Dave & Rich's Reviews

5 out of 5

Dave & Rich were the perfect evening entertainment at our wedding! They did an incredible version of our favourite song for our first dance, and our guests loved the folk twist they brought to the evening. It was great for those who wanted to dance, but also for those who just wanted to listen and enjoy some great music. Thank you!

We’re so glad we had Dave and Rich performing at our wedding. They brought such a unique touch and made the day even more special. They’re both amazing people, so easy to talk to, super responsive, and really accommodating on the day. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more!

Dave and Rich were a brilliant addition to our wedding, playing their great folky versions of classic songs during the drinks reception between our ceremony and dinner. They hit just the right note of excellent quality and vibes but without being overly showy or intrusive. It was just what we wanted. They were also just a great couple of guys, super flexible with timings, and kind enough to rescue our ceremony by lending a microphone, mere minutes before it started. Highly recommend them!
