Music Duos in Bedfordshire

Book a music duo in Bedfordshire

A duo gives you more than a solo act without the size of a full band. In Bedfordshire, duos are booked for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, dinners and parties, adding harmonies and a fuller sound while still fitting into a small space.

Popular wedding venues in Bedfordshire include Bellows Mill, The Barns Hotel and Moreteyne Manor, and our duos travel to weddings and events across Bedford, Luton and Dunstable. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. You'll find more Bedfordshire venues below, including Shuttleworth House, Old Warden, Corner 5 Restaurant and Moore Place Hotel, each with its own page.

Two musicians can do a surprising amount. An acoustic duo adds harmonies to a ceremony, a jazz duo gives a dinner a sense of occasion, and a party duo with backing tracks can fill a dance floor in a room where a full band wouldn't fit.

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

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £450 to £1,400, depending on how long they perform and the date
  • Your quote shows exactly what's included
  • Ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast packages available from many acts
  • Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

An acoustic duo, usually vocals with guitar, suits a ceremony and drinks reception. A jazz or lounge duo works well through a dinner. A party duo with backing tracks is the one to choose if you want a dance floor later, as it gives the sound of a bigger band from two performers.

Expect to pay from around £450 up to £1,400. A single daytime set sits at the lower end, while a duo covering the ceremony, drinks, meal and an evening set 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.

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.

The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.

FAQs

It depends on the duo. Acoustic duos play stripped-back versions of well-known songs, jazz duos play standards and lounge music, and party duos play dance-floor hits, often with backing tracks.

Many can. A lot of duos offer packages covering the ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast and an evening set.

A party duo with a proper PA is, for most venues in Bedfordshire. For very large rooms, tell us the guest numbers and we'll suggest whether a duo or a bigger line-up suits better.

Not much. Around two by three metres and a nearby power socket is usually enough.

Typically £450 to £1,400, depending on the style, how long they play and the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Most can, given enough notice. Mention it when you enquire.

“Absolutely fantastic, very professional. A beautiful voice which was even better than the video. We booked them for 1 hr and to sing our first dance song. It is a memory that I will never forget. All the guests really enjoyed the music as they sang songs from all genres and did it extremely well. Very talented. We are very pleased that we booked them and could not have asked for more.”

“"Gavin, I was sitting with my son near to the set on Friday. We were not going to stay but then your music came on... We stayed for the full 3 sets. Just wanted to say - you were very slick, very professional - we had a really great evening. I will be doing something requiring music this spring or summer, so I will definitely contact you, cheers!"”

“Emily and David played at my 40th birthday party last Summer. Communication and planning before the party was very professional. We had so much fun on the night, they played a great range of covers and they really got the party going. They are both great singers and musicians and the atmosphere was fab. I would highly recommended, thank you so much!”

“Hi De La Duo, THANK YOU!!! The day feels like a bit of a blur if I'm honest but one of my clearest memories was walking down the aisle (rather quickly oops) and hearing you playing. It was beautiful. John and I have received so many compliments about you guys. you truly were a highlight of the day! All the best, Charlotte and John x”

“Absolutely Fantastic! We booked All Night Long for a corporate event held at Wyboston Lakes and everyone who attended thoroughly enjoyed it! A great mix of music, talented musicians and brilliant singers. Booking was effortless and very well organised. We couldn't have asked for more. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend for large scale events or smaller gatherings. Thank you again for providing us with such an enjoyable evening!”
