John Elvis Collins

The act

Fun, nostalgia and direct audience interaction can take over the wedding room from the moment John Elvis Collins enters in character. He has portrayed Elvis for more than two decades, singing familiar songs in suits made in the United States by Elvis's costume designer. The show can remain a solo tribute or expand into a Vegas style production with dancers and additional tribute characters. John is also a civil marriage celebrant and can arrange an Elvis themed ceremony in Australia. The moment to hear him is when wedding formalities give way to a playful rock and roll spectacle that invites everyone into the act.

Good to know

What to expect

The show starts the moment Elvis enters the building, and from there it's interactive: John works the room, and everybody ends up involved whether they planned to or not. Over 20 years of doing this means he plays the favourites and takes requests where he can. The suits are the real thing, made in the USA by the same costume designer who dressed Elvis. If you want more than one era on the bill he can bring in his Vegas dancers, or arrange other tribute acts for the night, from ABBA and The Blues Brothers to Tom Jones, Patsy, Dusty, Dolly and Buddy. Christmas shows run in July as well as December.

On the day

He can plug an iPad into your existing sound system, perform with your band, or bring his own show band of up to 10 players. He'll also bring a cordless microphone, because walking out through the audience is half the act. If you haven't got sound at the venue, he can arrange it.

Set List

A typical night opens with 2001 into That's All Right Mama and closes on Elvis Has Left The Building. In between you'll get I Got A Woman, Burning Love, Rubberneckin', The Wonder Of You, Love Me and Hound Dog. Then Suspicious Minds. She Wears My Ring, Beach Boy Blues and Rock-A-Hula Baby sit in there too, along with Slicin' Sand, C'mon Everybody, Proud Mary, Viva Las Vegas and Johnny B. Goode.

Performance options

Anything from a single spot to a full Vegas style production. He'll design the show around your event rather than hand you a fixed running order.

Insurance and paperwork

Public liability insured.
