Music Duos in London

Live duos for weddings and parties in London

For many weddings and parties in London, a duo is the ideal middle ground: more musical depth than a solo act, a fraction of the space of a full band, and the flexibility to play from the ceremony through to the evening.

Popular wedding venues in London include Royal Lancaster London, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew and Eltham Palace, and our duos 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. Other venues in the area include Fulham Palace, Grand Connaught Rooms and The Gore Hotel, and each has its own venue page further down.

Duos come in several styles: acoustic duos playing stripped-back versions of well-known songs, jazz and lounge duos for a relaxed reception, and party duos using backing tracks to give a full-band sound for dancing.

Hireaband has booked wedding entertainment since 1999. Each duo on this page travels to London as standard, and the instant quote button shows prices and availability for your date without waiting for a reply.

The essentials:

• Prices usually from £450 up to £1,400
• Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
• The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
• 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

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.

Prices usually start from around £450 and go up to £1,400 or so. 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. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.

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.

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.
