Well, what can I say about Gavin & Julie .
Saw them at my brothers wedding some 7 years ago and I was blown away by them, so when my son said he was getting married I thought ok , my son wasn’t at my brothers wedding as he was away with the army and Tam was at her cousins wedding in Poland.
Perfect opportunity to set the surprise up.
I set to work rang Gavin and explained how I knew of him he remembered my brother and sister in law so we had many a long chat over the phone and set the surprise up .
Well they did it again 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼,
They travelled to Essex to the beautiful Roslin Beach Hotel blended in with the other waiters and waitresses, no one knew , they were fantastic as waiters !!!!
Then after the main meal , boom the surprise , out came Gavin from the back of the room his voice deep velvety singing Your Song , then rocked Gold by Spandau Ballet as requested by me as it’s my sons favourite go to Karaoke song , the whole place was up dancing singing round the tables anywhere they could and all this before dessert!!!!!!! Hilarious!!!!
The best time and will never be forgotten by many of the guests. We had ABBA , Queen and to finish us all off , Nessun Dorma. Thank you so so much The Singing Waiter Masters the best ever ❤️ Sue mother of the groom . -

Absolutely brilliant!
When I decided to have a 90th Birthday lunch I looked around for some entertainment that would make the party go with a swing. Pendley Manor in Tring, which was the venue for the lunch, recommended Singing Waiters Master.
Wow what a recommendation. They were absolutely brilliant. Gavin was a joy to deal with from the first conversation through to the last minute of their performance.
They drew the guests into the surprise by waiting on us throughout the reception with carefully choreographed chat as waiters. They then burst into song with their fantastic voices singing all the songs of my choosing. From Elton John’s Your Song to Nessun Dorma via an Abba number that had everyone up and dancing!
I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone wanting a very special entertainment for their big occasion.

Worth every penny!
I was fortunate to have witnessed The Singing Waiters at another wedding and I knew, they had to join mine.
From the start of the process, Gavin was so passionate and fun and driven which in turn got me so excited to have them perform on our big day. In all the wedding planning chaos, talking to Gavin and planning this was a much needed respite.
I booked them as a surprise, I told nobody (apart from those who needed to know) and Gavin's team handled the rest.
On the day, they slipped in seamlessly to the days plans, completely undetected. As part of the plan, Gavin and Julie interacted with guests, served drinks, gave excellent service as waiters, to make the guests notice them.
Then it came to the big reveal during our wedding breakfast, this moment will stay with me as one of the happiest moments of my life. Watching the surprise, then joy and euphoria of our family and friends was everything. The skill of their singing is why you should book them alone, the power and beauty of their voices brought some guests to tears. It made your jaw drop and made you want to join in.
Afterwards having people come up to us and share their surprise and shock was so much fun. I will never get over it, it was amazing, 10000/10, no notes, flawless, incredible. If you're considering it, just book them.

Shani! What a lovely review! Thank you so much!
Knowing you’d seen us at another wedding and knew we had to be part of yours is such a compliment in itself. From those early conversations, it was an absolute pleasure planning everything with you and I’m so glad that those chats with us became a little calm and excitement amidst the wedding planning chaos. That’s exactly how it should feel!
Keeping the surprise completely under wraps and seeing it unfold on the day is one of the most special parts of what we do and your description of that reveal during the wedding breakfast is just magical. Hearing that it’s a moment you’ll always treasure and one of the happiest of your life, is incredibly moving for our whole team.
Thank you for your kind words about our talented team and their vocals – they are wonderful! The ability to blend in, connect with guests and then completely transform the room with the power and emotion of their voices is something they put their hearts into every single time.
Thank you for trusting us with such an important part of your day and for recommending us so wholeheartedly. Creating moments like this is why we do what we do and we’re so grateful to have been part of your story.
With our warmest thanks and best wishes

Truly Magical
Simply incredible and beyond what I ever imagined!
I got in contact with Gavin around 16 months before our wedding after seeing some clips online. I wasn’t totally sure, but a chat with him made me feel so enthusiastic and excited for what he could offer. I wanted to surprise my wife-to-be with something completely unexpected and something she wasn’t going to know about. And she certainly got that!
Roll on our wedding day in August 2025 and I waited in excitement for the big moment during the reception. Not a single person other than me knew about it, making it all the better. Before the performance, Gavin had worked the room, getting round to lots of guests, so they had some stories about this very enthusiastic waiter when they found out who he actually was! When Gavin started, the faces of everyone were such a picture. Shock, disbelief, confusion. I cannot tell you how amazing it was! From starting with “Your Song”, Gavin’s voice blew everyone away, before Cleo came on, performing the most beautiful rendition of Never Enough. The songs continued and had every guest up and dancing – Beauty and the Beast, That’s Amore and the unforgettable Abba medley, before a spine tingling version of Nessun Dorma.
I cannot tell you how amazing it all was. My bride was in tears throughout and one of her highlights of the wedding day was dancing on a chair to Dancing Queen. Every guest was blown away – we received more comments about this than anything else! Weeks and months after, people still bring up Gavin and Cleo, and they have created the fondest memories.
It also completely started the party, got everyone going and brought such a memorable lift to the day.
Gavin really was wonderful to deal with throughout, he brought the most amazing energy and fun and I could not be more delighted I booked him. He works with the venue to sort logistics and gave great recommendations for his setlist.
I would not hesitate to recommend him and the money really is worth every penny. Gavin, thank you for making our special day what it was – it couldn’t have been any more perfect.The Singing Waiter Masters's reply:
Thank you so much for such an incredible review! Reading this brought the biggest smile to our faces 😊
It’s so lovely to hear about your journey from that very first chat with us all the way through to the big reveal on your wedding day. Keeping a surprise like that under wraps for 16 months is no small feat and it sounds like it paid off in the most spectacular way! You did such an amazing job keeping us a secret!
Those moments of shock, disbelief and then pure joy are exactly what make these performances so special.
We’re thrilled that ‘Your Song’, ‘Never Enough’ and of course ‘Nessun Dorma’ created such an emotional impact and that your bride dancing on a chair to ‘Dancing Queen’ became one of the highlights of the day! What a memory to treasure! Knowing that guests are still talking about our performance months later is the ultimate compliment.
We put so much care into every detail, from working seamlessly with the venue to creating the perfect energy in the room and it means a great deal to hear how much that was appreciated.
Thank you for trusting us with such an important and personal surprise. It was an honour to be part of your wedding day and we’re so grateful to have helped create memories that will last a lifetime.
With very warmest wishes,
Gavin, Tulay and The Singing Waiter Masters x

Jack Sent on 29/12/2025Our Guests Are Still Talking About It!
The Singing Waiter Masters were an unforgettable surprise at our wedding and quite honestly one of the absolute highlights of the day. From our very first interaction, the team were fantastic, warm, personal, yet highly professional. They genuinely felt a cut above every other company we looked into.
In the lead-up to the wedding, the calls with the team were incredibly reassuring. They answered all of our questions and really put our minds at ease, especially when it came to logistics. Our venue was a little quirky, and with all of our guests staying on site we were apprehensive about how a sound check could possibly work without giving the surprise away. However, with their incredible team and sound engineer, they pulled it off flawlessly. The result was an exceptional surprise performance that our guests still talk about to this day.
They are incredibly knowledgeable about timing, song choice, and reading the room, while also thoughtfully weaving in meaningful songs. We were a little undecided about including Nessun Dorma as it’s not usually our style, but Tulay reassured us on the phone that it was a showstopper, and oh my goodness, was she right! It left guests in emotional tears, and we were completely shell-shocked by how outstanding it was.
The performance itself was phenomenal from start to finish. Jayson opened with Your Song, which holds a very special place in my heart, before Julie absolutely brought the house down with Defying Gravity. The energy was electric, it truly lit up the room. It felt like the most intimate West End show you could ever experience.
Thank you so much to each and every one of you for creating such an unforgettable, emotional, and magical moment on our special day. We will treasure it forever.

Jack & AJ! Thank you so much for such a beautiful and thoughtful review. Reading this truly means more to us than we can put into words.
From our very first conversations, it was an absolute pleasure getting to know you both and we’re so glad the planning process helped put your minds at ease — especially with such a unique venue and the added challenge of keeping the surprise completely under wraps. Knowing you felt reassured throughout is incredibly important to us, so thank you for sharing that. We love what we do and always ensure the best possible service. Our sound engineers are absolutely wonderful and can work around anything!
I’m so pleased you trusted us with Nessun Dorma — it really is one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments and hearing that it moved you and your guests so deeply is just magical. Moments like that are exactly why we do what we do.
Thank you for your kind words about our wonderfully talented team. From ‘Your Song’ to ‘Defying Gravity’, it sounds like the perfect emotional journey and I love that it felt like such an intimate West End experience! That’s the dream!
Thank you again for choosing us to be part of such a special day. Creating memories like this for couples like you is an honour and we’re so grateful to have played a small part in your story. Wishing you both a lifetime filled with love, laughter and unforgettable moments.
With very warmest wishes,
Tulay, Gavin and The Singing Waiter Masters team x

Do not hesitate to book them!
When I tell you the SWM’s have created the most precious core memories we have with our friends and family, I truly mean it. They were the first supplier we booked after our venue and we knew we wanted ‘One Day More’ from Les Mis performed at our wedding as it’s an incredibly special song to us. I searched high and low looking for a company that could offer that. Most singing waiters I came across were on the cheesy side which whilst great, were not the vibe we were wanting. When I found the SWMs and saw they were west end performers I knew they would be perfect! From the moment we booked, through to our big day, they were excellent to deal with. On the day, they had everyone fooled and played into their characters so well.
During the performances, there were tears, laughter and so much dancing & singing along from our guests. We cannot believe every single person who was able to got up and sang, danced and jumped around during From Now On, especially given probably at least half the people in the room would never have heard the song before, that proves how captivating and electric their performance was! They are memories we will cherish forever.
Our guests couldn’t stop talking about them after and since! They and we were so blown away and a few have said they wish they could get married again just to have them perform.
Gavin, Mandy, Lawrence & Natalie and team, thank you so much, we will forever be grateful for the utterly incredible performance you gave! -

Unbelievable!
OMG! As this was our first visit to the UK, we found the wedding to be the most exciting event. When the singing Waiters began their show, the guests went wild! Everyone participated in the fun. They even started dancing with the guests, everyone was waving their napkins in the air, in addition to singing the most beautiful songs! This was an experience of a lifetime!The Singing Waiter Masters's reply:

We’re so grateful to have been part of such a joyful celebration and to have helped create memories that will last forever!
