    "We loved the Penny Kings. They were amazing and exactly what we were looking for in a live band. They were very professional from the first contact with them. They helped create 3 great sets of music that everyone loved. We've had so many comments from our guests saying how much they loved the band and how it finished the evening so well. When they said they could learn a first dance song for us we were so excited and it sounded so beautiful. It made the moment extra special and really did..." Read More

Communication in the lead up to the event was clear and efficient, the bank were able to be flexible with their timings of the sets, and also the set list. We loved the set that the band put together, the dance floor was full all night! Our guests were very impressed with the standard of performance from The Penny Kings, in terms of instrumental skill and presentation. You can be sure that your guests will have a..." Read More

    "We booked a band for our wedding through Entertainment Nation. The online booking was easy and we received a lot of emails regarding the process and contract details. The Penny Kings were amazing! Learnt the song for our first dance; 'Can't take my eyes off of you'. All our guests said the band were brilliant and asked me where I found them. I'll be sure to pass on the info to anyone who asks! Highly recommend. If we ever have an anniversary party I won't hesitate to..."

    "We booked The Penny Kings through Entertainment Nation for our wedding, and couldn't have been happier. The process of finding and booking the band was super smooth. The website and communication with Entertainment Nation was really straight forward and provided everything we needed to know ahead of the day. The Penny Kings themselves were incredible. The vibe they bought was second to none and they had everyone right up on the dancefloor, playing banger after banger. They were flexible..." Read More

    "Our experience with entertainment nation couldn't have been better from start to finish. The team were so helpful and communication was amazing. The band themselves (The Penny Kings) were absolutely fantastic and had the dance floor packed all night. Couldn't recommend Entertainment Nation or The Penny Kings enough."
    Claire - Wedding - East Sussex
    "We had The Penny Kings play at our wedding last week - they were brilliant on every level. Our guests were up and dancing for every set and the band brought a fantastic energy to the evening.

    Poppie - Wedding - Hampshire
    "Booking through Entertainment Nation was super straightforward and easy. All our questions were quickly answered and we were reassured to know we had the security of booking through Entertainment Nation. The band (The Penny Kings) were in contact with us regularly and learnt our first face dance song for us! They updated us of all the plans along the way and always replied quickly when we messaged them. The band arrived with plenty of time to set up and all looked really smart! They were lovely..."

    "The Penny Kings played at our wedding a little under a month ago and I thought I would use some of the comments from our guests as the review: 'They had the whole place bouncing, both when they were playing and with the playlist in between sets.' 'I remember the band starting at 8pm and then next thing I know was their final song at 11.45, they were just incredible' 'My legs have never hurt as much from all the jumping and dancing' 'I can't believe how..."

    "We booked The Penny Kings for our wedding and the whole experience was great - the booking process was easy, Entertainment Nation responded to any questions swiftly and the band were fantastic! The band were very accommodating, learning not just our first dance song (and adjusting lyrics), but another one of our favourites too! The venue commented how great the band were and what a delight they were to deal with. They were also a big hit with all our guests. Would highly recommend to anyone..." Read More

    "I just wanted to email to say thank you so much to The Penny Kings for performing at our wedding a few weeks ago! They were honestly amazing, we had such a good time and everyone kept saying how great they were! We absolutely loved their rendition of our first dance song also."
    Athena & Lynford - Wedding - Hampshire
    "The Penny Kings were exceptional & really made our evening do a special time. Their communication beforehand was brilliant, answering all of our questions promptly. They were very understanding re having to move dates due to the pandemic & our first dance song was sung perfectly. Their attire was our choice so they fit into our Rustic/Country feel & they arrived on time & set up quickly & quietly. We would definitely have for another function."
    Katrina & Darren - Wedding - Devon
    "The band were fantastic and provided amazing vocals that truly made our night. Their song list was vast and catered for everyone at the wedding. Special mention to the sax player who performed a couple of solo sets for us, he really was fantastic. Have and would recommend these guys to anyone looking for a wedding band."
    Kirsty - Wedding - Dorset
    "I had The Penny Kings play at my wedding not only are they a very talented group of musicians, they are also such lovely guys ! Everyone absolutely loved them, they even got my mum up on her feet and she never dances! Would highly recommend them for a wedding or special event! Thanks so much for making our wedding even more perfect"
    Cheryl & Jamie - Wedding - Surrey
    "We would give the band a solid 5 out of 5. The Penny Kings were fantastic - really accommodating and flexible in terms of start time and the fact that we had a small venue. They kindly allowed us to use their microphone for speeches and were happy to tweak their set list at our request and learn our first song at quite short notice. They were friendly and energetic and got the dance floor moving! Our guests loved them and so did we! So professional yet easy-going and amazing music!"
    Karen - Wedding - Hertfordshire
    "Thank you so much for such an incredible evening! You managed to create an amazing atmosphere which was so special especially considering we couldn't quite picture how the day would turn out with restrictions etc. It was a honestly a brilliant evening and the perfect way to end our day! The venue also said you were amazing and such lovely guys to work with... We had so so many compliments about you all and lots of our friends have asked about how they contact you for their own weddings..." Read More

    "The Penny Kings were the highlight of our day! Besides getting married of course haha! We really had the best time, dancing with all our friends and family - they played such awesome songs and we know our evening wouldn't have been the same without them. We'd 100% recommend them to anyone! Thanks again, from Mr and Mrs Hubbleday"
    Lily and Jim - Wedding - Surrey
    "I was blown away by The Penny Kings. I had no idea how much of an impact they would make to our evening. It was such a fabulous atmosphere. I didn't even hear them setting up and it all ran so smoothly, considering we were running a little behind scheduled (sorry!). They played all the songs we requested and put together the perfect playlist for our night - everyone was dancing! We honestly couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you to Entertainment Nation and The Penny Kings..." Read More
