The Up & Up
"Just wanted to say thank you again to the band. We had so many people say how great you were. You really made the event!"
Acacia Road
"e recently had the pleasure of booking Acacia Road for our wedding, and I can confidently say
they were the best decision we made for our special day. From the moment we contacted them,
the professionalism and enthusiasm from their team were evident. They took the time to
understand our vision and catered to our musical preferences, which made the planning
process seamless and enjoyable.
On the day of the wedding, Acacia Road truly brought their A-game. Their performance was
nothing short of spectacular. The band had an incredible energy that instantly set the mood,
getting our guests on their feet and dancing the night away. Their repertoire is diverse, covering a
wide range of genres that catered to all our guests, from classic hits to modern favourites. The
vocalists were remarkably talented, and the instrumentalists were top-notch, creating a fullbodied sound that filled the venue beautifully.
One of the highlights was their ability to read the room. They tailored their setlist based on the
energy and vibe of our guests, ensuring that the dance floor was always packed. At one point,
they even took requests, which really made our guests feel involved and added a personal touch
to the evening.
Moreover, the band’s professionalism was evident throughout the evening. They arrived early to
set up, coordinated seamlessly with our wedding coordinator, and were adaptable to any
changes we requested. Their friendly demeanour made them a joy to work with, helping to
alleviate any wedding-day stress.
In summary, Acacia Road exceeded all our expectations. They transformed our reception into an
unforgettable celebration filled with laughter and dancing. If you're looking for an amazing band
to create lasting memories at your wedding, I wholeheartedly recommend Acacia Road. They
are truly the best choice we could have made, and we are so grateful for the incredible
experience they provided!"

The Elevators
"Rating 6/6 : Brilliant Amazing band!! Definitely the best! The Hollybush, Loughton on Saturday 7 October 2023
Best band I've seen in years!! They have an eclectic mix of songs that most bands won't touch because of their musical complexity. They blew the roof off the pub, hope to see them there again and again 👍
