Wedding Daytime Entertainment in London
Wedding daytime entertainment in London
Guests remember how a wedding day felt as much as what happened. In London, 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 London include St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London, Grand Connaught Rooms and Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, and our daytime acts travel to weddings and events across central London, Greenwich and Richmond. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. The Lensbury, Syon House at Syon Park and Royal Lancaster London are among the other London venues listed further down, each with its own page.
You can build the daytime around one act or several. Some couples choose a string quartet or harpist for the ceremony and an acoustic duo for the drinks reception; others book a single singer or pianist to cover everything from the aisle to the wedding breakfast.
Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for weddings since 1999. Every daytime act listed here travels to London as standard, and the instant quote button on this page shows pricing and availability for your date.

- Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday
- Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind 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.
Most daytime act bookings fall between £300 and £1,500. 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. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
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.
