A Boogie wonderland Our A-Z of wedding entertainment ideas IS FOR AGENT Take the hard work out of sourcing your wedding entertainment. Alice from entertainment booking service Entertainment Nation says, “How you want your day to feel is the most important factor when nailing your wedding entertainment. If you’ve always imagined a serene atmosphere with an elegant musical backdrop, a string quartet, singing guitarist or instrumentalist would be ideal to keep the drinks and chatter flowing. However, if something quiet and understated isn’t your vibe and you want everyone dancing and singing like no one’s watching, a pop, indie or rock band is a no-brainer. Perhaps a funky soul and disco band would go down a treat with you soul music lovers! Want to make your wedding unforgettable? Alternative entertainment like singing waiters and DJ live bands, known for getting the whole crowd involved, are stand-out options for a memorable wedding celebration that’s personal to you.
