booked Ricky North for their Wedding

“Me and Philippa couldn’t have asked for more when booking Ricky for our wedding, ease of booking, fantastic performance, and just such a nice guy! From the first email conversation we had, Ricky was perfect, he was so flexible with all the elements we had regarding our wedding, with it being on a boat he was more than happy to set up early and adjust his equipment to fit our needs. As for the night itself, he interacted with our wedding party with such ease and everyone had the best time during his sets, great voice and the atmosphere was exactly what we had in mind. Already the best day of our life’s made even better by having Ricky as our entertainment! Thank you again!”
