Other Wedding Entertainment in Northumberland
Wedding day entertainment beyond the band in Northumberland
Other wedding entertainment covers the specialist and smaller acts that most weddings add around the main band: solo singers, acoustic duos, harpists, pianists, classical guitarists, string quartets, close-up magicians and roaming musicians. Couples in Northumberland book them for the ceremony, the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast.
Northumberland has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Hallington Mill and Langley Castle to Doxford Barns. The acts on this page travel right across the area, including Alnwick, Bamburgh and Hexham, and fit around your ceremony time, photos and wedding breakfast.
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.

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.
Most bookings fall between £300 and £1,500. A solo musician for the ceremony alone sits at the lower end; a string quartet or an act covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Travel and any equipment are included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style and the atmosphere before you commit.
