Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding- February / March 2021 (Issue 25)

 Stroud-based Bees Knees Barn Dance Band have plenty of experience playing at weddings. Accordion player Norma tells us that this type of wedding entertainment can be enjoyed by all ages making celebrations a truly memorable experience. She says, "I can provide solo background music on the accordion at any moment during the event and for small gatherings, we can perform with just two (married) people playing the accordion and guitar. In between dances we play a selection of traditional and well-known tunes."

He tells us, “when working with clients planning their big-day entertainment, I like to get to know them and the type of wedding they are planning so I ask them a few questions to start. Why have they chosen their particular wedding theme? Do they want their guests to be dressed in the chosen style and how many guests are they expecting? The trend for micro weddings at the moment doesn't mean that entertainment has to be on a small scale – we offer everything from solo singers to a full seven-piece band. It's important not to forget about the music and entertainment during the ceremony and drinks reception as well as the wedding breakfast and evening event. A solo singer performing the Bridal Chorus in a 1950s theme or a vintage trio like The Candy Girls all dressed up can make a wonderful choice for during the ceremony. Party LIKE IT'S 2021!
