Other Wedding Entertainment in Newcastle upon Tyne
Wedding day entertainment beyond the band in Newcastle upon Tyne
The ceremony, the drinks and the wedding breakfast each call for a different kind of entertainment. Couples in Newcastle upon Tyne 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.
Newcastle upon Tyne has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Wylam Brewery and Northside Farm to The Biscuit Factory. The acts on this page travel right across the area, including the Quayside, Jesmond and Gateshead, 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.

Many acts on this page play outdoors, but it's worth planning a covered spot in case of rain. Acoustic acts can move inside in minutes, and harpists and quartets will need a flat, sheltered area to set up.
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.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients who have already booked them, often at venues you'll recognise. Between them you'll have a clear picture of the wedding well before the day.
