I can’t overstate how amazing Stefano and the Good Time Soul Foundation were at our wedding. We had a duo (guitar and voice) for the ceremony, jazz music during the aperitivo and disco after dinner for dancing.
The ceremony was beautiful – the band kindly learned a host of songs specifically for the ceremony, which made the entire thing feel super special and initmate and personal. During the aperitivo they played lovely jazz music, and after dinner, they got all of the guests dancing. One of my most memorable memories from the wedding is seeing the grandmothers (in their 80’s and 90’s) dancing alongside my friends alongside our youngest guests aged 11, 4 and 2.
Throughout the process, Stefano was a fantastic communicator and made planning everything incredibly easy. The band travelled across Italy to my hometown of Bolzano and despite national train strikes, never gave me an ounce of worry that anything would go wrong.
I can’t speak highly enough of this band and trust me, hiring them will be one of the best choices you make for your wedding!
It’s hard to put into words how exceptional Stefano and his band were. From start to finish we were blown away by the professionalism and the skill of all the musicians as well as being so kind and friendly. Stefano kept in good communication with us throughout the whole process and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. The set list was perfect for our event which was a wedding, all our guests were up on the dance floor and said how wonderful the music was. Stefano and his band will give you a really great time! We highly highly recommend, thank you so much again. Lydia and Sam

One of the best decisions I made was when I found this band and asked them to please perform! They were EXCEPTIONAL. Communicating with Stefano before the wedding- he was amazing, helping me with the SIAE, their response times were so quick, and so kind – they are also so so talented and great at what they do! Everyone was dancing and singing these guys are amazing 🤩
These guys gave us the BEST evening at our wedding, everyone loved them. People still comment to us a year later (sorry for the late review!!) how much fun they had because of the band and how they’d never danced for so long at a wedding. They were even kind enough to let our friend join them on bass for a few songs which was a lovely memory. Grazie per tutti guys, we loved it ❤️
Absolutely fantastic from the very first communication to the wedding day! Stefano and his band performed some beautiful songs during our cocktail hour, helping create fun and warm atmosphere filled with Motown and soul! Stefano was so kind to let us use his mic and speaker during the ceremony and even set a mic up and guitar for my friends to sing a song during the ceremony. They gave us a 100% and I really couldn’t recommend them more. Our favourite vendors we worked with for sure ❤️❤️❤️
Espetáculo! A banda é espetacular, boa musica, bons músicos. Pedimos uma canção especial para os festejados e a banda prontamente deu a disponibilidade para tocar a musica que cantariamos. Obrigado
Recomendo vivamente!
Spectacular! The band is spectacular, good music, good musicians. We requested a special song for the guests of honor and the band promptly made themselves available to play the music we would sing. Thank you. I highly recommend them!
Stefano and the band was really amazing! All of our guests enjoyed the music everyone was dancing and they really accommodated with all the requests we had! The whole band is just so good, very talented musicians. They played songs even for our ceremony and it was just a dream come true. We can’t thank them enough to help make our day perfect. I would definitely recommend them!
I can’t thank Stefano, Kaya and the whole of Good Time Soul Foundation enough.
They are such a talented band.
Stefano was so great to communicate with, nothing was too much trouble. We chose some very special songs for the ceremony which the band played perfectly!!!
Stefano even incorporated the sound of the steel drum into my aisle song, which was a dream come true.
Kaya has such a beautiful voice and every song blew me away.
All our guests were so complimentary and danced the whole set.
I am so grateful I found this band for our special day, it was a moment I will truly never forget!
Thank you Good Time Soul Foundation.
Love Sarah and Jim

Stefano and the entire band were a dream come true for our July wedding in Umbria ! Their collection of songs set the perfect tone for the night and our family and friends loved every minute of their set.
They were such an incredible addition to the evening that made the memory so special. It was wonderful to meet them and we would share their info with any friend of ours that is having an event in the same area in the future.

Stefano and his band were absolutely incredible. They played for a wedding I have organised and I can not praise but their professionalism and enthusiasm. The music was perfect, just like my customers asked. They went over and beyond to make sure all the guests would enjoy the party, accommodating extra requests out of the playlist.
Many thanks for all your effort. I will definitely use them again.!
Thanks so much to Stefano and the band for playing our wedding. They were amazing!
They learned our first song, New Shoes by Paulo Nutini, perfectly and had all of our guests dancing the night away. The provided a PA system for our ceremony and speeches that worked flawlessly. Stefano was responsible and flexible when making arrangements. I would highly recommend for your wedding.
What an amazing evening, all thanks to Stefano and the Good Time Soul Foundation! They made our special day even more unforgettable. So professional, attentive, and always right on point. We’re truly grateful.

Serata spettacolare grazie a Stefano e ai Good Time Soul Foundation. Hanno reso la nostra giornata ancora più speciale! Disponibili, professionali e sempre sul pezzo. Un grazie davvero di cuore. Daniele e Alessandra
We had the absolute pleasure of having Good Time Soul Foundation play at our wedding in Tuscany near Siena, and we couldn’t have been happier with how they delivered an amazing day for us. From start to finish, they were exceptional — professional, enthusiastic, and incredibly talented.
The band played two fantastic sets: the first during the aperitif, which created the perfect laid-back yet upbeat atmosphere as our guests mingled and enjoyed the setting. Later in the evening, they absolutely lit up the dancefloor with a high-energy, disco-fuelled set that had everyone dancing all night long!
As a previous reviewer has said, we can’t emphasise enough how amazing they sounded live with an incredible vocalist!
A huge thank you also goes to Stefano, who was incredibly supportive in the lead-up to the wedding. He was always responsive, helpful, and accommodating, even going out of his way to source a disco ball at the last minute.
What really stood out was the personal touch the band brought to our day. They went above and beyond to learn five of our fave songs (all very different and slightly off genre!), especially a truly unforgettable rendition of LCD Soundsystem’s “All My Friends”. It was a moment we’ll never forget.
On top of all that, Good Time Soul Foundation offered amazing value for money. For the level of talent, professionalism, and effort they brought, it far exceeded our expectations!
If you’re planning a wedding in Italy and want a band that brings not only incredible music but also heart, soul, and unforgettable energy, we can’t recommend Good Time Soul Foundation enough. They helped make our day so special, and we’re still hearing from guests about how amazing the band was!
Thanks so much from us both and sorry this review was so late!

The BEST! Videos online do not do this band justice, they sound incredible live! Stefano and the band are incredibly professional, easy to deal with and lovely people! We had a great choice of songs, plus they learned a few of our especially chosen songs too! Stefano even called the venue to discuss the best position to play from at different parts of the day; he did this without us asking him to and we appreciated it so much. This band are incredible, great value and made our wedding so special!
We chose them for the most important day of our lives, and we couldn’t have made a better decision. The band offers a wide selection of songs, all performed with passion and skill. They welcomed our special requests and were also happy to accommodate song requests from our guests during the party.
(Italian)
Ci siamo affidati a loro per il nostro giorno più importante e non avremmo potuto fare scelta migliore. La band offre una vasta selezione di brani eseguiti con passione e maestria. Hanno accolto le nostre richieste di brani extra e, inoltre, si sono dimostrati disponibili anche alle richieste degli invitati durante la festa.

We were absolutely thrilled with this band for our wedding! From start to finish, they were the perfect example of professionalism—so easy to plan with, learned our favorite songs, were on time which is very important for a wedding, and incredibly helpful with everything. They even gifted us a speaker cord at the end of the evening for free so we could continue to play music when they left (ours was missing)!
They brought such amazing energy to our wedding day, creating the perfect vibe for each part of the celebration.
For the ceremony, their music was stunningly beautiful and set the most romantic tone. During the mingling, they created such happy, relaxed vibes that everyone felt at ease. And then the evening dance party was nothing short of incredible! They had all of our guests on their feet, and their interaction with everyone made the night even more fun and memorable.
We honestly could not have asked for a better band! They exceeded all of our expectations and helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect!
