October 13, 2026The Rambling Roses made our wedding unforgettable!
Andy and the Rambling Roses absolutely knocked it out of the park at our wedding. We lost count of how many guests told us how incredible the band was!
From the uptempo opener, “You Make My Dreams,” through the encore, “Not Fade Away,” it was one banger after another. Michelle’s ethereal vocals on “What’s Up?” and the soulful sax groove on “Shakedown Street” were particular highlights. Beyond the amazing music, the band brought energy, warmth, and heart that made the whole night feel special.
Seeing so many people we love dancing, singing, laughing, and completely letting loose is something we’ll treasure forever. The Roses gave us exactly the celebration we’d hoped for and made a lot of new fans along the way—including us!
We can’t recommend them highly enough. If you want a band that brings fantastic music and keeps the dance floor full, book the Rambling Roses!
