Insider Tips for Manchester Weddings
​
After years of performing at Manchester weddings and events, here are a few things we'd always recommend:
​
-
Don't be afraid for your first dance to be around 8pm. Guests are usually ready to hit the dancefloor at this time, they';; be settled and possibly well 'oiled' and we will get them up with you immediately after the first dance, so make the most of that energy.
-
Consider where your evening guests will be arriving from. Giving them enough time to grab a drink before the band starts can make a huge difference to the atmosphere.
-
Speak to your venue early about sound limiters and setup times. Luxury venues all work slightly differently.
-
Bigger isn't always better. Some of our most memorable weddings have been intimate celebrations with an absolutely packed dancefloor.
-
Trust your suppliers. Cheshire is blessed with some incredible wedding professionals and working together is what makes an amazing day.
THINGS COUPLES ASK US ALL THE TIME
What do you need to know to book the perfect wedding band in Manchester
How much does a wedding band in Manchester cost?
Prices vary depending on the date, venue location and performance requirements. Get in touch for a bespoke quotation tailored to your event.
How much space do you need?
We're incredibly flexible and regularly perform in venues of all shapes and sizes. We'll happily advise on the ideal setup for your venue which would be 3M x 5M, but we have fit in to some very tight spaces, and can do due to the fact that we only have a 3 Piece rhythm section (as a 5 piece)
Can you learn our first dance?
Absolutely. If your chosen song suits our line-up and vocal style, we're always happy to discuss learning something special for your wedding, but sometimes your choice will be better sung by the original artist! and we facilitate that via our DJ service.

Do you travel outside Manchester?
Yes. While Manchester is one of our busiest areas, we regularly perform throughout Cheshire, Lancashire, Liverpool, Leeds, North Wales, the Lake District and across the UK.
Do you provide a DJ service?
Yes. We offer a Professional DJ service, which includes Pro Equipment; DJ Booth, Laptop, DJ Controller, and Gavin's 15 years experience of DJing at Events. This keeps the music flowing throughout the evening, and blends seamlessly from live set to DJing and back again.
Will you add additional expenses for travel?
Anything under roughly 45 minutes is fine, but for longer distances, we will add an appropriate but not extortionate amount to cover fuel. We don't use a 'per mile formula' for it either, as that way can become very expensive. This will be calculated and presented to you during the early stages of the booking process.
