We found Restless Carolina through Instagram after what felt like months of looking...and we immediately knew we had to book them. We are SO glad we did. They were incredible! They are all very talented, their song lists are very diverse and modern (hello, Olivia Rodrigo and Beyonce!), and they were very kind and easy to work with. All night and weeks after, people kept telling us how they were the best wedding band they've ever seen. They kept the party going and I'm just so glad we found them because they really made our night special.
Seriously the best band ever! We had an incredible wedding three months ago and guests are still talking about how amazing the band was! I can’t say enough great things about them!
Restless Carolina was the best!!! They were the absolute hit of our wedding and kept people on the dance floor all night. Their set list was amazing, can't recommend them enough!
Everyone said the band was great! And they were. They were great to work them prior to the wedding and accommodated almost all our music request.They played our iTune songs for the ceremony over their sound system and let me borrow a mic to make an announcement. We had a brief shower which unfortunately depleted our crowd. Toward the end they were taking our request and even let me come on stage and sing with them. Again you can’t wrong. Oh yea splurge for the whole ensemble horns and all. It’s worth it! Thanks Ty, Jessie and the rest of Restless Carolina you definitely helped make our wedding memorable!
Booking Restless Carolina was the best decision I made for my wedding...it definitely would not have been complete without the live band. All of my guests are in agreement that Restless Carolina was the best wedding band they have ever seen. The band was able to play our first dance songs and even included last minute twist songs at the request of my dad. EVERYONE at every age was on the dance floor the entire night..i'm talking grandmothers and a one year old that just learned to walk not too long ago. I loved the set list they chose and the energy of the band was undeniable. Thank you, Restless Carolina, for completing our wedding day. We hope you're still around when we renew our vows;)
HOLY COW! … Restless Carolina did BEYOND an amazing job at our wedding. They are the BEST! 95% of the guests (big wedding of 200) were out of their chairs and dancing… even the 85 year old grandmothers! They played an assortment of music and maintained a FUN atmosphere for those of all ages. I had not seen this band live prior to hiring them so I booked based on great reviews, awesome video recordings, their impressively long and varied song list, and their organization from the very beginning. Ty was extremely communicative and very receptive to our specific requests. The band even performed our first dance song and I couldn’t have imagined it any other way. Our guests haven’t stopped talking about how great the band was! They were everything we hoped for and so much more. HIGHLY recommend this band!!!
We were lucky enough to have Restless Carolina preform at our out of town wedding. They were amazing to say the least. I can't count the number of guest who later asked who they were and told us they were the best band. They played everything from Queen to Spice girls to Chainsmokers and then surprised us at the end of the night with Shallows (best surprise ever)!!! Not to mention they were so easy to work with and all so nice. We highly recommend!
We hired Restless Carolina for our October 2018 wedding. It was one of the best decisions we made! They are incredibly talented, so easy to work with, and honored every one of our requests. They made our reception everything we wanted, we never left the dance floor! We would highly recommend Restless Carolina!
They really made our wedding memorable. As soon as they announced us and throughout the night they really did a wonderful job making our reception unique. They were able to not only learn the father daughter dance, but also learned the mother son dance. having the band be so diligent even before the wedding, i was totally confident with what they were going to do, and throughout the night was taken away by how interactive and engaging they were. If you are looking for a band that you and your guests will remember you don't need to look any further!
We heard Restless Raleigh 2 years before we got engaged one night out in Raleigh. We made a deal with each other that if we were to ever get married, Restless Raleigh was the band that we wanted to play at our wedding. As soon as my now husband proposed, we contacted Tyler and booked them. The wedding was a blast all thanks to this wonderful band. They were super easy to work with and followed all of our requests! I definitely recommend Restless Raleigh to play at your event!
We booked Restless for our wedding in September 2016. I had seen Restless play at a couple of bars prior to booking them. I met with Tyler to discuss the contract in Spring 2016. He was super flexible and easy to work with. They offered to learn our first dance song and asked for a playlist of "must haves" and "do no plays." I made a wish list, fully expecting Restless to play several of the songs on the ipod during set break. Restless learned every single song!! Including all of our intro songs. They were amazing!! All of the members looked great and sounded great. Restless started the evening off with songs for everyone (grandparents, older guests and younger guests). After the set break, they played some of the more current songs. I cannot recommend Restless enough! They are super talented musicians and have a great sound. They have two lead singers, a male and female, and several of the other members sing, so they can play pretty much any song. Their energy was FANTASTIC. People were on the dance floor as soon as they started playing and didn't leave the dance floor until our wedding was over. Everyone - and I mean everyone (grandparents, etc) were out there dancing. It was awesome! They brought great energy, sound - the music was amazing - and the band members looked like they were having a great time throughout the evening. They were on the dance floor at certain points, helping get the crowd hyped. I cannot say enough about Restless! They were so easy to work with. They made my reception. They really did! I would highly recommend Restless, if you are considering them for your band!!
