Your Yorkshire Wedding - November/December 2020 (Issue 45)

FLOWERS 49 MUSIC AND ENTERTAINM NT Hannah Faulder rounds up the region’s top entertainment acts P lanning a wedding is hard work – especially as not many people have experience of organising such a large-scale event. My husband and I found entertainment one of the toughest things to tick off the wedding to-do list; we felt the pressure of keeping all of our family and friends happy. If you feel the same, don’t worry! We’ve selected some of the best entertainment acts in Yorkshire for you to check out. Remember, your guests are there to celebrate you as a couple – so choose what you love. If you’re enjoying yourself, everyone else will!
