    5Does the band need us to provide any equipment?

    No, we will provide everything.

    All we ask for is a sheltered, flat surface to perform on with a space approximately 6m width x 3.5m depth and 2 x standard domestic plug sockets.

    If you are having a large event of 200+ guests please get in touch as we may have to use our larger PA system to ensure it is powerful enough.

    6Where in Chester have you performed previously?

    Firstly Chester is an amazing place to have your wedding with a large array of venues to choose from.

    We've performed in a wide range of Chester venues including: Old Palace Chester, Cheshire View, Carden Park, Oddfellows, Abode Chester, Chester Zoo, The Chester Grosvenor, Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel, Chester Racecourse, The Chesterfields, Clawdd Offa Farm, Rowton Hall Hotel & Spa and DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Spa Chester to name a few!

    7Can you play our First Dance Song?
    As long as decent time permits and we have enough availability for rehearsal time we'll always gladly look at playing your First Dance. However if for any reason we don't feel we will do the song the justice it requires we will always be able to play it though our PA system.
    8What time does the band usually arrive to set up?
    Our quotes are based on a usual arrival time of 6pm. If we are setting up in a room separate to the meal and speeches we will be able to setup right away, however if it is in the same room we will have to wait until the space is made and wait until meal and speeches are finished to avoid any interruptions.
    9What time do you start playing?
    We're happy to work with you on this. The usual protocol is for the group to start no earlier than 8.30pm/9.00pm in order for the band to not peak too early on your big night.
    10How long does the wedding band take to setup?
    We usually like to have a minimum of 1 and a half hours in order to setup and soundcheck. This gives us plenty of time to make sure everything is right and deal with any potential unforeseen issues.
