs and were so happy to see the dance floor so full. Everyone commented on how good Bright Sparks were. We also really appreciated the band letting our usher sing our first dance.


Gabi Bartlam - daughter’s wedding reception - Hampshire - July 2009
The Bright Sparks really were just that - fab fab fab ….they were absolutely great - and as they may feed back to you, those Botswana people sure know how to party! I didn't even have time to meet or greet or say goodbye! The weather was absolutely ghastly - but hope they got fed and watered. We were all really thrilled and two of the catering staff had to be told off for dancing with glasses in their hands!!!

Bright Sparks summed up what sort of music, and what and when to play, so well. They were such lovely guys - especially Owen who had a great voice. They looked like they enjoyed themselves as much as us - which was great - definitely recommend them

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the Bright Sparks for their amazing performance at our wedding on Friday. They were absolutely fantastic - from our wonderful romantic first dance to the crazy 500 miles finale which got everyone on the dancefloor and even got some guests breakdancing! Everyone commented on how great they were and what an amazing atmosphere they created. Thanks so much again for making our wedding absolutely amazing and so memorable.

Brilliant! Have had no end of comments from colleagues expressing how good they were! Thanks so much for everyone at Function Junction and The Bright Sparks for helping everything go so well.


Cathryn Gabb Moore - wedding reception - Oxfordshire - November 2007
The Bright Sparks truly exceeded our expectations. Before our wedding they learnt our first dance song free of charge. The performed that brilliantly, and then proceeded to get almost all of our guests, young and old, onto the dance floor where they stayed for the duration! So many guests commented on how fabulous they were, and we were really thrilled with the atmosphere they created. Thank you!!

Damion Thompson - wedding reception - Surrey - September 2007
Owen and the band's commitment to ensuring our guests were on the dance floor enjoying themselves was above and beyond anything we had expected, or hoped for. The energy and enthusiasm with which the Bright Sparks played was an inspiration to everyone in the room and I hope they enjoyed performing as much as we enjoyed dancing and listening.

Robert Boyd - wedding reception - Oxfordshire - July 2007
The band were excellent and we loved the way they got the audience involved.


Josie Lo Bue - wedding reception - April 2006
Everyone commented on how fantastic the band was & we didn't have to go looking around for a band as there was so much choice in one place at Function Junction.


Charly Riddiough - wedding reception - Gloucestershire - May 2005
The Bright Sparks were absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have hoped for a better band. Aswell as the classics they played lots of up to date cool music and even performed "our song" - Aerosmith - I don't want to miss a thing at our special request which I can honestly say was one of the best parts of the day. Highly recommended! Thank you all for a fabulous stress-free service.


Cheree Tarrant - wedding reception - Bristol - May 2005
“We were extremely pleased with the performance. They were professional and the music was fantastic. We have had so many comments since the wedding on how brilliant they were.”


Sara Bagshaw - wedding reception - Cheltenham - 14 January 2005
..... The Bright Sparks came on and friends and family went wild! Even my 83 year old aunt had a ball. So many people enquired about the band that I wished I had Function Junction cards to hand out. They gave us the perfect ending to a perfect day! Can we hire them for every wedding anniversary!


Hugh Williams - wedding - Buckinghamshire - August 2004
The one common comment from all of our guests was how fantastic The Bright Sparks were. We can't recommend them highly enough. They made our evening unforgettable. Thank you!


Philip Brain - wedding - Hampshire - June 2004
The band themselves were quite excellent and I would have no trouble recommending them or using them again…. The dance floor was packed from the end of the first dance to the end of the evening and it was filled with young, old and infirm overcoming their inhibitions and arthritis to dance like maniacs.


Jon Lloyd - wedding - Hertfordshire - May 2004
We couldn't have booked a better band. They were absolutely superb, and adapted to timings as things unfolded. Please pass on our thanks to Owen and the boys. So many guests commented on the high quality they delivered.


Gudrun Varey - wedding - Devon - May 2004
Excellent in every way - couldn't have asked for more from either Function Junction or the Bright Sparks. Everyone has commented on how great they were.


Ed Frith - University Of Westminster, Student Union Ents Officer 2001-03
I was hugely impressed with the professional and extremely entertaining show they put on. The playing and singing is of the highest quality, and the band really know how to entertain. They played in an area of the venue which had been fairly empty until they took to the stage, however, by the time they finished their set the venue was packed and the crowd were shouting for more.
