Rocks The Room's Reviews

5 out of 5

I am SO thrilled I booked this band for my wedding this September. I watched a lot of videos and deliberated a lot about which band to go for. And I found these reviews super helpful in doing that, so sharing my experience for others. Katanya was an absolute dream to work with on the run-up. She made all the planning so smooth and easy for us. Everyone was raving about Rocks the Room on the night and so many people asked me how I found the band. Some guests told us they were the best band they've ever seen at a wedding. It meant so much to us to have our dance floor packed :) Our wedding was approx 100 people, of very different ages and tastes. Getting nearly everyone dancing was not an easy job! Great musicians, great song choices. But above all, these guys really brought the vibes, the joy and the audience participation. We loved it!

Absolutely Amazing!!! Stunning Performance and Fantastic Fun!!!! Rocks The Room really brought the energy and lift to our wedding dancefloor. Can't thank enough, we all had such fun! The song choices were great, the performance spectacular, but it was more the fun, energetic and involved performance that made the night. All the guests commented on how good they were and the fun they had. Can't recommend enough and learning the song as our first dance was a really nice touch as well. Make the booking!

Step n Soul performed at our London wedding and completely blew us all away! We knew from their videos they were going to be good but we could never have imagined just how good!! From the very first time we communicated right through to the wedding day Katanya was a true professional and made the whole experience fantastic. If you want a band who will interact with your guests and play songs that will keep everyone from your youngest to oldest guests on the dance floor all night long, you simply must book Step n Soul. We still can’t get over how much they made the night for us and our guests! Thank you all so so much!! Sophie & Brett x
