Advice on booking your wedding band or entertainment...

Something we get asked regularly is 'when should we book our wedding band or entertainment...

...to be honest, we always advise as early as possible! With Saturdays being such a sought after date these days, Saturdays in a wedding bands diary are always the first dates to get snapped up. It's also worth noting that Fridays are a busy date in the calendar...
  
'I have a friend that has a band and they have offered to do it very cheaply...'

There is often a reason for this! Whilst your friends band may be successful in what they do, do they have the experience in choosing the right songs for the right audience? All of our wedding bands are either full time professional musicians or very busy semi-pro musicians, performing every week. They really do know how to get the party going due to the experience of performing at literally hundreds of wedding receptions.

'Why should I use an entertainment agency? I've heard it may be cheaper to book a wedding band directly?

This isn't neccessarily the case. We are here to negotiate the best possible price for you and booking through an agent provides you with additional safeguards should things go wrong. If an act has to pull out through illness or another unforeseen problem (highly unlikely) we'll work hard to find you a replacement, even if it's at the last minute. In the rare case that something goes wrong and as a third party to the contract between yourself and the act, we'll do all we can to rectify the situation.

It's not just wedding bands however that we deal with we have access to a large database of carefully selected solo vocalists, tribute bands, tribute acts etc. For more details why not visit our website at www.henderson-management.co.uk
