Live Music

Believe Punch The Air when we say there is nothing better than live music at a wedding reception, birthday party, function or corporate event. It’s all very well just hiring a DJ for the whole event as they CAN sometimes be great. And it is a cheap option too. But generally there’s no real UMPH is there when a DJ just plays some music off their laptop. What would be better than having all your favourite songs performed live by a professional live band?

Imagine being at a concert where you get to feel and hear:

The Wedding Ceremony

Wedding Supplier

A wedding supplier will provide you with services or products you need to purchase to make your wedding reception unique and perfect for you. With hundreds of wedding suppliers and wedding bands out there it can be very daunting on who you should choose to part your money with. Always choose well established companies who can prove their credentials to you both through social media AND from their own website. Anyone (And we mean anyone) can make a Facebook page and claim to be a business. It literally only takes a few seconds to create a Facebook page and start “Playing” at being a business.

What you should look for when choosing a live band for your wedding reception.

What does take much more effort is building and maintaining a well developed website and creating quality video content. If a company isn’t willing to take the time to do this, then chances are they’re not going to 100% deliver on their promises to you either. Professional wedding band ‘Punch The Air’ have all this and so much more. We’ve been a wedding supplier of live music since 2013 and have amassed over 160 reviews during this time. Our quality, well built, fast website proves to clients what we’ve achieved over the years. And what we continue to achieve on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis. Hundreds of gallery images, hundreds of live videos. All of which add up to something no other wedding band out there can compete with. If you’re considering another wedding band to Punch The Air when was the last time they updated their images or videos? It won’t be as often as we do. We are constantly proving our credentials as much as possible.

Search our website and you’ll find dedicated pages for just about every topic you can think of regarding wedding reception bands and what we supply. We have performed at over 500 events both privately and publicly. So we know how to handle brides, grooms and party guests of all sizes.

Choose a band with history who have years of experience at weddings.

We’ve encountered everything over the years since forming in 2013. We’ve made it through power failures, burst water pipes, fires and so many more catastrophes. Each and every time we’ve always managed to keep the wedding music going and complete the task of giving our clients the best in live wedding entertainment. The show MUST go on, it simply must and AWAYS WILL with Punch The Air.

We will arrive promptly at your wedding and set up our equipment with practically no noise at all. (If you didn’t see us, you may not even notice we’re there). We will work to your schedule and even advise you if things might work better jiggled around a little. You can expect the highest professional attitude from our wedding band. All the way from initial contact to weeks after your wedding is over. While working as your wedding reception band you can expect two high energy performances (Or one long performance if you require) helping to lift the spirits of guests on what can sometimes be quite a long and tiring day.

We’ll put the energy back into the room to give you a wedding you’ll never forget for the rest of your lives. All the while we’ll be smiling back at you as you dance and sing your hearts out to our live performances.

Included in our wedding supplier fee is:

Full PA system.
Lighting for the stage area and dance-floor
No “Agency Tax” – Saving you £200+ for the exact same job.
iPad DJ services.So you won’t need to hire in any third parties saving you money and time. We have lots of additional extras for you to choose from too such as adding a female singer to our line up. Also evening photography services, fog machine hire, projector hire and more.

Buying and booking with a wedding supplier.

How should you choose a wedding supplier or wedding band?

Speak to friends and family ask for recommendations.
Check reviews of your wedding supplier both on social media and on Google Reviews.
Make sure your wedding supplier updates their content regularly with QUALITY NEW content. So not just a repost of something they posted months/years ago. This way you will see they are an active company constantly out working at current weddings.
Have you seen a wedding band at a previous friend or relatives wedding reception? Were you suitably impressed by their high energy live performances? If so why not book them for your wedding party too. Most of our wedding work comes from previous clients guests. We feel this speaks a lot about the type of professional performances we put on.

Contact a wedding supplier for live music at your wedding reception to check on price and availability for your special day.

How it all happened

We had no idea that Ms Langhorne was exhibiting at the same wedding fair as Punch The Air. As she was across the other side of the field in a tipi tent. Towards the end of the event she wondered over to our little staged area. There, she casually watched us for a few songs singing a dancing along to our live indie repertoire. We didn’t actually know who she was at all. But Andy thought it would be fun to ask her up on stage with us anyway even though he didn’t know if she could sing in tune or not. Eventually we managed to coerce her onto the stage not knowing anything about her musical talents. Watch Pippa Langhorne on stage with us.

Female vocals

Sometimes the most amazing things happen purely by coincidence and this was one of those days where anything could have occurred.

An important note about The Walled Garden at Beeston Fields wedding venue:

The Walled Garden wedding venue have a very strict decibel limiter there. Even with an electronic drum kit it is impossible to perform at a volume that is akin to the kind of impact you’d expect at a wedding. We therefore recommend our acoustic wedding band package for this venue.

Wedding Entertainment

For some bizarre reason wedding entertainment seems to be one of the last things brides & grooms tend to think about. Sure, they have a lot to think about understandably. They book the venue, the ceremony and the photographer then what do most people do? They start to think about the fun, personalised small things (that if you think about it, don’t really matter in the grand scheme of things). Dress hangers with names on, flip-flops for the dance-floor, table decorations etc. But what they really should be doing in our options is looking at booking live wedding entertainment as the third, or even fourth big thing to sort out. Contact Andy Starkey to hire Punch The Air wedding entertainment.

What guests remember most about a wedding is as follows:

What you looked like.
Then what the venue was like.
What the food was like.
And what the wedding entertainment was like.

and not even in that order (apart from the first point) Believe us, we know this from previous experience speaking to clients at many hundreds of weddings.

Was everyone up dancing all night long really letting their hair down? Was everyone singing and shouting along to the bands amazing repertoire? Were the band a high energy wedding band able to engage with the audience and have them eating out of the palms of their hands? This is the exact type of wedding entertainment band that ‘Punch The Air‘ are.

Booking live wedding entertainment.

You may have had your eye on a specific band for a long time, but not got in touch with them yet. The problem is that although your date is one specific day to you, it’s a date that many other brides and grooms will also want to book your wedding entertainment band for. Your wedding band can only perform at one wedding each day, so they may already be booked out at another wedding clients reception party….Argh nightmare scenario!!!!

Advice on hiring a wedding band

So our advice (Coming from having been an established wedding band since 2013). Is to start to look to book wedding entertainment as soon as you can. If you really-REALLY like a wedding reception band then check if they are available on your date before you even book your ceremony and venue. You could work along side your party band while working out your potential dates to make sure they are 100% available to you. Otherwise definitely check to book a wedding function band as soon as you’ve confirmed your wedding date and venue. Otherwise you may find yourself unhappy at having to choose the band who weren’t your first (Or possibly even second) option.
