 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig Francis was our 7-piece band at our wedding. We also had a Craig Francis duo for our ceremony. They were amazing and so lovely and flexible to work with. They were happy to take our song requests in the lead up, to work with our MC (who is a friend and guest) and to work with 2 other musicians that performed at our wedding. I can highly recommend Craig Francis!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig came to our rescue! We wanted to have a sax player at our wedding reception and were about 6 weeks out without an artist. Not only did Craig provide us with options, but also gave us someone who could work with our existing DJ and acoustic guitarist/singer to jam to Bollywood tunes.

The value add that Craig also provided us was to sense check prices of what other A/V vendors were providing. He was extremely transparent throughout and a joy to work with. Thank you, Craig (& team)!

To our sax player, Nigel, thank you for bringing incredible energy, passion and FUN to an amazing evening. The guests kept complimenting the entertainment and you were a massive part of that!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Craig Francis Music for our wedding recently and we were very happy with how everything turned out on the night. We had Dan and Jess as an acoustic duo for the ceremony and canapé hour that followed. All of guests commented on how talented they both were. I wish my husband and I were able to have seen more of them! We had a DJ for our reception and unfortunately she pulled out on the day due to being unwell but thankfully Craig was able to organise a replacement last minute. Malcolm did a great job as MC/DJ on the night and we are thrilled with how everything turned out.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A big thank you to Craig and his team. Jess and the 5 piece band were exactly what we wanted and set the tone for a fun filled night! A special shout out to Craig for accomodating a few last minute requests and making sure bump in and out was seamless. So organised! We loved it! Highly recommend Craig and his talented team of musicians.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig Francis Music is amazing. I thought they would be too "extra" to have for my combined 50th with my husband, at our home, and they were, but it was awesome. Craig promised to make our party epic and it truly was. The sound quality is amazing, their talent outstanding and Craig is able to read the crowd and knows how to get the party started. His knowledge and experience means you are in good hands. We continue to get feedback from guests about how great the band was. Very professional, very fun, I highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig, Jess and all of the band were truly exceptional throughout the entirety of our wedding reception. Many guests commented on how fantastic they were, both during and after the evening. They truly helped set the tone, with Craig also providing an excellent MC service. Communication in the lead up was easy and stress free. We highly recommend Craig, Jess and all of the band.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We absolutely loved having this band play for our wedding! They smashed out hit after hit the whole night and had everyone dancing for hours. Berni was particularly delightful but the whole band were gorgeous people and we had so much fun with them. Don’t think twice, just book them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I were absolutely thrilled with the band from Craig Francis Music at our wedding. Craig was lovely to work with - we got the impression right from the start that he was organised, experienced and believed in quality of service. It was a great relief to have someone so professional looking after the music at our wedding.

We came in with a range of specific requests for the music and were really pleased that Craig and the band were able to cater to our needs to a tee. Even though Craig is experienced enough to run the whole show and call all the shots, he was very respectful of what we wanted from the night and it was delivered just as we'd hoped!

On the day itself, the 4-piece band played wonderfully and our guests were blown away by the quality of the music. Even though Craig himself came down with illness and was not able to perform, he had terrific back-up plans in place and his replacement was just as good. The dance floor was buzzing all night and it was clear that the band were enjoying themselves almost as much as the guests, and of course, my wife and I! We wholeheartedly recommend Craig and the team to anyone considering them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig was an absolute wonder in helping us organise the timings and schedule of our wedding reception. He gave amazing suggestions for songs and was able to accommodate all of the changes and additions we had made.

We had Jessica as our lead and MC for the night and we could not thank her enough the for wonderful job that she did. Not only did she sound absolutely phenomenal, she was very professional and organised and made sure all the little details were how we wanted them.

With a band being able to make or break a reception, the Craig Francis Music group absolutely made the night for us. Our guests could not believe how great the band was and we would highly recommend them for any event. Thank you for making our night so amazing!
