Best Singing waiter ever!!

I booked Nelson as a surprise singing waiter for my husband and my guests to enjoy after our meal and boy did they all enjoy it!! He is so professional and good fun, surprising anyone and putting on a 5 star performance! He really gets the party started and everyone having a good time! You will be surprised that the guests that you don’t think will enjoy it, end up enjoying it the most!! He is also happy to chat to you about song choices and performance etc… before the day which is very reassuring.
Thank you very much Nelson for adding alot of fun to our Wedding! It was the best day of our lives xx

Absolutely the Best

What can we say! It was the most amazing fun, our guests absolutely loved Nelson. Nelson blended in beautifully during our wedding breakfast by pouring our wine and chatting to our guests. When Nelson got up from the floor to belt out his first song the whole venue got to their feet clapping and cheering. He had is audience captured from start to finish.

'Simply the best'

Where do I even begin, from the moment I booked Nelson to the end of our wedding night he has been an absolute bundle of joy and a pleasure to work with. What makes him different from so many other singing waiters is his commitment to the act, he really had everyone fooled all day, with his knowledge of the drinks and canapés, his politeness and professionalism.

The actual performance itself was like a movie scene, he had everyone up singing and dancing and although it only lasted 30 or so minutes, it is all everyone talked about all day and set the perfect mood to get our party started in the evening. He stayed around for a little while after and mingled with guests and they relived the afternoon all over again.

If you are thinking of booking Nelson I’d tell you to do it 100000 times. It was easily the best decision we made.

Thank you so much!!

VIP Waiters for the win

We were absolutely blown away by Nelson from VIP Waiters, who performed as a singing waiter at our wedding.
Including him in our day was the best decision we made. From the moment he stepped into the role,
he seamlessly blended in with the waiting staff,
surprising all of our guests when he suddenly broke into song after some oscar-worthy acting when he fell down in front of the entire wedding breakfast!
His voice was incredible, and his performance brought a level of energy and fun to the reception that we could never have imagined.
Nelson had everyone on their feet, singing along and dancing, making the evening unforgettable.
His professionalism, talent, and ability to engage the crowd were second to none.
We can’t recommend him enough – he was a true highlight of our special day! Thank you Nelson!

Nelson the amazing singing waiter

We had the absolute pleasure of having Nelson the Singing Waiter perform at our wedding on the 11th of July at the Olde Bell, and we couldn't be more thrilled with his performance! From the moment he stepped into the room, Nelson brought an infectious energy that set the perfect tone for the entire celebration.

Nelson's comedic timing was impeccable, and his ability to blend humor with heartfelt moments truly made our wedding unforgettable. He effortlessly engaged our guests, creating an atmosphere of joy and laughter that resonated throughout the evening. His surprise performances were a delightful highlight, catching everyone off guard in the best possible way.

But it wasn't just about the laughs—Nelson's singing was absolutely phenomenal. His powerful voice and captivating stage presence left everyone in awe. Each song was performed with such passion and skill that it felt like a private concert tailored just for us.

Nelson didn't just entertain; he connected with our guests, making each person feel like a part of the show. His charm and wit were a perfect match for our celebration, and he seamlessly integrated into the event, making it all the more special.

We highly recommend Nelson the Singing Waiter to anyone looking to add a unique and memorable touch to their wedding or any special occasion. His talent, humor, and charisma truly made our wedding day extraordinary. Thank you, Nelson, for being such a fantastic part of our celebration—you totally made the wedding!

If you looking for the WOW Factor!

WOW WOW WOW!!! Hired Nelson as a surprise for my brother’s wedding.
After seeing the reaction when I turn up to a wedding reception and everyone was buzzing about it.
So grabbed the chance and had to wait to see it for my own eyes.
The way everyone gets up and dancing 💃 🕺 is great!
Would highly recommend Nelson for your big day.

What a start to the party!! 🥳

Originally I was going to book Nelson as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day, but instead I told him and we booked him together, but I wish I had kept it as a surprise!
Nelson was absolutely incredible!!

Firstly, his personality is infectious! From our first meet at a wedding fair, to our zoom and emails, you can tell from the messages he sends that he's going to provide good fun.
Nelson was easy to get in contact with, professional and helpful.

On the day he blended in seamlessly with the staff so no one suspected he was anything other than a waiter, which made the shock of the start of his act even more of a surprise.

He got EVERYONE up and dancing before the party had even got started- even the people who 'don't dance' 😂😂
We had an absolutely incredible time kicking off with waving of napkins, to a conga around the room and even some karaoke from a guest, groom and bride to Mr Brightside.
So many of our guests came and told us how much they loved it (even if how he started the set gave them an initial shock- Nelson can act!!! 🙌🏻)
and how much fun they had.
Thank you, Nelson for all the fun you brought to our wedding!! We would 100% recommend you and hope to see you at future weddings, but don't worry we will keep your secret!
