Testimonials
“I just wanted to say huge thank you, what lovely girls and what fantastic singing, very professional and I thoroughly enjoyed your performance. If anyone is thinking of booking the Checkout Girls I can’t recommend them highly enough!”
Wendy East – Private party client
“Wow!! These girls were amazing! Couldn’t recommend them enough! We only booked the girls 3 weeks before our wedding and they did everything they could to make our day special! You will not be disappointed if you booked these gals!”
Hannah Long – Wedding client
“Thank you once again for a truly memorable afternoon of entertainment at our annual buffet luncheon. With love and our very best wishes.”
Ken Turner – Bristol & District Normandy Veterans Association
“The Checkout Girls were fantastic! They performed for us on the back of a vintage lorry outside the station and were great at engaging with the public – they even stepped down to dance with them! All the music was very well received by all ages, from the authentic 1940s songs to the retro take of some more up to date tunes. It was evident on social media that people had travelled large distances just to see them. I hope they are still available so I can book them for next year!”
Alasdair Page – South Devon Railway Trust
“On behalf of Surbiton RBL, the committee and the members. We would like to thank you for the show you put on, on May 8th. We have had many letters and endorsements since telling us that it was the best night at the club for many years. We also got a letter from the Mayor thanking us for a great night. Although the committee took all the plaudits on board the general consensus was how good you were. In fact, fantastic, superb and fabulous were just a few of the words used to describe you. You turned a great night into a spectacular one!
