Music Duos in Northumberland

Live duos for weddings and parties in Northumberland

For many weddings and parties in Northumberland, 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.

Northumberland has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Healey Barn and Charlton Hall to Slaley Hall Hotel. Our duos travel to towns across the area, including Alnwick, Morpeth and Berwick-upon-Tweed, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Newton Hall, The Barn on the Bay and Langley Castle, with details of each.

Many duos are built for flexibility, starting with a gentle acoustic set for the ceremony and drinks, then switching to a livelier set later in the day. That makes a duo one of the best-value ways to cover several parts of a wedding.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The duos listed here all travel to Northumberland, 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

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.

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.
