About

Hire the best singers, bands and musicians with us at Boogie Oogie Entertainment. Based in Essex and run by a professional singer, our entertainment agency covers Essex and all surrounding counties. Many of our acts will travel all over the country! Browse through our range of entertainers to find the entertainment you need for your wedding day.

Whether it be a live jazz pianist for your ceremony, an acoustic duo performing chilled-out love songs for your drinks reception, or a super-duper soul band blasting brass & fronted by a disco diva for your evening party, then we've got you covered! We can tailor-make a package to suit you for the whole (or just a part) of your special day.

Live music can help to make your wedding ceremony so much more personal. Our live musicians can learn the songs that mean so much to you as a couple. For example, a live singer could perform a stripped-back acoustic version of the song that was playing when you popped the question as you walked down the aisle. Or, have you considered a live pianist playing instrumental versions of special songs as you sign the register? A ceremony package will usually consist of...

  • Thirty minutes of live music as your guests arrive.
  • Music of your choice to accompany the bride as they walk down the aisle.
  • 2 or 3 pieces of live music as the happy couple sign the register.
  • Music of your choice as the newlywed couple walk back down the aisle.

After the ceremony, many couples choose to have live music to keep their guests entertained while the photos are taking place. Some will choose to go with a musician who can blend perfectly into the background so that guests can listen but also mingle and enjoy their conversations with friends and family. An acoustic singer/guitarist is the perfect choice here. You may also want to consider a musician who can play outside easily if you are having a summer wedding.

Other couples might choose something a bit more lively and louder, perhaps a roaming band or saxophonist who can wander among your guests and really entertain them during the downtime.

With the formalities over, this is the part of the day where you'll really want to let your hair down & party the night away!

Whatever style of music you're into, we'll have the band for you, from Motown, Soul, and disco with loud brass & funky singers to Indie Rock bands & everything else in between.

Our bands will be happy to learn your first dance for you & our singers are always happy to make announcements on the microphone such as the cutting of the cake & the opening of the buffet!

All of our bands will also provide you with a complimentary playlist so the party can keep going throughout the night. Some of our bands can even provide a manned DJ package for that extra special touch.

We have something for everyone, and with years of experience in the Music Industry, we are happy to discuss and talk through all options so that you get the perfect musicians for your special day.
