    Entertainment Nation

    Excellent company from start to finish. When we initially enquired for a wedding singer we had very specific requirements for our wedding day. Having looked through the large portfolio of singers we found just the performer. We had everything lined up until a last minute change meant we had to change our singer. Entertainment nation were very responsive in their communication and extremely helpful. We owe a lot of thanks to these guys as they helped arrange a performer whom of which gave the performance of a lifetime, and truly made our wedding day a special occasion. Superb service and a company that massively cares about their customer's needs. Thanks again!!

    FAQs

    We like to make things easy for you. Simply send an enquiry for the band (or bands) you love by filling out the super-quick form on their profile. We'll take it from there, gathering quotes and availability and answering all your questions.

    Once you've decided on your band, all we need is a deposit to secure them for your date. From there, we'll provide a secure contract between you and the band.

    Just like that, another item ticked off your wedding to-do list!

    Don't worry if you're feeling overwhelmed, our friendly team are here to help you find the perfect band for your special day.

    To get in touch, start a WhatsApp chat, give us a ring on 0800 53 000 35 or fill out the simple form on our contact page and we'll get some hand-picked recommendations over to you right away!

    We recommend booking your wedding band as early as possible. Some of our most popular bands get snapped up quickly, often two years or more in advance! To avoid disappointment, it's best to hire your wedding entertainment as soon as you've booked your venue, ensuring you don't miss out on your dream band.

    Our bands come in all shapes, sizes and styles. Whatever your tastes, you can find the band that suits your vision for the big day here, and if you're struggling to find them, don't worry! Give our team a shout over WhatsApp, email or phone, let us know what you're looking for and we'll help match you with the perfect act.

    We offer wedding bands that play music in almost any genre you can think of! While some bands specialise in a particular genre (jazz or Motown, for example), most play an incredible mix of music that combines all-time classics with today's biggest hits to ensure everyone - from kids to grandparents - has an amazing time dancing the night away.

    Wherever you are in the UK (or the world), you'll be able to find a brilliant band with Entertainment Nation. As well as having bands located across the UK, most of our acts are happy to travel to your venue. Choose your location from the location filter and all act from prices will update to include travel to that area.

    Your band will do their best to work your favourites from their repertoire into their setlist for the big night. The band can't promise to play all of your selections - but they're experienced professionals and you can rely on them to perform a setlist that maintains the party vibe and keeps everyone dancing. Bands hone their setlists over years of performing; creating one that has maximum impact at your event is all part of the service.

    Most bands are happy to learn and perform your First Dance as part of their standard package for an unforgettable start to your celebrations.

    The cost of hiring a wedding band can vary based on factors like the band's size, availability, and travel distance, but there's something for every budget! For smaller budgets, you might consider a solo artist or duo instead of a larger band.

    Use our filters to explore different band types and price points. If you already have a style or budget in mind and need a bit of help with your options, give us a call on 0800 53 000 35, WhatsApp us or send us an email.

    Another tip: many bands offer smaller line-ups on request, so if you fall in love with a larger act who are out of budget get in touch with us to discuss your options. You never know!

    Almost all of our wedding bands provide high-quality sound and lighting equipment as standard. Unless otherwise specified, your band comes with everything they need to perform and even handle the setup for you! The equipment they bring will depend on the act (for example, an acoustic duo won't need a big sound system), so check their profile for details. All equipment is fully PAT-tested with certificates available upon request.

    There's no need to hire a separate DJ - most of our wedding bands include a DJ service as standard! This is usually a pre-selected playlist of music played through the act's equipment that the band knows will keep everyone in the party mood. Some bands offer a manned DJ option for taking requests. If you're after the full DJ experience, we've got a great selection of pro wedding DJs to choose from too!

    For evening wedding reception performances, your band will arrive at approximately 5-6pm, and once they've set up they'll be ready to get your guests up on the dance floor and keep them entertained all night long! The band will typically be with you all the way up to midnight.

    Some bands are happy to accommodate early arrivals or late finishes, usually with an added fee to cover their time. If this is something you need, be sure to let us know and we'll discuss the arrangements with your favoured acts prior to booking.

    Many bands offer optional daytime sets to provide music throughout the day. Options include chilled afternoon acoustic duo sets, laid-back lounge sets and even full roaming band sets, where the band will perform as they wander amongst your guests.

    You may also want to check out our range of daytime performers, which includes singers, singer-guitarists, acoustic soloists and duos, pianists, string quartets, sax players, jazz bands, brass bands and more.

    How long your wedding band takes to set up their equipment will depend on the intricacy of their set-up and ease of access to the venue (a parking space near to the performance area helps massively!). As standard, we'd advise to allow for at least 90 minutes to set up and sound check, giving your band enough time to be fully ready to get the party started!

    Standard wedding band performance times are usually 2 x 60-minute sets or 3 x 40-minute sets of live music. This can vary depending upon the band - some bands even offer optional additional sets - so check out each band's profile to find out what their package includes.
