“Just incredible!!! Don't have the words to thank Sarah and the band enough! We first came across Nanna Radleys at a rum festival, and it was the most fun night. We then knew we NEEDED them to play at our wedding! Music was such an important part of our wedding, and these guys literally blew us away. They were fantastic in the lead up with communication, seamlessly moved our booking due to a Covid postponement, and then totally SMASHED it on the night. The dance floor was constantly full, and some of our guests said the vocals were so amazing at some points they didn't realise it was live! A huge thank you to Sarah for also meticulously sticking to my set list and requests - we know what we like, and it meant so much that they worked so hard with us to keep the flow. Just honestly the most wonderful wedding band we could have ever asked for. BOOK THEM!!! Thank you so much, Sophie and Tom x”
