Summery Styles of Wedding Entertainment
It’s hot and the drinks are flowing. Your guests are getting tipsy and relaxing in the summer sun, as you bask in the euphoria of being surrounded by your nearest and dearest on your big day and give thanks that the weather actually behaved.
How can you keep those feel-good, summer vibes going all afternoon? Here are some wedding entertainment ideas you may not have thought of that will make your special day that little bit more memorable.
Acoustic Guitarist
When guests are mingling, the last thing you want is for your background music to be too invasive. An acoustic guitarist could be just what you are looking for. Choose your own setlist if you fancy, and create a wonderful summery backdrop to your wedding afternoon shenanigans.
A Roaming Band
If you don’t want your band to be static or have a large space, why not consider a roaming band? Having a band wandering around is engaging and fun for your guests and could be perfect if you want to be a bit unconventional.
String Quartet
The lush harmonies of a string quartet will provide an intimate and passionate accompaniment to your wedding. Quartets can play anything from Mozart to The Prodigy and will add a touch of class and elegance to your celebration.
New Orleans Brass Band
The distinctive sound of a dynamic New Orleans style brass band will get toes tapping as their infectious energy gets the party started! Time to break out the bourbon and dig out your dancing shoes!
Magician
Sit back and listen to the delighted oohs and ahhs of your guests as they are amazed and astounded by incredible tricks. A magician is a fun way to break the ice between guests who have never met and will keep your guests entertained all afternoon.

Saxophonist
Ibiza-style sultry sax melodies pair perfectly with chilled drinks and conversation. If you’re more of purist, these versatile musicians are able to effortlessly switch moods and perform cool jazz standards, classical refrains or laid-back pop tunes.
A Steel Band
Want to create a beachy, tropical vibe? A steel band tinkling away in the background is not only relaxing, but is also evocative of far-away, golden sands. Rum anyone?
