A Show-Stopping Moment We’ll Never Forget

We had Nelson from VIP Waiters at our wedding, and he was honestly one of the biggest highlights of the whole day! I booked him as a surprise for my Husband, and it could not have been more perfect. Nelson blended in flawlessly with the rest of the waiting staff — no one had the slightest idea — and when it was finally his moment to shine, he absolutely stole the show.

He had every guest up dancing, singing, clapping, and loving every second. The energy in the room was unbelievable. So many of our guests have told us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and even over a month later, people are still talking about how incredible Nelson was!

If you’re thinking of booking a singing waiter, do it — and book Nelson. He made our day unforgettable, and we’re so grateful for the amazing performance and atmosphere he created. Truly exceptional from start to finish!

Thank you sooo much Darren for the kind words,
Love the Funny bit lol I do try, especially after having such a connection with your guests over the canapés. Those Lamb kofters went down extremely well. I do LOVE the banter.
I have to say though, you and Kate were such a lovely couple full of fun and energy. I loved how much you were looking forward to my performance, and how fully engaged your family and friends were because of how much fun you guys were having, It made it even more enjoyable.
So a huge thank you 🙏
Also Katie, the amazing Ravenswood coordinator even commented how much she loved you. So hats off to you both. Thanks again for making me part of such great memories. sooo touched by the Legend tag. thanks again.
Best wishes Nelson VIP x

What an amazing guy Nelson is and what a performer!!!

We held a charity Glitter Ball for Breast Cancer Now and Nelson came onboard to support.

None of our guests were aware that we had a singing waiter and Nelson blended in with the staff from the very beginning - serving and waiting on people like he was part of the work force.

When it came to his act, it was so convincing that one of our guests who is a First Responder came rushing over to help!

He got all the crowd (210 people!) up and dancing from the start of his act to the end!!

IWe were blown away with his performance and would absolutely recommend people to book him if you want a first class performance and added surprise for your guests!!

surpise addition to the team @Alfriston Gardens

I manage Alfriston Gardens and the Bride and Groom chose Nelson as their surprise entertainment. It was thrilling from start to finish really elevated the post Wedding Breakfast slump - all the guests joined in. When your guests have a great time they remember your day and the venue you chose. Nelson is a consumate professional - a ball of energy and a really super positive addition to anyones celebration. We loved having him here and look forward to next time - 5 stars Nelson thank you!

The best singing waiter ever! FACT!!!

Nelson was absolutely incredible, right from our first meeting and throughout our booking and wedding. Very attentive to detail and has the most amazing personality. Got all our family and friends worried about him falling over, then blasted out an iconic Queen song. We cannot thank him enough for making the most hilariously different memories, everyone was talking about him for ages after and how amazing it was to get us all up and dancing. 100% recommend having him at your wedding. Its definitely worth the memories. Thank you so much Nelson at VIP Waiters

Get the carnage going…

I hired Nelson from VIP Waiters and booked his Masters & Mayhem package — and it was honestly the best decision I could have made! It was a surprise for my husband and only my sister, my nan and I knew about it! Watching everyone’s faces when Nelson started was priceless!

His hosting was second to none — he had everyone singing, dancing, and completely caught up in the fun. From napkins spinning in the air to guests belting out songs and dancing harder than Beyoncé herself, the atmosphere was incredible. The conga line even made its way outside the marquee!

Nelson brought so much energy, laughter, and pure joy to the day. If you’re looking for a host who can take your event from calm to absolute (and unforgettable) mayhem, Nelson is your guy. Truly fantastic!

Absoulte carnage, couldn’t have hoped for it to have gone any better! Nelson is truly impeccable!

I loved the fact that Nelson was at the wedding from the beginning, in character acting as a waiter , getting familiar with the guests, everyone is still talking about “ the singing waiter” and how amazing he was from start to finish. He made our day extra extra perfect, it was a suprise for my new husband and he LOVED it. I wasn’t about the sit down meal as I thought it would be a bit of a mood killer, with Nelson it was the complete opposite and got the party started when the guests finished their deserts, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED , worth every penny!!! Thank you Nelson !!!

Thank you

Nobody knew apart from the three of us (bride and parents)

Our guess loved the experience.

It really kick started a night of celebration.

The dance floor was packed overflowing on to the carpet either side all night long.

People are still talking about our daughters wedding.

One word describes this wedding twist.

AMAZING

What an experience!

What an experience! Our guests were amazed by what was happening and they fully enjoyed the surprise!
Our singing waiter David lept into action and got the guests going. They were singing along to every number and he got the crowd going. Recommend this to any wedding.

Nelson is incredible

Wow Nelson took our wedding breakfast to the next level! One of my guest said ‘you know it’s going to be a fantastic wedding, when 40 mins after saying “I Do” 100 guests are up doing the conga’.
Nelson made the whole experience seamless, fun and he has a magic way of blending in.
Love everything that he brings to his class act. Just sensational and we haven’t stopped hearing people mentioning him when the wedding gets brought up. Nelson is just an absolute ball of energy!

Nelson was absolutely fantastic for our wedding, we had to do a last minute change and have him before the wedding breakfast and we honestly couldn’t have planned it any better! We also had Dave on the sax joining him who played us into our wedding breakfast and they both really got the party vibes through the roof. Everyone has told us it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been too and Nelson was a huge part in that! He even had the Mother-in-law crowd surfing! Can’t thank Nelson and Dave enough for what truly was a fantastic time, can’t wait to see the video and photos!

YO YO YO Nelson!!

YO YO YO Nelson!!

What a guy, absolutely brilliant, the most realistic fall we've seen even myself and the bride thought he was hurt (and we knew it was coming! 🤣) The concerned looks on our guests faces trying to assist, and when Nelson started singing, absolute comedy gold. The kind of person you can connect with from the get go, you deserve to be at everyones wedding.

All the best,
Shaun + Sarah

Nelson at VIP Waiters!

We booked Nelson for our wedding to surprise our guests and bring the party – and he absolutely exceeded all expectations! Nelson was fantastic from start to finish. He had everyone up dancing and singing, and his performance was incredible. Our guests are still talking about it to this day! The whole booking process was simple and stress-free, and we loved being able to choose the songs. Thank you so much, Nelson, for making our day unforgettable!

Singing and dancing with a little bit of crazy

As the Bride I booked this as a surprise and didn’t tell anyone except the venue and the photographers.
Honestly, it blew everyone away people were talking about it all night!
It was such a memorable 45 minutes.
From my very first enquiry to our final goodbye on the night, you were absolutely epic.
Thank you so much it’s clear you love what you do, and that passion shines through in your show.

Nelson!
What a guy! Such a funny and talented person!
Booked him last minute and did not disappoint! The way he interacts with the wedding guests before they even know who he really is!
(Still have people talking about it) And the initial fall is amazing!.. to the point someone NEARLY called an ambulance which was hilarious 😂! THEN breaks into song! And has everyone involved! Thank you so much for a fabulous memory! We enjoyed every minute!
