20 brand new wedding bands you can book for your wedding day!!
Happy Summer folks!
As I type this, it still feels a little weird saying that. For us here at Tailored Entertainment, summer usually sees our bands working themselves into an absolute frenzy providing top notch, unique wedding entertainment to happy couples right across the country. It’s usually our busiest and absolute favourite time of year.
But there’s nothing usual about the times we find ourselves living in, and whilst we’re delighted to see things starting to return to some form of normalcy it looks like it might still be a little while before we’re back out playing for all you lovely people. I promise you though, it will be worth the wait! Cause we here at Tailored towers have not been idle in the months since lockdown began. First off, we've been busy providing plenty of advice on planning a wedding during coronavirus, including some top tips on self-care. But we've also been working hard to make sure that we can offer the very best wedding bands to happy couples at more weddings than ever before once all this comes to an end.
