Could not fault the quality of this band
Garith T booked The Parkas for their Wedding at The Crown & Cushion, Blackwater - Shepherd Neame in Surrey
“Could not fault the quality of this band. Not just a good wedding band but a proper good live band full stop. Pretty much every guest has commented since the wedding how good the band were!”
They were absolutely brilliant!
Louise H booked The Parkas for their Wedding at The Artists Beach House in Kent
“We've had loads of texts & emails from our guests telling us how much they enjoyed the band. They were absolutely brilliant!”
I couldn't recommend The Parkas more highly.
Anne-Lise G booked The Parkas for their Wedding at Ashfield Park in Kent
“I couldn't recommend The Parkas more highly - both in terms of Craig's professionalism before and during the event and in the way they lit up the dance floor. They also learnt a song so that I could come on stage and play lead ukulele and vocals to serenade my bride and actually made me sound pretty good and for that I'll be eternally gratefully. Their flexibility on the night was also superb. Absolutely ten out of ten across the board and I'd be very happy to recommend them to anyone.”
I just wanted to say thank you very much for the great job you and the band did ...
Lisa booked The Parkas for their event
“I just wanted to say thank you very much for the great job you and the band did last weekend. Everything went really smoothly and the music was great - I’ve had lots of compliments from guests about the band. Thanks again”
Malcolm booked The Parkas for their event
“Just back form our few days away after the wedding. I just wanted to say thank you so much for your performance on Friday night. You were fantastic and we had so much feedback from our guests saying the same. As I said in slightly drunken way at the end of your set, it is always a risk when you have seen a band perform live before but we were far from disappointed. A really great act and you made our night. Thank you.”
