Band for Weddings Auckland
Wolves and Ravens proved to be a perfect choice for a wedding band. When the formalities were done the band took over and played their expertly performed mix of well loved tracks that had all three generations dancing. Guests including experienced party goers and musicians enjoyed their performance immensely. A fabulous way to complete a beautiful wedding. Thanks heaps Alice

“We are so sorry for not getting in contact with you sooner and expressing how tremendously grateful we are that you guys played at our wedding.
As you know we really wanted a heaving dancefloor to cap the night off and you guys absolutely crushed it!! All our guests couldn’t stop raving about you. The vibe and energy you guys brought was exactly what we envisioned and we will forever cherish those memories on the dance floor.
I think I was air trumpeting “Call Me Al” for at least 2 weeks whenever I thought of that night – so much god damn fun!!! “

It just occurred to me that I never emailed you to say thanks! You guys were awesome and our guests loved you. Thank you so much, you were everything we wanted and more, you were super easy to work with and really helped us out with figuring out how the night was going to go.
Sorry I should have emailed you much earlier, it’s been a bit of a whirlwind post wedding.
Thanks again,“

“Wolves and Ravens played at our wedding which had a strong focus on live music. They did an incredible job and had everyone dancing all evening. They were really open to song suggestions and learnt our first dance specially for us. We had endless comments afterwards from friends and family about how impressive they were. The set list was superb – just the right mix of dance, rock and popular music – it really covered all bases. Easy to work with and super professional, I wouldn’t hesitate in booking them again. Thanks so much guys.“

“Wolves and Ravens did an amazing job at our wedding. We chose them because their playlist was varied and different but still had something for everyone, without being your average boring play something we all know type of covers band…. We really didn’t want that! They were professional, fun, accommodating and incredibly easy to work with, exactly what you want on your wedding day. Every single guest raved (and still are) about the band and how good they were… even the restaurant staff! I just wanted to say thanks on behalf of Neil and I.“

You guys really made it awesome!!
Thanks from us both“
Lauren and Brendan – Wedding couple, April 2016
“For three years running we have hired Wolves and Ravens to play in the Corporate Marquee at the Taste of Auckland Festival and each year they have delivered to our brief of providing an elegant musical backdrop to the occasion. We love the diversity of Nina’s offering and when asked to raise the tempo, she can certainly deliver.“
Rob Eliott – Lemongrass Productions & Taste of Auckland, Festival Director – November 2013
“Wolves and Ravens recently performed at a wedding reception held at The Tasting Shed. We’ve had lots of cover bands through over the last few years for different events, and these guys were amazing! They kept the crowd on the dance floor the whole night, and were one of the tightest bands I have heard in a long time! I will definitely be recommending them to other customers for their next event with us.“

“Nina has an gorgeous voice. She was very easy to deal with both before the gig and on the night and wasn’t fazed at all when the dinner run over time and had to delay her performance. Great songs, great sound, and a perfect choice for the evening. Hope to work with both of you again.“
Aaron – Hilton Taupo charity golf tournament, 2013
“Wolves and Ravens played at our event space in Quay St for a wedding. Dylan and the band were great to deal with, very professional and easy-going, and they kept the party-goers dancing all night. They played a great range of music, which suited the wedding guests perfectly, and accommodated requests without missing a beat. I have recommended them with confidence to other groups who have been looking at our venue to hold their events, and always look forward to welcoming them into our space.“
