Tailoring Your Musical Moments:
Every wedding is unique, and so should its music. Some couples prefer simplicity, while others desire particular songs for specific moments. Whichever your preference, we are committed to creating a musical ambiance that mirrors your personality and the tone of your event.

The ceremony marks the beginning of your journey together. Here's how we can fill each moment with the perfect song:
-
Prior to the bridal party arriving: We'll set the stage with serene and gentle tunes that build anticipation.
-
Bride's walk down the aisle: This magical moment calls for a beautiful song to mark the start of a new journey.
-
While the couple sign the register: We'll transition to a reflective tune as you formalise your union.
-
During the recessional: A joyous and uplifting song will accompany you as you step into your married life.
-
While the couple have their photos taken: Engaging background music will keep your guests entertained during your photo session.
For the Reception:
The celebration continues at the reception, and so does our music:
-
Arrival of the bridal party: We'll welcome the bridal party with a lively, joyful tune.
-
Arrival of the newly-weds: Your grand entrance will be highlighted with a song that mirrors your shared joy.
-
First dance: A song special to both of you, will set the tone for the night's festivities.
-
Father-daughter and mother-son dances: These poignant moments will be accompanied by touching and emotional songs.
-
Dance party: As the night progresses, you might want to liven things up. We can take care of this by playing high-energy tracks from a streaming platform such as Spotify, using your playlist or one we create just for you.
The Party Band Experience
If you're looking to add an extra dash of vibrancy to your celebrations post-dinner and speeches, our fabulous party band is at your service. Comprising piano, drums, and additional vocalists, this four or five-piece band promises to make your wedding a night to remember.
DJ's - streamed music:
We don't claim to be DJs' but can certainly stream songs for you. At many events we start the night while guests are arriving by streaming selected music that has been tailored by us espectially for your event, or a playlist that has been curated by our client. At the end of the night we might also add a 'banging' set of streamed dance music - night club style! And of course we stream music during our short breaks.
Set up Requirements:
Our duo can fit into a relatively small area of about 3m by 3m, with speakers placed in appropriate locations around this.
We provide a high quality QSC sound system including excellent speakers, mixing desk , microphones and associated equipment, leads etc. Space required for a 4 piece band will be around 4 x 3m.
Setting up usually takes an hour (or one and a half hours for the band), including sound check. Packing up is around 30 minutes.
Our only critical requirement is a power point within 10m approx, and shelter from inclement or hot weather.. If you are having an outdoor wedding where there is no power - no problem! Let us know this and we can hire a battery pack!
Set List
Contact us for a set list that we will tailor specifically for your event! Weddings are speciality - please refer to the information provided above regarding the points during the wedding that you might want to select specific songs for.
​
We play re-mixed versions of songs from the 1950's to the current day. We often receive comments to say that our versions provide a completely new approach, - we sound fresher and more classy! This is due to the quality/sophistication of our sound, musicianship, and the attention we pay to getting our arrangements right. We tend to avoid playing the songs that you hear over and over, in favour of choosing songs from well known artists, that are less often heard.
Our extensive repertoire features popular songs from the past four decades, including current artists like Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, King Princess, Elliott Smith, Jon Bellion, John Mayer, Counting Crows, Feist, Jack Johnson, Missy Higgins, Justin Beiber and many others. We have also selectively sourced, classics from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and beyond, including Prince, James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac, Michael Jackson, Carole King, The Animals, Spencer Davis Group, Coldplay, The Eagles, The Beatles, Roxette, etc. and many more. This ensures that everyone, young and old, will enjoy singing along to their favorite tunes.
Amongst these there are plenty of upbeat songs, but also alluring melodic pieces that are ideal for more intimate venues, cocktail functions, wine bars etc.
