Wedding Entertainment in Somerset

Wedding entertainment in Somerset

The right entertainment can carry a wedding from the aisle to the dance floor. Couples in Somerset book everything from a harpist for the ceremony to a full band with brass for the evening, and many combine two or three acts across the day.

Across Somerset, our wedding acts play country houses, barns, hotels and marquees in and around Yeovil, Taunton and Bath. Venues in the area include St Audries Park, Homewood Park Hotel and The Cider Barn at Dillington Estate, 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.

We've been booking wedding acts since 1999, and every act on this page covers Somerset. 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.

At a glance:

  • Solo acts start from around £300; live bands range from £1,200 to £4,000 and over
  • PA, lighting where relevant and travel are included in the price you're quoted
  • Mix formats across the day, from ceremony music to an evening band
  • Summer Saturdays book up 12 to 18 months ahead
  • A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking

Room size and the moment in the day both matter. A solo singer or acoustic duo suits a ceremony or drinks reception without overwhelming the space, while a larger band is the right call for filling a dance floor in a ballroom or marquee later in the evening.

Expect to pay from around £300 for a solo ceremony musician up to £4,000 or more for a large band with brass. The format matters most, then the date and how long the act plays. Every quote includes travel and any PA or lighting needed, 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.

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

Reviews

“We did something a little bit different and organised for the piper to play on the Sunday morning after our wedding to welcome our guests for breakfast. Our piper was brilliant. He was punctual and professional. He had good communication throughout. Our guests, especially our English relatives couldn’t stop raving about him and he was kind enough to have photos taken also. Would highly recommend. Colin was friendly and approachable and a great musician.”

(5)

“Uptones Duo were the perfect start to our wedding day. All of our guests commented on how beautiful they sounded at the ceremony and during our reception drinks. I couldn’t have asked for more, thank you for helping to make our day so special.”

“Mirror were absolutely amazing at our wedding, from the 3 piece jazz band during reception drinks through to the 8 piece evening band, the music was incredible and kept everyone on the dance floor. Since the wedding so many people have commented on just how good the band were and we couldn't agree more. We'd seen Mirror 2x before and they just get better each time - I couldn't recommend them more highly, the dance floor stayed packed the whole night - thank you!”

“Justin was amazing. Right on time, right on cue and took all our requests and made most of them possible without dropping a beat! Communication was great too, we spoke live only once before, but then when he came it's like we've known each other since forever. Would hire him again anytime!!!”

“Marcus played at our wedding on Saturday and everyone just loved him. Our guests talked about him all night and since the wedding we've heard nothing but praise. The weather did its best to dampen our spirits but Marcus just added a ray of sunshine to the whole day.”

“Konrad played during our afternoon drinks reception at our wedding. We asked for a mix of music and he hit that brief perfectly for us. All of our guests said how nice it was to have live Sax music played during that part of the day and we couldn’t agree more. Finally we were played into our meal and it really set the tone perfectly for a fun party for the rest of the night. I cannot recommend Konrad more and will definitely be booking through HireABand again.”
