Music Duos in Cheshire

Live duos for weddings and parties in Cheshire

Two musicians can cover a surprising amount of ground. Across Cheshire, duos play everything from gentle ceremony music to lively party sets, which makes them a popular choice for weddings and celebrations where one act needs to cover most of the day.

Cheshire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Abbeywood Estate and De Vere Cranage Estate to Peckforton Castle. Our duos travel to towns across the area, including Chester, Crewe and Macclesfield, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. You'll find more Cheshire venues below, including Combermere Abbey, Delamere Events and Arley Hall & Gardens, 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.

We've been booking wedding entertainment since 1999, and every duo on this page covers Cheshire. You can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

  • Budget from around £450 to £1,400, 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

For most receptions and dinners, yes. A duo comfortably fills a room of around 100 guests and needs only a small area to set up. For a large function room or a crowd that wants to dance all night, look for a party duo with a bigger PA, or consider a full band.

Most duo bookings fall between £450 and £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. 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.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

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 Cheshire. 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!”

“just a note to say thanks for all the effort you and the guys put in to our wedding day. The comments from our guests were fantastic as was your performance and professionalism throughout. Sorry about the last minute panic calls and mails I sent; you really saved my life with the “it’s no problem” attitude”
