Wedding Entertainment in Berkshire

Live wedding entertainment across Berkshire

Every couple wants something different from their wedding entertainment: a full live band to fill the dance floor, a solo singer for the ceremony, or an acoustic duo for the drinks reception. Whatever the format, weddings in Berkshire are covered on this page, in one place.

Whether your wedding is near Maidenhead, Newbury and Windsor or elsewhere in Berkshire, the acts listed here cover the whole area. Local venues include Wasing Park, Dorney Court and Cantley House Hotel. Ask your venue early about its finish time and any sound limiter, as both affect which acts suit it.

Not every act does the same job. Some are best for a quiet, elegant ceremony, others for a lively reception or a packed dance floor. Knowing which parts of the day you want to cover makes the choice much easier.

We've been booking wedding acts since 1999, and every act on this page covers Berkshire. PA, lighting where needed and travel are built into the quote, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

What to know:

  • Budget from £300 for a ceremony musician and £1,200 to £4,000+ for a band
  • Every quote includes travel and any PA or lighting the act needs
  • Many acts will learn a first dance or special song
  • Solo acts and duos can often be booked at shorter notice
  • Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Some venues have sound limiters, early finishes or restrictions on where acts can set up. Check these early, as they can decide whether a full band, a smaller line-up or a DJ is the better fit.

It varies a lot by format. A solo singer or acoustic duo typically starts from around £300, whereas a live band can be anything from £1,200 to £4,000 and over, depending on the line-up and the date. PA, lighting where relevant and travel 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.

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.

FAQs

Wedding Entertainment is the full range — live bands, solo singers, duos, acoustic musicians and more — so you can compare every option in one place rather than committing to one format first.

It varies a lot by format — a solo singer or acoustic duo typically starts from around £300, whereas a live band can be anything from £1,200 all the way to £4,000 and over, depending on line-up size. Travel is always included in every quote.

Yes — solo acts and duos are one of the most popular choices for smaller weddings, ceremonies or where budget or space is limited, and they're booked through the same instant-quote process.

Yes, every act listed here travels to Berkshire as standard, with travel costs already included in the quote you receive.

Many acoustic acts and duos can cover ceremony music as well as an evening set — check each act's own page for what's included, or ask us directly when you enquire.

Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday — earlier is generally safer the bigger the act, since full bands get booked up first.

Reviews

“Thank you SO much for an absolutely outstanding performance at our wedding on Saturday night! You guys were incredible, from first dance to last it was just spectacular!! The musicality and professionalism of the entire band was second to none throughout the entire evening. We can’t thank you enough for making our wedding night so special. Our guests couldn’t praise you enough! Thanks again, we’ll be sure to recommend you guys to anyone looking for a top quality function band!”

“My husband talked me into getting a band for our wedding rather than a DJ and I am so glad he did, these guys were amazing! He was never off the dancefloor (and he never dances!) They have songs to suit any type of guest and they really get the crowd involved. My husband has been in several bands himself in the past, so he loved having the opportunity to play drums along with the band for a song, it made the night that little more special, so thank you guys!”
