Wedding Entertainment in Cheshire

Find your wedding entertainment in Cheshire

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 Cheshire are covered on this page, in one place.

Across Cheshire, our wedding acts play country houses, barns, hotels and marquees in and around Chester, Wilmslow and Nantwich. Venues in the area include Peckforton Castle, Combermere Abbey and Styal Lodge, each with its own space and finish time, which we'll check with the act for you.

Within this category you'll find wedding bands, DJs, solo singers, acoustic duos, string quartets, harpists, magicians and roaming acts. Their pages show exactly what they play, and most will learn a first dance or a special song if you ask.

Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied wedding entertainment for couples right across the country. The acts listed here all travel to Cheshire, bring the equipment they need and include travel in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: from around £300 for a solo act to £1,200 to £4,000 and over for a live band
  • Always included: PA, lighting where relevant and travel costs, in every quote
  • From solo singers and acoustic duos through to full live bands, with line-ups sized to suit your venue
  • Most couples book 12 to 18 months ahead for a summer Saturday, though solo acts and duos can often be booked closer to the date
  • Every booking carries 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.

Solo acts and duos usually start from around £300, DJs and smaller bands sit in the middle, and a full live band ranges from £1,200 to £4,000 and over. Summer Saturdays are the busiest dates. The price in your quote includes travel, so it won't change once you've booked.

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.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

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 Cheshire 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.

“Crawford and the guys were absolutely incredible at our wedding , every guest including us were blown away by Crawfords vocal skills and the bands set list for the night was fantastic! My wife and I are truly grateful for having this unbelievable band performing for our big day, can’t recommend them enough!! Like to also personally thank Del & Gaye at Hireaband during our band booking process and for being so great to work with to make our big day special. 11/10 for everything!!”

“The whole process - from enquiry to our wedding day - was a delight. We had initially booked our wedding band through Hireaband and were looking for a pianist for the ceremony. Gaye sent through a variety option and that is how we found Chris. Chris was amazing! When we talked through what we wanted for our ceremony, he was more than happy to make it happen, not questions asked. All of our guests were so complimentary of the variety of songs he played. Would highly recommend to anyone!”

(5)

“Steven was a fantastic addition to our wedding. We had so many compliments from our guest about how entertaining he was. He was engaging, friendly and kept everyone shocked and scratching their heads with how he did all his tricks. Would definitely recommend!”

(5)

“The Fairmont Trio were excellent on our wedding day. They were prompt and played perfectly throughout the ceremony and the drinks reception. All the guests loved them and we have had so many compliments about their performance. The band members were also super friendly and seemed to enjoy themselves as well.”
