“Simply amazing! The R Collective's dynamic, fun, party-vibe led to a consistently full dance floor and many wedding guests commented on how great they were.

Could not have been happier!

5 stars - The R Collective are Highly Recommended
booked The R Collective for their Wedding

“The R Collective played at our wedding and we could not have been happier with them! They communicated with us all the way through the process and showed flexibility in allowing us to shape their set list and following our strict time schedule. They were professional is their set up and brilliant in their performance! We had so many comments from guests who said they’d never seen so many people consistently on the dance floor at a wedding. They helped make our day even more special and we would highly recommend them for any function. Thank you again guys!”


Flexible, reassuring approach

5 stars - The R Collective are Highly Recommended
booked The R Collective for their event

“During the planning stages of my birthday party, The R Collective were keen to discuss arrangements and specific song choices, so that the evening was a success for all my guests. Their flexible, reassuring approach left me feeling confident beforehand. On the night, they played all my song choices as well as a great mix of other songs which led to a packed dance floor throughout both sets. Many guests commented on their skill and professionalism. During the party, they also helped to organise proceedings. It was a brilliant night and we all enjoyed it. I would highly recommend The Rockets to anyone planning an event.”
