Band recommendations in the South

[theplanner]

We're finding it hard to get a band we like and has a bit of oomph to get the party started, wedding is in Dorset next year, any suggestions?
We want a classic wedding playlist really that covers a bit of each genre!
Thanks

We used Riptide from Alive Network - they were amazing! 2 friends have booked them for their weddings off the back of ours and I couldn’t recommend them enough

Thanks everyone I'll check them out on YouTube tomo!

Keiko Rise from Cornwall (they travel) are without doubt the best wedding band I've experienced. They have good energy, presence and create a proper buzz.

Just had a look through the suggestions, Riptide aren't my thing really as I'm not too keen on having a female vocalist I'd rather just male. Keiko rise sounded brill but looking through their set list there's not too many songs on there I'd want but I've emailed C J Edwards band for a quote they sounded brilliant thanks!

Great!

@theplanner how's your search going?

We're just waiting on the C J Edwards band to produce more of a video showreel which they said should be ready in a couple of weeks before we commit, fingers crossed as the price is good!

Fab! We've booked them for July.
