Beautiful!

Scott played at our wedding, both during the ceremony and during the reception. He sang every song we wanted beautifully and everyone commented how wonderful he is. Thank you so much.

That can’t be a live singer … he’s incredible!

Wow where do we even start. We can’t recommend northern acoustics enough. Every single song was played and sang to perfection. One guest even said this can’t be a live singer … walked round the corner and there you were! Your voice is absolutely beautiful and the sets you played were everything we could have asked for.
We are so happy we discovered you and you were such a huge part of our big day.
We’re already thinking of another event we can use you for. Thank you so much and we honestly couldn’t recommend you enough

Beautiful voice

We hired Scott to sing before the ceremony, sing me down the aisle, sing us out, DJ the evening, sing our first dance and 2x40 minutes sets. He was well worth the money! His voice is gorgeous and everyone loved him. Whenever anyone asked for a song playing it was the next song on. He was more than happy to sing our requests and had an extensive song list which we loved.
If we were to do it all over again we would definitely book again. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The most talented duo ever!

I don't feel like what I write in this review will do justice to the amazing talent of these two individuals. But... I'll give it my best shot.

My partner and I were scouring the Internet for wedding entertainment, and since you are reading this, you will know that the choice is near impossible because it has to be perfect. Eventually, we found Northern Acoustic on Instagram and the impeccable sound that they produced was enough to make us fall in love and book straight away. A decision that I will never ever regret.

They arrived promptly on the day, allowing themselves plenty of time to set up and required very little input from the venue or myself, highlighting their expertise and experience. Having someone with that experience really takes the pressure off, especially on a day where you do not want any stress!

They allowed us to choose a range of songs that they would learn prior to the wedding and the sheer amount that they offer in their top package really made us feel like we hadn't paid them enough! On top of that, the songs they performed were completely appropriate throughout the entirety of the day. Our guests cried, smiled, laughed and sang along, and enjoyed every minute of their performances. They even managed to fill a last minute surprise request for me, only giving themselves a week to learn it! That level of dedication really put the icing on the cake for us.

On a final note, the duo didn't switch off once for the entire evening. If they weren't performing, they were conversing with our guests and making them feel welcome and at ease. I cannot recommend Scott and Katia enough. They started the day off as the entertainment for our wedding and they ended it as the two people that made our day the incredible day that it was.

So... if you are looking for the perfect wedding singers for your wedding, trust me, you don't have to look any further.

Wonderful wedding entertainment

We picked Northern Acoustic as our wedding singers after seeing them perform at Harvey Nichols. Their track list was so good and voices are amazing…!they provided the perfect entertainment for our guests in between the meal and night time. They were super professional throughout the booking and on the day, would love to rebook them for another event!

Northern acoustic absolutely made our wedding, as soon as they arrived the party started! Their amazing voices and choice of songs had everyone up on the dance floor. Everyone commented on how brilliant they sounded and that they loved dancing along to their sets. They’re such a friendly duo and made our wedding day so special and we just can’t thank you enough for that! If you want a class act at your wedding then I’d totally recommend northern acoustic to be a part of your big day, they’re amazing!!

Absolutely amazing 👏

We booked Scott quite close to our wedding as our original supplier cancelled. Scott pulled out all the stops to make sure that our package was complete custom and would suit our needs. Including learning 3 x songs of our choice.

We and our guests absolutely loved Scott's music and energy and he is an extremely likeable artist. From our ceremony right through to the first dance, Scott made the day extra special. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Scott!

WOW- Absolutely incredible

Where to even begin?! Our original wedding singer cancelled on us last minute but Northern Acoustic made what should be a very stressful experience into an amazing one. From the very first message I knew he was the right fit. His voice is truly incredible and the guests have not stopped talking about how amazing he was. Honestly, everything happens for a reason and I couldn’t be happier that he was part of our special day. Truly incredible person as well as being an insanely talented artist.

The best wedding singer!

We found Scott last minute after our previous supplier let us down. Scott took the time to speak to me to understand what we wanted and played the whole set list designed by me which was amazing. The guests loved him and so did we. I would hire Scott for every event and wish we could do it all over again!

Perfect if you are looking for something special!

Can't believe it's been three years! We've had a small post pandemic wedding, and were looking for someone who can be the cherry on top kind of a voice and energy. Scott and Katia did not disappoint. We needed someone who will understand our needs for the special songs (it's difficult to find someone who doesn't play mainstream songs on repeat!) and they have delivered exactly when we needed.
Thank you for being so amazing!

Made our day!!

From singing us down the isle, through to an intimate set at our wedding breakfast, Scott absolutely made our day!... Even learning an electric six song for the groom 😁.

Our guests had nothing but compliments for the music.

Amazing value for money, Northern Acoustic fitted into our budget and built a package around our needs.

Live music made such a big difference to the atmosphere. I can't recommend Norther Acoustic highly enough
