A huge thank you to James Franklyn who was fantastic at our wedding on 15 July at Auberge, Southport. James was a star performer and he made the evening so perfect. We loved every minute, he was brilliant! Everybody loved him and have been raving about him since! We will definitely be recommending James to others. Thanks again! Mr & Mrs Judge x

We would like to thank James for making our big day unforgettable. We would not hesitate to book James again…just brilliant”
So were back home...did not want to leave. Had such a good time. The wedding could not of gone any smoother...Thank you so much for the part you played in making our day so so special. I couldnt of been happier when you started to sing on the roof!! All the guests absolutely loved it and they havent stopped talking about it, especially when thats amoree came on. That is a memory i will never forget. I dont know whether you could see but we were all up on our chairs dancing!! Me and the bridesmaids had a dance on the grass in between courses as well haha.

Hi James Just wanted to say thank you for last night. You were excellent, we have had so many good comments about the whole evening. I believe one of the Weston Hall staff have booked you and I have a friend who is interested too! So thanks again for making our night special. Kind regards Sam and chris
"From the moment we listened to a couple of James's tracks we knew he was the one we wanted at our wedding and his performance still far outweighed our expectations, his performance was truly outstanding. Never once was there space on the dancefloor and he has been the hot topic of conversation for all our guests since that night. The most memorable moment was when James sang our first song which totally blew us away and some guests thought it was the original track being played !! An absolutely true professional and outstanding performer"
We just wanted to say a massive thank you for making our wedding so amazing! You were brilliant. All everyone commented on all night was how great you were and how personal you made it all. We loved our first dance song and also the other song you did at Gareth's request. Everyone has taken your number and I am sure they will all be booking you for their parties. To anyone else who might read this and is looking for a wedding singer I can only say that once they have read this they don't need to look any further. James is the BEST! Thanks again,
Hi James Just wanted to say how very much we enjoyed your entertainment on Sat 16th and the Con Club in Kent for my 60th Birthday. Everyone was commenting on how brilliant you were. I have now been asked to go on the entertainments committee ha ha. Thank you for coming all the way down south, we hope to see you again sometime.
Hi I just wanted to email you to say what a great night we had. Everyone thought you were great and sang a great mix of music. I would definitely recommend you to anyone and if we have any events in the future I will give you a call.
Good Morning, I would like to thank you for your help with choosing our entertainment this year and must say that it went off really well with our employee’s. James was excellent and a very nice man. He voice is lovely and he really knew how to work the audience, so please send him my thanks. I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. With regards Wendy
Hi James Gary and myself would like to say a 'huge' thank you for the entertainment you provided at our wedding on Saturday.

Jodie & Gary Corbett

Hi James, Just to say a big thank you for making our wedding celebrations memorable. Your performance all night was first class, and everyone enjoyed you, and i know some will book you in the future. Also thanks for making a fuss of Chloe. Best wishes Paula & Chris Hargreaves
Dear James, Thank you SO much for singing at our wedding at Bickleigh Castle. You really are the bees’ knees – so I now need to figure out a good excuse to have another party – so we can have you down again! I am sure we will meet again at one of our wedding anniversaries – but if you hit the really big-time between now and then, promise me that your prices won’t go up too much Very many thanks, and all the best for the future!
I would highly recommend James Franklyn - his singing was amazing - he set the tone of the day wonderfully. More than that he takes into account what you want. He sang during the day offering background music and his evening set catered to everyone - the dance floor was full all night long. James and the DJ were great people also who made everybody feel comfortable and added to special day. All of our guests spoke very highly of the entertainment package I would not recommend somebody lightly that has such an important role in your day but would feel extremely comfortable that you would be delighted with what he brings
Dear James, we would just like to thank you for making our night so special. You’re a fantastic singer/ entertainer and a really nice bloke with it, everyone raved about how great you were and we think your fan club has many new members! We look forward to finding a new reason to book you and will not hesitate to recommend you. Best Wishes x
We had been to a birthday party when we first heard you sing, from that moment we knew you would be perfect for our wedding.You are amazing, and you knew how to work the guests up fom the very beginning.You made it very easy for us to choose our entertainment ,as you are not just a brilliant singer and entertainer ,but a top class dj as well,so we got the whole package with you. James, your professionalism, talent catered to our needs. We are so pleased with our choice ,we would highly highly recommend you to others,and we are going to use you again for our first wedding anniversary bash. James we cannot express enough how delighted we are ,you made our wedding evening go with a bang. You where perfect. Thank you so, so much.
Thank you so much for performing at our wedding and for being the 'icing on the cake' of what had already been a truly fantastic day. Having seen you perform before the wedding, we had no doubts that we had picked the right music and singer for our wedding to suit our taste and that of so many of our friends and family members. Our expectations were really high, but not only did you surpass our expectations but our guests were absolutely bowled over to. Since the wedding, friends and family members, from teenagers through to the most mature of our guests have continued to remind us, not that a reminder was required that your performance was brilliant. The balance between the sets built up perfectly from swing and soul to listen to and warm up the dancing shoes, right through to music to dance our socks off to! If there is anything that we can do, beyond already having told lots of people how brilliant you were, we would be happy to oblige. Other people should have the benefit of memories such as ours Thank you doesn't really do it justice, but thanks again.
“We hired James for our wedding reception and he did a fantastic job. He is a consummate professional and had everyone up and dancing the whole night. All of our friends said how good the singer was. We went for the gold package and the 2 live sets were interspersed with a disco. He asked us what we wanted, played the songs we asked for, got the wedding party up and dancing and entertained us all night. I’d recommend him to anyone"
"It is difficult to choose a singer when you haven’t seen or heard them in person, but our instincts were spot on when we decided to choose James to sing at our wedding. He was always helpful in correspondence leading up to the day, and didn’t disappoint when we met him for real. Totally professional, helpful and with a brilliant voice, everyone commented on how great he was and his version of Lady Gaga’s Pokerface is now legendary! Thanks James for creating an amazing atmosphere, and for exceeding all expectations." Hope you're well, and that business is going well. Thanks again,
