Zehra and Stu’s Wedding Bandeoke at Sherwood Glade, Nottingham

Our take: a tipi wedding that went off

Zehra & Stu’s wedding at Sherwood Glade, Nottingham had that perfect woodland-tipi energy — fairy lights overhead, a packed floor from the first chorus, and loads of guests already lining up to sing. (You can see it in the gallery: hands in the air, big grins, proper all-in vibes.)

The venue had a strict curfew around 10:30pm, so the couple planned a silent disco taking over afterwards, which we advise them on as part of our planning for them — we helped shape the ending to feel like a natural lift, not a hard stop. Instead of finishing the Bandeoke set and going straight to headphones, we rolled into a short disco run through our PA first, kept the momentum on the dancefloor, and then handed over to the silent disco while everyone was still buzzing. Smooth, organic, and it kept the night feeling “one continuous party”.

First dance was “It Must Be Love” by Madness — played by the band (no guest singers), straight into the celebrations. From there, it was full-tilt guest-led singing… and the couple were spot-on: there were more than enough singers to keep the Bandeoke Experience firing for the whole set.

Couple’s Feedback

A massive thank you for your exceptional show at our wedding on Friday!! Everybody had an amazing time and there we’re people singing that I never imagined would get up there to sing!!

A joy to work with from the very first enquiry email. Whilst they catered to our needs and were super flexible, they had loads of really helpful tips throughout the process that we hadn’t thought about and really helped ensure the event was a roaring success.

The whole band sounded amazing, were super friendly and made everything run like a dream (from our perspective at least). A massive thanks to Holly who took some amazing pictures for is and was there to support when people forgot the lyrics!

Again, many thanks for everything, you have a lot of new fans in Nottinghamshire!!
