Wedding Entertainment in West Sussex

Live wedding entertainment across West Sussex

Every couple wants something different from their wedding entertainment: a full live band to fill the dance floor, a solo singer for the ceremony, or an acoustic duo for the drinks reception. Whatever the format, weddings in West Sussex are covered on this page, in one place.

Across West Sussex, our wedding acts play country houses, barns, hotels and marquees in and around Petworth, Horsham and Crawley. Venues in the area include Fitzleroi Barn, Upwaltham Barns and Farbridge, 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.

Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied wedding entertainment for couples right across the country. The acts listed here all travel to West Sussex, bring the equipment they need and include travel in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

The essentials:

• Typical cost: from around £300 for a solo act to £1,200 to £4,000 and over for a live band
• Always included: PA, lighting where relevant and travel costs, in every quote
• From solo singers and acoustic duos through to full live bands, with line-ups sized to suit your venue
• Most couples book 12 to 18 months ahead for a summer Saturday, though solo acts and duos can often be booked closer to the date
• Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

A common pattern is a harpist or quartet for the ceremony, an acoustic act for the drinks, and a band or DJ for the evening. Share your running order when you enquire and we'll suggest acts for each part of the day.

Solo acts and duos usually start from around £300, DJs and smaller bands sit in the middle, and a full live band ranges from £1,200 to £4,000 and over. Summer Saturdays are the busiest dates. The price in your quote includes travel, so it won't change once you've booked.

Each act's page carries real video, audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how an act works a room than any description can, so it's worth watching two or three before you shortlist.

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.
