The best wedding band!

Honestly the best wedding band you could book!
From start to finish the communication and organisation from Pete at Apollo soul was amazing, they made everything so easy.
The band set list, DJ set list and Sax set list were just flawless, not a single dud song all night!
We had so many compliments from our guests saying they were the best band they'd ever seen at a wedding. The dance floor was packed all night!
Thank you again for an incredible wedding evening, we want to do it all again!

The BEST wedding band

We always knew we wanted live music at our wedding and spent hours scrolling through bands to find the perfect one. As soon as we found Apollo Soul, the search was over! We had the 6 piece band for our wedding, every musician and singer was so talented and the sax DJ set at the end of the night went down amazingly! The dance floor was constantly occupied and it just felt so special for us. Thank you Apollo Soul!

The best wedding band

Apollo Soul are absolutely phenomenal! They made our evening celebrations so amazing and the dance floor was never empty. They know how to put on a party and every track they performed was flawless. I could not recommend them more strongly. From the the first dance to the sax solo everything was carried out to the highest standard. Our guests still can't stop talking about how amazing they were and that they are the best band they've ever seen!

We just wanted to say again a massive thank you for Friday. The band absolutely smashed it & everyone including ourselves loved you all.

An amazing band!

Apollo Soul were absolutely amazing at our wedding this February! We can't thank the team enough for creating the most perfect atmosphere all night, and for playing our first dance song so beautifully - it was perfect.

Amazing!! Best band

From start to end Apollo Soul were flexible, professional and all round excellent energy. Pete made the planning process super easy, he was incredibly responsive beforehand and helped us curate exactly the show we wanted for our wedding. On the night the performance was incredible, the DJ sax went down so well with guests and the whole lighting and sound setup was perfect. The band know how to put on an amazing performance and we loved them interacting with the crowd. We couldn’t have wished for a better wedding day and Apollo played a huge part in that! Also very reasonably priced vs competitors - would recommend 100%

The most incredible bunch of people

We met Pete from Apollo and Kate at a spring wedding inspo day at our venue back in 2023, and what was instantly obvious was not only the incredible talents, but also what warm, wonderful and welcoming people they are. So we booked, both the Apollo soul band for our evening party, and Kate for our ceremony and drinks reception. We were so looking forward to seeing them again.

Kate came and sang our chosen songs, and people were so blown away by her incredible talents, my guests thought it was a track playing through speakers. The emotion it created was second to none, I’m not particularly a crier but I was sobbing as I walked down the aisle. My new husband has musicians in his family who are singers for weddings and also in bands, and they were speechless and blown away. I also have a bridesmaid getting married and she is absolutely going to enquire about having Kate perform.

Then the evening. We booked the Apollo soul band, which featured a roaming saxophone. The absolute incredible talents of the whole band were unmatched, and every single one of my guests said they were blown away by the band. They performed our first dance song and it was absolutely perfect, then we got the party started properly. The bands sets were incredible, and in between there was a dj also included, to which we had been able to request songs.

We had been liaising with Pete leading up to the wedding, and he was so accommodating with requests we had. He sent a set list to us and allowed us to swap some songs, and even to the request for a song that wasn’t on the list of ones to swap (meaning we also got to hear his incredible guitar solos).

Honestly these guys are 20/10, as the bride I didn’t get off the dance floor for longer than 10mins, and we feel sad that our interactions with these guys have come to an end. A really special band, and singer and we could not be happier or more honoured that they played at our incredible wedding. Thank you to everyone involved, sincerely, from the bottom of our hearts, the Flaherty’s xXx

We couldn’t recommend Apollo Soul enough!!

We had Apollo Soul booked for our wedding on 3rd April 2024 at Foxtail Barns. They were incredible from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble in addition to sorting a father/daughter dance and allowing us to change the song list.
We had an amazing time and they bought a great vibe to the evening!
Highly recommend
Love Mr and Mrs Orme xx

A Great Experience All Round

Apollo Soul were incredibly professional and helpful throughout the booking process—nothing was too much trouble. Their superb communication reassured us every step of the way, knowing the entertainment was in great hands. The sound and performance quality were outstanding; they truly go above and beyond. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows! Their energy was at 100% all night, and the dance floor was packed from start to finish. Thank you Apollo Soul.

Simple the best!

There aren’t enough words to say how amazing Apollo Soul are! We had them at our wedding after I came across them on Instagram. I instantly fell in love with their music and knew we needed them to make our day even more special. They definitely didn’t disappoint. From start to finish they had everyone on the dance floor, the most talented individuals and so lovely too.
Everyone still comments on how amazing they were and we’ve been asked for their details from friends and family members for upcoming functions.
Amazing band - The best of the best!

Apollo Soul made our wedding!

Apollo Soul absolutely made our wedding at the beautiful Chateau Robernier in Provence. They built the day up from the cocktails to the meal and then the crescendo of the full dancing set. They were amazing throughout.
All the guests commented how wonderful they were, and probably the biggest compliment came from the owner of the chateau who said that they were genuinely the best band that she had seen there, as well as the nicest most friendly band she had met.
Thank you so much!

Incredible evening and jam packed dancefloor

We had such an incredible evening at our wedding thanks to Apollo Soul! The dancefloor was packed and they created such a fun environment, not to mention they are all insanely talented musicians and singers. Definitely add on the saxophone set, our guests loved it! The Apollo team made the booking & admin process very easy too.
