Wedding Daytime Entertainment in Lincolnshire

Entertainment for the ceremony and drinks reception in Lincolnshire

Guests remember how a wedding day felt as much as what happened. In Lincolnshire, 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.

Popular wedding venues in Lincolnshire include Stoke Rochford Hall, Belvoir Castle and Revesby Abbey, and our daytime acts travel to weddings and events across Lincoln, Grantham and Stamford. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Hanbeck Farm, Stubton Hall and Branston Hall Hotel, with details of each.

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.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The daytime acts listed here all travel to Lincolnshire, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

The essentials:

  • Budget from around £300 to £1,500, depending on the act and the date
  • Book for the ceremony only, or for the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast
  • Popular dates go months in advance
  • Everything included is listed in your quote
  • Change your mind within 14 days and get a full refund

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.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.

FAQs

Anything that happens before the evening band: ceremony music, drinks reception music and entertainment during the wedding breakfast. That includes solo singers, harpists, pianists, guitarists, string quartets, acoustic duos, roaming musicians and close-up magicians.

Yes, and it's a common way to book. Many soloists, duos and quartets offer packages covering all three, which is usually better value than booking separate acts.

Harpists, pianists, guitarists and string quartets usually play acoustically in a ceremony room or church. Singers and duos bring a small PA for larger rooms or outdoor spaces, so tell us the venue in Lincolnshire when you enquire.

Many can, as long as there's cover nearby and power where it's needed. Acoustic instruments such as harps and strings need shelter from sun and rain, so check your venue's wet-weather plan.

Typically £300 to £1,500, depending on the act, how long they perform and the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Many can, given enough notice. Mention it when you enquire and the act will confirm whether they can add it for your day.

“Dear Matt, Just to say a very big THANK YOU from Mike and I for your huge contribution to our wedding celebrations on Saturday. You went down a storm! Everyone is talking about you and we have heard so many stories of your different "tricks" - On top of being a fantastic magician (and pickpocket!) you were extremely witty, quick thinking and amusing. Thank you so much! You made our day.Best wishes.”

“Gentlemen of the Road played at our wedding reception, we loved the performance and style. The guys really made the evening special and played our first dance music, which they learnt especially for us. All of our guests commented on how good the music was and how it created the perfect relaxed and fun atmosphere to our wedding reception. Thanks so much it was a perfect end to our wedding day.”

“Hi. We would like to record our appreciation to Declan Daniel for the music he played at our wedding reception last Saturday. Many of the guests commented on the quality of his playing and there is no doubt that Declan's music added a very special ingredient to our special day. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes for his musical career. Many thanks also for a very efficient service. Best wishes”

“Dear Hireaband, We would like to thank you very much for providing the Smooth Jazz Duo to play at our wedding ceremony and champagne reception, at Turnberry on 10th Sept. They were absolutely brilliant, and their music was perfect for both the ceremony and drinks reception after. Our guests loved their music, and they definitely added to the occasion. We can't thank you and the boys enough.”

“Thank you for a wonderful performance. Jack and Tee were excellent, got everyone up dancing, the music was good enough to satisfy my very fussy musical family and that's saying something. All the guests thought they were great and gave them excellent reviews. We highly recommend them and will not hesitate to call them for another family function. Flexible, current and worth every penny. (10 / 10)”

“"Dear Chris, We were all delighted to hear you play on Emily and Julian's special day. I loved my 'Day without Rain' for my entrance and look forward to hearing all the music before that too on the video. The guests were delighted with your repertoire with a number of comments of who was your wonderful pianist! Thank you once again for making our day extra special."”
