About

Meet The Marquees

The Marquees are an award-winning wedding band known for packed dancefloors, exceptional musicianship and unforgettable live performances at celebrations across the UK.

With more than 10 years of experience, the band knows that every wedding is different. Rather than arriving with a fixed setlist and delivering the same show each night, The Marquees work closely with every couple to create an evening that feels completely personal.

Their repertoire spans decades of incredible music, with a modern indie, rock and pop edge alongside soul, Motown and dancefloor classics. The band combines proper live energy with the experience to read the room, bring generations together and keep the dancefloor full.

Couples have plenty of input into the live sets. They can share the artists they love, the songs that matter to them and the styles they would like the band to lean into. The Marquees are also happy to learn a selection of special requests, making the soundtrack to each wedding unmistakably personal.

The Marquees offer a choice of outstanding four-, six- and eight-piece line-ups. Additional entertainment can include ceremony music, daytime acoustic performances, a manned DJ service and a DJ with saxophone experience, allowing the music to flow from the first guests arriving through to the final song of the night.

Each evening package includes:

• Up to two hours of incredible live music
• A choice of live-set format
• Professional sound and stage lighting
• Music between the live sets
• Personalised song choices and special requests
• Travel included within the agreed quote

Send The Marquees an enquiry and tell them what is planned. They would love to help create an unforgettable night for every couple and their guests.
