Other Wedding Entertainment in Hertfordshire

Wedding day entertainment beyond the band in Hertfordshire

The hours before the evening band starts are where the right entertainment makes the biggest difference. A singer for the aisle, a string quartet over the canapés or a magician working the tables keeps the day moving and gives guests something to talk about between the photos.

Popular wedding venues in Hertfordshire include Tewinbury, Micklefield Hall and Pendley Manor Hotel, and our acts perform at weddings across Hertford, Watford and St Albans. Tell us your venue and running order when you enquire and we'll suggest acts for each part of the day.

Each act is booked for a particular part of the day. Harpists, pianists and string quartets suit the ceremony, acoustic duos and solo singers suit the drinks reception, and magicians and roaming musicians work between groups of guests. Many can learn a special song for the aisle or the signing of the register.

Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied ceremony and reception acts for weddings of every size. The acts listed here all travel to Hertfordshire, 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.

What to know:

• Budget £300 for a solo ceremony musician up to £1,500 for a quartet covering the day
• Every quote includes travel and the act's equipment
• Many acts will learn a special song for the aisle
• Acoustic acts can play without power in most spaces
• Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund

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.

Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.
