Most people don't get the opportunity to experience an orchestra first-hand, and nothing compares to the sensation these colossal musical arrangements achieve. Radiating luxury and elegance, the mere sight of an orchestra arranged on stage imbues your big day with unrivalled glamour and romance. Whether it's a modern orchestra bringing new life to the classical genre or a dance orchestra using strings, keys, vocalists and guitars to craft euphoric arrangements of dance anthems, nothing compares to the excitement nor versatility of these mammoth performances - so there's not a chance you or any of your guests will ever forget the thrills they provide on your big day!
The sheer variety in the size and style of orchestras means it's virtually impossible to predict an average cost! Many things will affect the price of your orchestra from their popularity, to the distance they have to travel, and of course how many members make up the orchestra!
At Entertainment Nation we have smaller ensembles who start from around £800 and can be built up with additional players to your preference. A 5 piece classical string ensemble might cost around £1200. A world-class 11-piece orchestra could start from £5,000, with the option to add extra musicians as you wish - we've got orchestras that can be built to contain over 50 people for a full symphonic experience!
Whatever your budget, you can relax knowing the team here at Entertainment Nation are here to help you hire a wedding orchestra that'll make your dream day come true. Whoever you hire, you have the peace of mind knowing our in-house industry experts have vetted all our artists to make sure they're nothing but top-class professionals.
You might imagine an orchestra would perform elegant airs, extravagant concertos and intimate chamber arrangements, and you'd be right - but that's not all they're capable of! Classical style has reinvented itself for the modern age thanks to our fresh contemporary orchestras, and combining strings, woodwind and percussion, they create sensational renditions of uplifting pop and rock songs. You'll be rocking out to Bruno Mars, Coldplay and Katy Perry before you know it - making orchestras a versatile choice if you've got a lot of different guests to please!
Our orchestras have years of experience putting on extravagant shows for clients nationwide, so they know just how to excite the crowd on your romantic day. Smaller groups will likely even consult with you on learning your first dance, to make their performance extra special.
The incredible variety means the only way to know what you receive with your orchestra is to check their individual profiles or enquire. The larger groups will liaise with you on what to supply, as their performances will no doubt need to be individually catered for each venue. Smaller groups often provide their own PA and lighting and provide recorded music between sets. Other options might include manned DJ services for an after-party, additional sets, musicians, and special requests!
Planning your wedding day is stressful enough, so we've taken all the hassle out of organising your entertainment! All that stands between you and a quote for your dream wedding orchestra is a brief enquiry form. Once we have your details, we'll be in touch! With secure online payment and comprehensive contracts, you can book confidently with Entertainment Nation.
Excellent company from start to finish. When we initially enquired for a wedding singer we had very specific requirements for our wedding day. Having looked through the large portfolio of singers we found just the performer. We had everything lined up until a last minute change meant we had to change our singer. Entertainment nation were very responsive in their communication and extremely helpful. We owe a lot of thanks to these guys as they helped arrange a performer whom of which gave the performance of a lifetime, and truly made our wedding day a special occasion. Superb service and a company that massively cares about their customer's needs. Thanks again!!
