Wedding Daytime Entertainment in Wiltshire
Wedding daytime entertainment in Wiltshire
Most weddings in Wiltshire have a long stretch of the day before the evening band sets up. A singer for the aisle, a string quartet or harpist over the canapés, an acoustic duo on the lawn or a magician working the tables fills that time and gives guests something to talk about.
Across Wiltshire, daytime acts are booked for weddings and events in and around Salisbury, Swindon and Trowbridge. Venues in the area include Winkworth Farm, Barford Park Barn and Bowood House & Gardens, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Pythouse Kitchen Garden, Bowerchalke Barn and The Manor House, Castle Combe are among the other Wiltshire 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.

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.
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.
