This package is everything you need to entertain your guests from the wedding breakfast till the end of the night. Music is what we have to socialize and brings people close together and creates emotions, the more atmosphere the better. Often couples have commented how they never thought it was possible to see guests singing along and dancing during the day. This is one of Matts most popular packages.

Wedding breakfast toast mastering

  • Matt will announce the bride and groom into the wedding breakfast to a song of your choice played on CD. Matt will introduce all speeches making sure all guests attention is fully focused on the top table.

Live singing during the wedding breakfast

  • Matt will sing two 20min spots. The singing spots will take place in between courses. 1 spot will be after the starter, the 2nd after the main meal. This formula works best, if you have between 40 and 120 guests then it can easily take 20mins for the venue to clear away plates and serve the next course. This time lapse is filled by music and keeps everyone entertained. Music during the day is relaxed, Rat Pack & Swing, easy listening. Songs such as 'Fly me to the moon' Frank Sinatra or 'Your Song' Elton John. Matt can either get the guests singing along and walk around using his radio microphone interacting with guests or stay stationary for a more background style of performance, or a combination of both, whichever you prefer.

Background music in between singing spot(s)

  • This is played on CD during the times when Matt is not performing, the music is specially selected to reflect the time of day and sustain the atmosphere.

Microphone for the speeches

  • Speeches are always a big park and are always looked forward to and are even better when you clearly hear what's being said. A microphone helps a room to hear each word and makes the speech so much better. It's great for nervous speakers and is a must in a large room.

Full disco for the evening with Matt as your DJ

  • This is a full request disco, you can request songs before the day or on the night. You may email a list of songs you like or leave Matt to control things for you.

Your first dance performed live to make it more special and personal

If you want Matt to sing your first dance then a few guidelines will need to be followed.

  • The song must be suitable for Matt's vocal range, you can discuss this with Matt and he will let you know by phone or email, or alternatively just fill it in here and we will let you know.
  • Matt must be able to find a quality backing track to sing to. Finding most tracks isn't a problem, the more popular the song the better chance of finding it.
  • The song must have been released in the UK or USA as a single within the last 40 years.
  • Songs must be originally sung by a male vocalist or male group.
  • Matt needs at least 4 week's notice prior to the wedding to learn the song for you.

99% of the time most songs are ok but Matt will let you know via email if the song of your choice isn't possible.
