Dakota Skies

"From the first note the saxophone hit our wedding guests just stopped what they were doing and looked at the stage. Two seconds later half of them were dancing. Dakota Skies kept the energy up the whole night without it ever feeling forced. Everyone commented the next day on how good the band were. Genuinely the best money we spent on the whole day. Thank you so much."

Wedding at Rudding Park, Harrogate

"We were a bit nervous about picking the right band but from the very first call everything felt easy. They had loads of suggestions for our first dance and didn't charge us a penny extra for it. On the night they absolutely nailed it and the dance floor was rammed from that point until midnight. Brilliant from start to finish."

Wedding at Middleton Lodge, Richmond

"My dad is a massive Motown fan so we had a specific request around the soul stuff and Dakota Skies absolutely delivered. Sitting on the Dock of the Bay had the older guests in tears and then the younger crowd went wild for Uptown Funk. Getting both ends of the family up dancing is no small thing. Can't recommend enough."

Wedding at The Mansion Leeds

"Five musicians on stage looks and sounds so different from the usual three piece. The keyboard and saxophone together give it this richness that fills the room even in the quieter moments. We've been to a lot of weddings with decent bands but this felt like a step above. Our venue coordinator asked us for the band's details the next morning."

Wedding at Harewood House

"The acoustic set during the drinks reception was a real highlight. The saxophone player was incredible and the whole thing just set such a brilliant mood for the rest of the day. Then the evening started and they absolutely came alive. Our guests were on the dancefloor from the first song and didn't really stop. So glad we booked them."

Wedding at Oulton Hall

"We had a big room to fill and I had a nagging worry about whether the band could pull it off. They absolutely could. Dakota Skies had the sound completely under control from the moment they started and honestly our guests didn't sit down for the entire evening. My gran was up dancing for Uptown Funk which is something I never thought I'd see."

Private Party at Goldsborough Hall

"Every step of the booking process with Dakota Skies was smooth. They were quick to respond to questions and the band leader call in the week before was really reassuring. On the day they turned up when they said they would, set up without any fuss and absolutely smashed it. Exactly what you want from any supplier on your wedding day."

Wedding at Ripley Castle

"We had guests from their teens to their seventies and needed a band that could keep everyone happy. Dakota Skies handled it perfectly. They moved between eras and styles without it ever feeling patchy and somehow kept both ends of the age range dancing at the same time. Our oldest guest and our youngest guest were on the floor together. Couldn't ask for more."
