Fill the floor…

 

Whether it’s a string quartet playing you down the aisle, a singer for your drinks reception, or a rock band in the evening, music is a key ingredient to a great wedding.

Couples are welcome to bring in any band or DJ they so desire, but we’ve taken the liberty of listing a few of our favourites…

 

BANDS

This Leeds-based music agency provides a range of bands, DJs and musicians to events in the North, across the UK, and even globally! But it’s here at The Normans where their hand-picked talent often lands.

Singers

 
 
Musician Link Lewis plays the saxophone at The Normans, a Yorkshire barn wedding venue
 
 

Super-talented Lewis sings, plays a multitude of instruments (guitar, sax, piano), and DJs (very well). Lewis can play music for your walk down the aisle, the drinks reception thereafter and even keep the party going into the evening. Highly recommended.
