The young collective of musicians are an absolute marvel with their covers of contemporary hits to classics from rock n roll royalty. George Ezra and Megan Trainor to Oasis, Pulp and The Rolling Stones, one of the best rock n roll covers bands today being A-List blitz through the decades in rip-roaring fashion and are bound to be an unforgettable live experience.

A-List were absolutely fantastic and had all our wedding guests on the dance floor all night. They were very lovely guys too, arrived on time and extremely professional throughout the night. They played our first dance song so well and no request was too difficult for them. We have had so many comments about the band which is great. All we can say is thank you so very much for making our evening so special!

BOOK THE BAND

Once you have decided that A-List are the band for you, Tailored Entertainment will send a booking contract to you to confirm the booking. The contract features all the important details for the day and once you have signed, the band will sign a copy and confirm the booking in their diary. We ask for a deposit to secure the booking, with the balance payable by bank transfer seven days ahead of the day.

PLANNING

In the lead up to the wedding you are very welcome to contact us any time to discuss the plan for the day. Around four weeks before the day the experienced team at Tailored Entertainment will contact you to go over the final details - timings, first dance, song requests for the disco or DJ, final payment details etc. All of the details will be recorded and sent to the band in one simple final confirmation email, so you can be sure nothing will get missed and everything discussed will happen as planned on the night.

ON THE NIGHT

A-List will arrive fully self-contained with PA, lighting and pre-mixed disco (or a band member can DJ if you add this to your booking) and will perform 2 hours of live music (2 x 60 or 3 x 40 minute live sets). The band will cover your whole evening of entertainment so you don't need to hire a separate DJ or any additional equipment.

If your evening reception is in the same room as the meal/speeches, the band would usually arrive to set up in the turnaround time between day and evening. If the room or area for your evening is separate (or curtained off) the band could arrive while you are eating to get set up (they would sound check when suitable and wouldn't interrupt the meal or speeches!) - it takes a minimum of 90 minutes for the band to get fully set up and sound checked.

A guide to a standard evening reception would be:

  • 17:30 - Band Arrive
  • 19:00 - Background Music On
  • 20:00 - First Dance/First Set (60 mins)
  • 21:00 - Disco/DJ (ideal time for evening buffet)
  • 22:00 - Second Set (60 mins)
  • 23:00 - Disco/DJ Until Close

Timings are flexible to suit your needs and live sets can be split 3 x 40 mins if you prefer.The standard price for A-List is based on them arriving at 17:00 earliest and finishing as late as 00:00. For an early arrival or late finish outside of these times, there is an additional charge.

The band are very happy to perform your choice of first dance for you as long as they have at least three weeks notice of the song choice.

A-List also offer a brilliant live lounge-style acoustic set, this is the perfect addition to your drinks reception and can really help set the mood for a great celebration. As the musicians are already booked to perform in the evening, the price of this set represents excellent value when compared to hiring a separate band for your daytime entertainment - it can be as much as 50% cheaper than hiring an equivalent act.

To discuss hiring A-List to perform at your wedding please call Tailored Entertainment for a friendly chat on 0800 564 2240 or email info@ultimateweddingband.co.uk.

A-List are based in the southern area, and regularly perform in the likes of HampshireDorsetNew ForestSurreySussexLondon as well as across the U.K.

“Oh wow, what an evening! A huge thank you to The A-List, they were absolutely brilliant, everyone said how fantastic they were! They got everyone involved and up and dancing, and created our DJ playlist perfectly. A big thank you to you Erin, and the Tailored Entertainment team for being an absolute pleasure to work with, nothing has ever been to much of an ask and your enthusiasm has made the process exciting for both of us.”
