Riptide making the evening come alive
Sarah W booked Riptide for their wedding in East Sussex • September 2025
“Riptide were brilliant and the talking point of our wedding. They got everyone up dancing and music selection was spot on. Couldn’t be happier with their performance and met all our expectations”
Anthea C booked Riptide for their wedding in Surrey • September 2025
“The best live music performance you’ll ever experience. The whole band are amazing and play a wide genre of music - smashing every single song! They were super easy to communicate with and received the most amazing comments from all our wedding guests as well as the venue staff. We can’t recommend them highly enough and are sure to deliver an unforgettable night of music and dancing for any event - 10*!”
Jonny W booked Riptide for their wedding in Kent • August 2025
“We had Riptide play at our wedding at Preston Court and they were absolutely phenomenal. From start to finish, they brought such incredible energy to the night — the dance floor was full, the music was spot-on, and every single guest was raving about them. What really stood out was how genuine the guys are. They didn’t just perform and disappear; they got involved with our guests, chatted with people between sets, and even joined in with the other entertainment. It felt like they were part of the celebration, not just hired musicians. They read the room perfectly, played exactly what kept the vibe going, and made the whole evening unforgettable. We’re already looking forward to booking them again for future events — they’re just brilliant at what they do and an absolute pleasure to have around.”
