Booking
When you book Beats Working for your wedding day or party, you can rest assured not only that you and your guests will enjoy an amazing evening of high quality musical entertainment , but also that the band will arrive quietly and promptly as agreed, set up quickly and professionally, and be ready to play when you and your guests are ready to dance. Your wedding reception, party or corporate event is in very safe hands.
The band has a vast amount of experience, playing and will engineer everything we do so that your day proceeds smoothly. We have played in marquees, in stately homes, boats, castles, islands and on indoor and outdoor stages of many different shapes and sizes.
First Dance
We are happy to learn and perform a first dance of your choice, adding a personal touch to your evening. In rare circumstances where your requested song does not suit our instrumentation, we are happy to provide playback of the original recording through our PA.
Set List / Playing Order
The set lists and running order will have been thought about, and carefully chosen to provide music that really flows together well for your guests to enjoy as they celebrate your big day. We will warm them up gently after the first dance, and soon have everyone on the dance floor. We pride ourselves on our ability to get everyone up and dancing and to keep them there as long as possible.
DJ & Background Music
To cover breaks between playing, you may require some pre-recorded music. We can provide this as part of our standard package and the songs that playback can be of our own wide selection, or provided by you. We can accept interval music on CD, memory stick, or MP3 player, or you can just lend us your pre-stocked i-pod on the night, which we can plug into our PA. We can use any device that outputs using stereo minijack, RCA (phono) plugs, or standard 1/4" jacks. If you require the specialist services of an actual DJ to cover breaks in live music, please ask us, and we will be happy to quote for, and arrange for a DJ to arrive with us. Alternatively, you are welcome to book your own DJ services independently of the band.
The band can offer different performance options:
Shorter Showcase Appearance: 1 x 45 or 2 x 45 min sets
Standard Option: 3 x 45 min sets
Extended: 4 x 45 min sets
Additional full DJ service as well as live music.
Testimonials
Just wanted to email to say thanks again for playing at our wedding. I'm sure we relayed how thankful we were on the night in our drunken states but just wanted to say it again! You guys were absolutely awesome and we got so much positive feedback from all our guests saying how amazing you were - I think the amount of people on the dance floor all night and the calls for more songs at the end of the night were evidence of that! We wouldn't hesitate in recommending you to friends. You really created the party atmosphere we were hoping for and we loved it all - so thanks again for an unforgettable wedding.

I'm just back from our mini-honeymoon and wanted to say thanks so much for playing at the wedding. The feedback has been pretty unanimous - everyone thought the band was incredible! You played some real classics and with a fairly well-educated audience, they definitely appreciated not only the brilliant sound but your technical prowess too! Thanks so much for being a key part of what turned out to be a perfect wedding day. I hear that the photographer has put another couple in touch with you after the wedding, so I hope you'll be making the trip over to Huntsham/Devon on a more regular basis!

Just a quick note to say a huge thank you to the band for playing at our wedding at Hill Place on June 1st! From the initial booking to the day of the event, the level of service from you guys were brilliant. On the night, i didnt even notice the guys setting up or leaving - the sign of a well oiled machine ;) The set list was great - learning the first dance song especially for us was brilliant, and sounded great! We really didnt want them to stop - so many of our guests have commented how fab they were! Please feel free to use this on your website etc! I just hope i have another event i can book you for soon :)
