Wedding Daytime Entertainment in Nottinghamshire
Wedding daytime entertainment in Nottinghamshire
The hours between the ceremony and the evening band are where a wedding day either flows or drags. In Nottinghamshire, daytime entertainment covers the ceremony itself, the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast, with music or entertainment that keeps guests happy while the photos are taken and the room is turned around.
Whether your wedding is near Nottingham, Mansfield and Newark or further afield, the daytime acts here cover the whole of Nottinghamshire. Local venues include Hodsock Priory, Hazel Gap Barn and Village Hotel, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Colwick Hall, Holme Pierrepont Hall and Inkersall Grange Farm are among the other Nottinghamshire venues listed further down, each with its own page.
The acts that work best in the daytime are the ones that can adapt to the room. Ceremony musicians play acoustically in a church or registry room, drinks reception acts keep the volume at a level where guests can talk, and some acts cover the whole day with a single set-up.

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.
Expect to pay from around £300 up to £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. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
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.
