Other Wedding Entertainment in Gloucestershire

Ceremony, drinks reception and daytime entertainment in Gloucestershire

The ceremony, the drinks and the wedding breakfast each call for a different kind of entertainment. Couples in Gloucestershire often book a harpist or quartet for the ceremony, an acoustic act for the drinks and a magician for the tables, building a day that flows from one moment to the next.

Gloucestershire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Tortworth Court and Owlpen to Cripps Barn. The acts on this page travel right across the area, including Cirencester, Cheltenham and Stroud, and fit around your ceremony time, photos and wedding breakfast.

Within this category you'll find solo singers, acoustic duos, harpists, pianists, classical guitarists, string quartets and ensembles, close-up magicians and roaming bands. Their pages list exactly what they play, and most will add a requested piece or two.

Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied ceremony and reception acts for weddings of every size. The acts listed here all travel to Gloucestershire, bring what they need to be heard and include travel in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

At a glance:

• Most bookings cost between £300 and £1,500
• Travel and any amplification are included in the price you're quoted
• Book one act for the ceremony or cover the whole daytime
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so enquire early
• A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking

Think about where the act will be and what guests will be doing. A harpist, pianist or string quartet suits a ceremony room or a church, where the music needs to carry without amplification. A drinks reception outdoors is better served by an acoustic duo, a roaming band or a solo singer with a small PA.

Expect to pay from around £300 for a solo musician up to £1,500 or more for an ensemble covering several parts of the day. The act, the length of the booking and the date make the biggest difference. Every quote includes travel, so nothing is added later.

Each act's page carries real video, audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how an act works a room than any description can, so it's worth watching two or three before you shortlist.

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 event. 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.
