Wedding Daytime Entertainment in Blackpool

Entertainment for the ceremony and drinks reception in Blackpool

Guests remember how a wedding day felt as much as what happened. In Blackpool, the right daytime entertainment keeps the ceremony special, the drinks reception lively and the wedding breakfast relaxed, so there are no flat moments before the evening starts.

Whether your wedding is near Blackpool, Lytham St Annes and Fleetwood or further afield, the daytime acts here cover the whole of Blackpool. Local venues include The Winter Gardens, The Norbreck Castle Hotel and Savoy Hotel, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Park House Hotel, Blackpool Tower Ballroom and Grand Hotel Blackpool are among the other Blackpool venues listed further down, each with its own page.

Daytime entertainment is a mix of act types, each suited to a different part of the day: harpists and pianists for the ceremony, acoustic duos and solo singers for the drinks reception, string quartets for a classic feel, and roaming musicians or close-up magicians to keep guests entertained between photos.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for weddings since 1999. Every daytime act listed here travels to Blackpool as standard, and the instant quote button on this page shows pricing and availability for your date.

The essentials:

• Prices usually from £300 up to £1,500
• Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
• The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
• 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

Start with the running order. Most couples want music for the walk down the aisle and the signing of the register, then something relaxed for the drinks reception and the meal. One act booked across all three is usually better value than separate bookings, and it means one set-up and one point of contact on the day.

Prices usually start from around £300 and go up to £1,500 or so. A solo musician for the ceremony alone sits at the lower end, while a quartet or an act covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.

Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
