Budget
With weddings costing from £10,000 to £50,000 top wedding planners suggest that you budget around 10% for your entertainment. We can cater for large or small budgets whether its a solo act for your ceremony or a full 10 piece band for your evening reception.
Sound
All bands are equipment with professional sound and lighting to create the best sound and atmosphere. If your venue has a sound limiter our acts are able to adjust their sound to suit the venues requirements.
Style
Which band do you book? You may want a jazz band to suit your 1940's style themed wedding? A tribute of your favourite singer? One of the most popular options is a band that has a cross section of popular music to suit everyone's taste and ensure that your guests are up and on the dance floor.
Space
Does the venue have a suitable space for the band to perform in? For a 4-5 piece band you would typically need a space of around 8m x 4m. For larger line-ups you would need more. As part of our service we can liase with the venue to make sure there is adequate space for your band.
Interval Music
Bands are able to provide interval music through their system to fill in the breaks, before and after their performance. This is a great way to include some of your favourite songs in addition to the bands repertoire. You can get together a playlist and have the band include this or you can plug your own ipod or music player into the bands system to be used instead.
