Wedding Entertainment Ideas

Planning your dream wedding day can admittedly be a little bit stressful at times. There are just so many things to think about; from the invites to the catering, from the perfect dress to the most picturesque venue…wedding planning can very quickly become a considerable maze that its all too easy to get lost in! Along with all this, you're no doubt searching for ideas and inspiration for your ideal wedding entertainment to really make your day as special as it can possibly be. Well, we'd very much like to help you with that.

At Tailored Entertainment, our goal is to realise your wedding entertainment dreams while making it as fun, straightforward and stress-free as possible. We represent a stunning selection of the best professional wedding bands in the UK, offering live music for every aspect of your big day with styles to suit every taste and venue. Whatever music you love, we have a host of scintillating acts for you to choose from.

Whether you're looking for acoustic singer/guitarists to walk you down the aisle or really put that finesse into your wedding breakfast, Mumford & Sons style live bands for a barnstorming night on the dancelfloor, jazz trios to complete an elegant drinks reception or a 10-piece soul band fit for a 5-star hotel: Tailored Entertainment can provide it all, complete with unrivalled production and guidance from our team of expert event planners, from the very first correspondence to the last.

We thought we'd go ahead and detail some of our most popular wedding entertainment solutions of the last year, just to give you an idea of how marvellously unique your live music options can really be. If you would like to chat further about your live wedding entertainment, feel free to give us a call on 0800 564 2240. Our team would be absolutely delighted to hear from you.

Wedding Ceremony Music

Live music can add a beautifully romantic atmosphere to your wedding ceremony that is simply impossible to match without it. We have a wonderful host of ideal musicians including guitarists, pianists, singers and acoustic duos; all of whom will make the perfect accompaniment to your ceremony. All of our performers are only too happy to learn a special song request for you too; perfect if there's that one song that's a must-have when you walk down the aisle.

Our acts can offer 15-20 minutes of mood-setting music as your guests find their seats, a song as the bride takes that big walk down the aisle, some more music during the signing of the registers, finished off with some songs to accompany the happy couple's exit.

For more wedding ceremony entertainment ideas, check out our Soloists & Duos page. A particularly popular addition to wedding ceremonies is our excellent singer/guitarist Rob, combining the perfect sound and style for your ceremony.

Drinks Reception Music

So, you've got that rather important little detail of getting married sorted; now it's time to celebrate! We think that the drinks reception is the ideal place to really start building that party atmosphere, and there is simply no better way to get your celebration started than hiring our wandering acoustic musicians to mingle in between your guests and perform your favourite songs to everybody personally!

Roaming acoustic acts are becoming a hugely popular addition to events and drinks receptions across the country, and they don't come any better than the UK's favourite roaming acoustic performers, The Wanderland Band. Our boys are an absolute ball: guaranteed to inject unrivalled enjoyment and infectious energy into your afternoon, inviting all your guests to sing along and join in the fun.

Evening Reception Music

Nothing quite compares to a live band for your evening reception. There truly is no better way to top off your big day: They bring a spine-tingling atmosphere to your evening that simply cannot be matched by even the best DJ's. Our professional live bands specialise in building your night towards an unbelievable finale that will have every guest on their feet and leave you with a completely unforgettable end to your evening: finishing your night in style and offering you the perfect send-off as newly-weds!

All of our bands will happily perform a first dance of your choice, and provide two hours of dancefloor-cramming live music. We even offer a disco/DJ set as standard with every one of our bands, so there is no need to hire an additional DJ on the night. In addition, all our acts are fully self-contained with all the production equipment they need, so that every aspect of your evening's entertainment is completely covered. There's no need to worry about a thing; you're free to dance the night away!

We offer live bands to suit all styles, tastes and genres; from soul and Motown to modern chart filling pop, indie rock, the ever popular festival bands and everything in between. One of our most popular acts of the last year has been The Thamesmen, offering five decades of the very best British pop music. Take a look at their brilliant promotional video below.

If you feel like we haven't covered exactly what you're looking for, don't worry! We have options to suit everyone, and our wonderful team specialises in helping to make your dream wedding a reality. Please feel free to give us a call and chat about more live music options for your wedding on 0800 564 2240.
