"Hi Colin, It's Gayle here form the wedding on Friday 26th June 09 Dundas Castle Just to say a big thank you to you and the rest of the band for making it such a good night! Everyone had such a great evening and have been raving about the band ever since.
We couldn't have had a more suited band. We've had a few people asking for your details so I have given them the Music for Scotland site address so hopefully we will get to see you at another wedding real soon.
Take care and thanks again." - Gayle

“Hi Colin, Thank-you to you and the rest of The Strides for a great performance on Friday night. The set was great, I can say that we literally danced the floor to pieces, probably made the Glasshouse staff's job a little easier at the end of the night. All really appreciated the 'one more tune' too :)” - Heidi

"......your performance exceeded all our expectations. I had hoped that the dance floor was going to be full all night - but I never expected it to be quite that full! From the moment the guys played their first note - the place erupted!!" - James Fraser

"I want to thank Music for Scotland and The Strides for an absolutely fabulous night. They were all brilliant. They had the whole wedding party up dancing till the very end and were still shouting for more. They made our wedding an absolute scream and we can't thank them enough. They were very special in the way they personalised it for us, which a lot of bands don't do."

 

"Myself and Deborah just wanted to thank yourself and the band for the fantastic performance at our wedding at Glenskirlie Castle on the 17th october 2009. We really were so impressed with how good you guys were and we honestly couldn't praise the band enough. All your covers were superb (from old to new), especially the ones of KOL. Use Somebody really was outstanding way to finish the night and our guests loved your version!!!! It was different but absolute quality. Get it on the website! Everyone at our wedding has commented on the band and people were truly impressed with the range of songs and the quality. Many of our guests have said it's the best band they've seen at a wedding and myself and Deborah agree. Thank you so much to everyone in the band for giving us the perfect night. We would highly recommend you to anyone we know who hasn't already booked you for their wedding, or for any other big event." - Mr & Mrs Don

"Sorry it’s taken a while to write but we just wanted to pass on our thanks to you and the rest of the Strides for the great job you did at our wedding on 12th December at Solsgirth. We had a fantastic day and the evening’s entertainment really was another highlight for us and our guests. Many of them have commented since on how great the music was (so we know they weren’t just being polite)! Best of luck in the future," - James & Morna

"Thank you so much for a fantastic evening. You were incredible. You really got the party started and kept it going all night long!
We've had quite a few comments from guests saying how brilliant you were" - Stephanie

"In Joanna's and my wildest dreams we could not have asked for a more entertaining and superb performance that had everyone dancing and singing until the early hours." - Darren Harvey

"… So if you're lucky enough to want The Strides for a date when they're not already booked, then congratulations - you've made an excellent choice!"

"The Strides genuinely have all the charisma, stage presence and talent of any famous act and bring an unrivalled level of excitement to any party. No matter how many bands you've seen before, you've never seen a covers band as good as The Strides!"

 

"We had The Strides playing at our wedding on 12th February 2010 at Glenskirlie Castle and just wanted to say a big thanks to you and the rest of the band members, firstly for learning our first dance song and secondly for putting on such a good show.  The dancefloor was full all night and we've had a lot people since telling us how good they thought the music was." Thanks, Ross and Lorna
