What is a wedding reception?

The reception is the party of the wedding: the couple's grand entrance, dinner, speeches and hours of dancing. At Asian weddings it is often the biggest event of all, with hundreds of guests in a banqueting suite or hotel ballroom.

We book the whole line-up: dhol for the entrance, a DJ and live drummer, Punjabi singers or a Bollywood band, bhangra or Bollywood dancers, a stage with AV and lighting, a photo booth and a mobile bar.

Where it works best

  • Step 1

    Dhol for the couple's grand entrance

  • Step 2

    A toastmaster or host to run the evening

  • Step 3

    Live singers or a band after dinner

  • Step 4

    Dancers to open the floor

  • Step 5

    A DJ with a live drummer for the party

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Time the entrance with the DJ

    Agree the entrance track and cue with the DJ and dhol so the handover is seamless.

  2. 2

    Book the singer for after dinner

    A live set straight after the meal brings everyone back to the floor.

  3. 3

    Check the sightlines

    Make sure the stage and dance floor can be seen from every table.
