Please can you tell me a little bit about your business?

By representing some of the Country's Finest Professional Musicians, all carefully handpicked, we're offering you the peace of mind you're booking first class entertainment, that your guests 'can't help but fall in love with.' Covering Classical, Celtic, Jazz, World, Opera, Pop and Rock styles we can cater for all musical tastes.
What type of services do you offer?
At Head Over Heels we understand that no two Weddings are ever the same, which is why we offer you a totally bespoke service. We will work alongside you from the early planning stages right up to your big day to create the finest package unique to you that truly represents your style and musical taste. If we do not have the specific act you are looking for, we will endeavor to source or put together one from the wealth of incredible musicians we have available to us. We pride ourselves on being able to provide all of your musical requirements, all under the one roof, saving you time and money making multiple bookings.
We can supply all of your musical entertainment from your Ceremony, through to your Drinks Reception, your Wedding Breakfast and your evenings entertainment.
We offer competitively priced rates, excellent customer service, a straight forward, efficient booking process and exceptionally talented musicians!
What type of venues have you performed at?

How does your service appeal to couples?
The benefit of being able to source all of your Entertainment for the entirety of your day in the same place, saves our clients time and money. Multiple act bookings not only benefit from a discounted rate but logistically the client only has to deal with one person regarding all their entertainment planning. We provide a comprehensive contract that will cover all the acts booked, and in the event of illness provide replacement bands or musicians at last minute, which direct bookings with artists cannot provide.
Booking with Head Over Heels also ensures you are getting absolutely first class entertainment, musicians that they very night before your Wedding could have been performing at The Royal Albert Hall, in London’s West End or accompanying a world-renowned artist.
What can your service add to a wedding?
At Head Over Heels we love a good romance and delight in the opportunity of playing a part towards your special day. We understand the vital importance of all those extra little details that help make your day just truly perfect. With our array of stunning Wedding Singers, elegant Musicians and energetic Wedding Bands we hope to be able to provide you with outstanding entertainment for your entire day, from start to finish.

All of our bands provide state of the art PAT tested PA and lighting systems and public liability insurance.
What advice would you give a couple when selecting a band.
The choice of band for a Wedding can be pivotal to the success of the evening. I would recommend firstly deciding on the style of music that you and your partner love and what best suits/represents you, be that a Swing Band, a Function Covers Band, a Rock Band or Ceilidh band?
Seek recommendations from friends and advice from a Music Consultancy like Head Over Heels Entertainment. We can provide you with video and audio clips from a variety of different bands to give you some inspiration. We also provide repertoire lists for all our bands so you can see if the songs you love are in their set lists. If you have a special song you would love to be played our bands are always happy to learn this for you.
There are so many bands on the Wedding scene at moment, but only a few that stand out as having WOW factor and are seasoned professionals at what they do. Make sure you ask to see bands testimonials or references, and read their biographies, where have they played before and for whom? How long have the band been performing together?
If you get the opportunity go and see your band perform live, and watch the reaction they are getting in the room, is everyone up dancing and singing along? Can you imagine them performing on your special day?!
We would love to sit down and talk you through your many options and line ups, and start helping you put together the little touches to make your day that extra bit more special.
