Acoustic acts are the usual answer when a venue has a noise limiter or the ceremony is outdoors, since most can play with very little amplification or none at all. Ask how the band handles the quieter parts of the day: many will cover a drinks reception and dinner as a duo, then bring the full line-up out for the evening.

Soul Bands in United KingdomAcoustic bands in the United Kingdom play unplugged or lightly amplified, which suits ceremonies, drinks receptions and rooms with a sound limit. Most work from popular songs rearranged for acoustic instruments, and many offer a smaller line-up for the daytime and a fuller one after dinner.
Outdoor ceremonies, marquees and rooms with a strict noise limit are the obvious cases, because an acoustic set carries without a PA fighting the limiter. They also suit long events where the music has to sit under conversation for part of the day and lead it later. Ask whether the band brings its own small PA, since even acoustic acts usually want vocal reinforcement in a larger room.
Rates for a duo in the United Kingdom start at £120 and rise to £1,300+ for a five-piece with full instrumentation, with most bookings around £380. Line-up size is the main variable, followed by how many hours of playing you need and how far the band travels.
The average price is £380 (GBP), with most priced from £120 to £1,300+. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

The Cheers
"LOVED LOVED LOVED!!! We had this band for our wedding and they were brilliant! The female singers voice was phenomenal and we were so please we added the sax. The sound they made as a collective was brilliant. Also, good communication from Ben."
The Vows
"I HAVE NO WORDS!!! From the first moment I contacted the vows we have been blown away. They went above and beyond and exceeded every single expectation I had. The professionalism was more than I could have ever hoped for. They learnt and played a 5 minute special song that had us all in tears dancing to it that made it so personal to me. The choice of music was huge and they accommodated my every thought. Molly and Matt did an acoustic set outside before our wedding evening began and it was so upbeat and incredible we got taken to have photos done and I could hear them singing my favourite songs and I remember saying to my Husband, wow this is magical listen to it. Honestly blew us away we had the best night of our lives they were worth every penny and more I can’t thank Matt, Molly, Harry, Ambrose, Alex and Sax for the best night of our lives. Everyone around us commented how unbelievable the band were they hit every note and didn’t make one mistake despite 4 hours of playing. They work incredible well together and I honestly could not recommend the full band enough best decision I made booking them they really made our wedding!! IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BOOKING A BAND DO NOT HESITATE TO BOOK THE VOWS !!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!"

We are grateful to him for making the occasion unforgettable.
He is a charismatic individual who engages the people and gets them to dance.
Jason, thank you for organizing the celebration for all of us.
Best regards,

Luminous Duo
"We booked the Duo for our wedding in Barcelona. Before the ceremony the Duo were incredibly helpful and flexible in helping finalise the set list for our welcome drinks and cocktail hour and the equipment they would require. We were also fortunate that the Duo learnt our first dance song, sending over a demo well before the ceremony so that we could check that we were comfortable dancing to it.
On the day, both Nadine and Lumai were brilliant. They were exactly the style of performer we were looking for, with their bossa-nova sound setting the perfect atmosphere for our guests on their arrival and during our cocktail hour. We’ll always remember that we were fortunate enough to have a live band perform our first dance - thank you so much for making this happen!"
