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.

Tips from our team
- 1
Time the entrance with the DJ
Agree the entrance track and cue with the DJ and dhol so the handover is seamless.
- 2
Book the singer for after dinner
A live set straight after the meal brings everyone back to the floor.
- 3
Check the sightlines
Make sure the stage and dance floor can be seen from every table.
