He got the party started and kept the mood going all evening not easy when your audience ranges from 5 years old to eighty. Would highly recommend him.

"Amazing, Alex and Lydia made the evening into a lovely atmosphere, all my friends family and husband had mentioned how really good they both are and they all asked how I found them both, Thank you poptop for helping me find them both. They are both also are a lovely couple together and how they had fun singing together with humour, Very well done Xx"

Christopher Watson22 Jun 2018

Hot Shoes really made the night! We were having a 1920/30s-themed wedding and Hot Shoes provided us with the icing on the cake. They also helped out when the best man screwed up the playlist for the slot after the band finished playing, so that was very much appreciated too! You guys are very talented and great people so thanks for everything. Chris & Becky.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
