Our wedding bands regularly perform at venues across Berkshire, from Reading and Windsor to Newbury and beyond.
Berkshire is the county that gave us the Reading festival, the oldest rock and pop music festival in the world, is a fitting place for a raucous musical knees-up.
Our wedding bands have played in all major centres across Berkshire, including Slough, Bracknell, Maidenhead, Wokingham, Newbury, Woodley and Windsor.
We've also sent wedding bands to smaller towns and villages including Thatcham, Sandhurst, Crowthorne, Twyford, Wraysbury, Sunninghill, Hungerford and Datchet.
Of course, if you prefer the refined to the raucous that's possible too. Berkshire has a host of beautiful wedding venues fit for the upper classes. From the Royal Ascot Racecourse to Eton College, our bands have seen them all.
Some of our favourite venues in the area include Highclere Castle, Clivedon, Monkey Island, Ufton Court and the Royal Adelaide Hotel.
In addition to evening reception, we can provide talented Berkshire wedding musicians for your ceremony, drinks reception or wedding breakfast.
Hire a classical guitarist to perform for your ceremony then a wedding jazz trio for your drinks reception.
Later on, warm up your guests for the main act with a wedding singer.
All of our Berkshire wedding bands come fully equipped with professional sound systems and lighting, so you don’t need to hire anything separately.
This works really well for most marquee or indoor weddings.
Let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests or are planning an outdoor or garden wedding, so we can check whether the act’s system is suitable.
Most bands will also bring lighting for both the stage and dancefloor.
Most of our Berkshire wedding bands are happy to learn and perform your first dance song to make your moment even more personal.
Check the act’s profile to see what they can offer and if they can’t do it live, they could just play it through their PA system using Spotify or an mp3 player.
We offer a wide variety of function bands in Berkshire, including ceilidh bands, jazz ensembles and steel pan groups for different styles of celebration.
