Highly recommend

We hired Over the Threshold for our wedding, and they were absolutely amazing! They had everyone up dancing and were so responsive throughout the planning process. We also loved that they learned our first-dance song—“Love Story” by Taylor Swift—which made the moment truly incredible. We couldn’t have asked for a better band and would highly recommend them!

Amazing band & unforgettable night

Over the Threshold were absolutely incredible at our wedding and completely brought the evening to life. From start to finish they had everyone on the dance floor, and the energy never dropped all night. The setlist was spot on, reading the room perfectly and playing something for everyone.

We’ve had so many guests come up to us since the wedding saying how amazing the band was and how much fun they had dancing. They genuinely helped make the night unforgettable.

On top of being fantastic musicians, they were also really easy to deal with professional, friendly, and clearly experienced in making wedding evenings run smoothly.

We can't reccomend them enough! They were one of the highlights of our entire day.

Above and beyond

The band are incredible. We cannot recommend them highly enough. Our wedding was on a Monday but the dance floor was filled throughout the band's sets as they were so good. The night flew by but we have some incredible memories dancing to their songs. Our guests have been telling us how they were blown away by Over the Threshold. 100% recommend.

Business side of things they are excellent. Everything went so smoothly and without a hitch. They were prompt, professional, and friendly. You can't go wrong if you decide to go with Over the Threshold.

Absolute no brainer

We spent a while searching for a wedding band and when we came across Over The Threshold we knew we'd found them. Their website has everything you need to know pre-booking including set lists (with a huge amount of choice), Youtube videos (we LOVED watching these!) and a detailed FAQ. Communication at booking and in the weeks leading up to the wedding was brilliant and they also worked seamlessly with our venue on the day when we had to move from an outdoor set to indoors. Tim, Gary and James raised the roof with their energy and incredible talent, and so many of our guests raved about their performance! They offered amazing value for money and went above and beyond - thank you, thank you, thank you!

Absolutely incredible band

Absolutely incredible band. Lovely group of guys,easy to communicate with in the run up and on the day they rocked the plcee down. All ours guests said they were amazing and sounded incredible. We've heard them twice know, once at a friend's wedding and at ours, they were amazing the first time and even better the second. We would very highly recommend

Brilliant live band

Over the Threshold played at our wedding in Devon at the end of August. They were simply tremendous. From the early afternoon acoustic set, to the main reception dancing sets through to the late night DJ set, the guys were fun, friendly and most importantly brilliant performers. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Over the Threshold - Amazing wedding band!

We couldn’t have asked for a better band to play at our wedding at the Padstow Harbour Hotel. From the very first song, Over the Threshold, had everyone on the dance floor, and the energy they brought to the evening was just incredible. Their set list was the perfect mix of classics and crowd-pleasers tailored to our taste in music, and they judged the mood of the room brilliantly.
They played songs that we had requested and even played our first dance (Green Day – Time of Your Life) on request and it was perfect!
So many of our guests have commented on how amazing the music was — it really made the night feel extra special. Beyond the music, they were professional, friendly, and a real pleasure to work with from start to finish.
We couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Nikki & Mark - August 2025

Over the Threshold were the best wedding band our guests had ever seen - the dance floor was never empty!

Over the Threshold were absolutely incredible at our wedding! They kept the dance floor full all night and so many of our guests said they were the best wedding band they’d ever seen. They learnt our first dance song, even accommodating cut verses to avoid us dancing on our own for too long. The song choices were fantastic, the energy was amazing, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much for making our day unforgettable, we couldn’t recommend you highly enough!

We had Over the Threshold play at our wedding. The whole booking procedure was easy and communication with the band was great throughout. We had them play in the evening and also had an acoustic set in the afternoon which was well worth it. The band were incredible and made our evening. I would highly recommend the band to anyone.

Absolutely amazing

We had the pleasure of having Over the Threshold play at our Wedding in May in a marque in our field.
They were absolutely brilliant. From the first song, to the last, they were top notch. Everyone was up dancing all night long. And they sounded exceptional. Will definitely book them again for any future events.

Thank you!!

Brilliant Wedding Band

What an amazing band they were brilliant, we hired Over the Threshold for our wedding at The Alverton Hotel in Cornwall. We loved every second of it, and all of our guests did too. The music choice and performance had all our guests up dancing from start to finish. We requested 3 songs to be played live one of which was our first dance and the guys done them perfectly and showed the bands wide range!

The whole process from booking right through to the big day was so smooth and the guys were so easy to deal with given we were organizing the wedding from Australia!

Over the Threshold are the perfect band for your big day, would highly recommend to anybody. Thank you so much for making our wedding evening so special!
