“Without a doubt, The Relatives were one of the highlights of our wedding. They had the dance floor packed from the first dance until the very end of the night. They played a little bit of everything – rock, country, old classics and modern stuff, and even mixed things up with a few requests from the crowd. We had so many comments from our guests raving about our amazing band. We would highly recommend The Relatives to anybody looking for an incredible covers band for a function. Steve was a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy!”

“To the best wedding / covers band – EVER!!! We wanted to, no absolutely had to, write this testimonial of our own accord to say how incredibly impressed and super stoked we were when you played our wedding. From our first dealings with the band you were easy to deal with and accommodating to our requests (including learning a new Sterophonics song for us that was special to us) and creating a more rockier set list for the reception.
What you had prepared was killer and everyone was up on the dance floor all night. It wasn’t you’re typical “Wedding Set List” it was fresh, varied, modern, had the classics, and was super polished. We also booked you to play an acoustic set for us during our Saturday BBQ for 3 hours and what was planned as a simple easy BBQ turned in to another amazing day / night party. The song choices for Saturday were bang on and had people approaching us all day expressing how amazing the band was. So from Simone and I both thank you for helping us create the wedding we dreamed of, rock on guys!!

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the amazing music you played at our wedding on November 26th at Tarureka. Simon so many thanks for learning a new tune for our ceremony! I will admit I was so nervous walking down the aisle I’m not sure I heard the ceremony music much, but our guests gave it rave reviews! Thank you for keeping the dance floor full all night! We definitely could have kept going for many more hours. So many guests have said what a great band you were! It was so nice to have such a professional crew in charge of the music for our day. Thanks again for making it memorable!We would recommend you in the future to anyone needing a great band!”

“Thought I would touch base and thank you again for playing at our 40th. I have received so many compliments from our guests on how great you guys were. The songs played definitely appealed to the audience and everyone had a superb time. If we have any other function, I would definitely look to hire The Relatives again”

You really helped to make the night what it was, we could see everyone was having such a great time. We are extremely grateful, we’re honestly blown away!”

“Just wanted to write to let you know that I was frikin’ stoked with your playing on Saturday night. You made the night, in my humble opinion. Apart from being easy to work with and very co-operative, your song choice was spot on and executed perfectly. If you ever need a reference or a vote of confidence of any kind, I will be happy to gush for pages about how phenomenal you were – don’t hesitate to ask. My only regret was our silly scheduling to not have you play till the very end. As soon as you stopped it sounds like everyone left!”

“My goodness who were the heroes then? I have been organizing the Association’s conferences for 12 years now and have never had so much glowing feedback about the Gala Dinner entertainment. If you could bottle your performance it would be being enjoyed from one end of New Zealand to the other and Sally Young who was running around delivering The Relatives business cards to everyone would be a great “roadie”! Thank you and the rest of the band for a wonderfully professional and entertaining evening you pitched the music to suit the very appreciative crowd and as one delegate mentioned “I heard five of my all-time favorites in one night!” There will be no hesitation from anyone present in recommending The Relatives for a great evening’s entertainment. Thank you all very much.”

“The Relatives have a very professional set up and sound, and their repertoire of songs keeps the audience dancing for hours! Probably one of the best cover bands in the Wellington area. I highly recommend them for large corporate functions, weddings and parties.”
