Reviews of Bands & Ensembles

Reverie
"Reverie made our wedding day absolutely unforgettable! Their setlist was perfectly curated, blending indie and rock hits with pop anthems that got everyone dancing. We received countless compliments from our guests about how amazing the band was. Highly recommended!"

Emily Harrison
Vintage Strings
"Unbelievable!! We had Vintage Strings come to play for our wedding ceremony and during our drinks reception. Communication was amazing and they even learned new songs for us to have exactly what we wanted for the entrance music, and nothing was too much trouble. They sounded absolutely beautiful and we had nothing but compliments, we are hoping to have them again in the future for other events! Thank you again 🩷"

Frequently asked questions

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. It’s sometimes not possible for acts that use a lot of electronic equipment to perform anywhere where it might rain.If the act is happy to perform outdoors you should plan to have electrical outlets close to the performance area and provide a flat surface as well as a cover in case of rain.
Each event is different but the typical performance time for bands & ensembles is 2 x 45 minutes sets within a 2 hours period. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.
Booking bands & ensembles as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.
Most bands & ensembles are self-contained and provide their own sound equipment which is suitable for typical situations. If your event is to be held in a large venue, or you have more than 300 guests, we recommend that additional sound equipment should be used. Always ask your act about their sound system requirements. Some bands & ensembles have lighting systems, but most usually will charge extra for this or recommend a third party supplier for you to use.
Frequently asked questions about Bands & Ensembles, how to register and how results are ordered are in the help & FAQs.
