Each wedding is unique whether it is an intimate affair
or a large gathering. You need to be confident that your
wedding entertainment requirements are fully understood and
that it will be delivered to the highest standard. With
Aubrey, you can specify the type of music, the first dance
and even a whole play-list that Aubrey will perform. The
stage show consists of state of the art sound technology and
lighting which allows Aubrey to choose any of his 5500
backing tracks at the drop of a hat. Below you will find an
example of artists and songs that Aubrey can perform, we
have also published an FAQ tailored for weddings. If you
have ANY songs in mind, just let Aubrey know and he will
make sure he can perform them for you on YOUR special day.
Wedding FAQ's
1. I'd like
to see Aubrey perform before booking, is this possible?
Yes this is possible. Please contact us so we can discuss the nearest gig to you and when it would
be appropriate for you to come. We can also arrange to send
out a demo CD or DVD.
2. How long does the act need to set-up?
We usually allow 1 hour to set-up. This leaves enough time
to cope with any problems Aubrey might encounter and to
ensure the volume levels are set appropriately.
3. Can Aubrey supply
background music or a disco?
Aubrey can
supply appropriate background music between sets (No
additional charge) or a ‘manned’ disco at an additional
cost.
4. Due to the schedule of the wedding, the room is only
free earlier on in the day - is this a problem?
No. This is a common problem and we are used to waiting
around after setting up.
5. Will the act require a
dressing room and refreshments?
A dressing room is a good idea as it means the Aubrey and
his crew can be out of sight when you're guests arrive, and
it is usually a good place to store all the extra cases,
boxes and costumes etc. As Aubrey usually has to travel to
the event, and will be waiting around once set-up, he and
the crew would be very grateful for any refreshments you
might provide.
6. How
long does he play for?
Ordinarily
2 x 45 minute sets. This is taken from an extensive list of
over 5500 songs and is usually tailor-made for your event,
depending on the age range and tastes of your guests.
However, should you wish Aubrey to play for longer, or
different timed sets (i.e. 1 1/2 hours solid / 3 x 1/2 hours
or any other combination or length of performance you
specify) this is not a problem and can be discussed with
Aubrey prior to the event.
7. Will the Aubrey take
requests or play our first dance?
Aubrey would be pleased to sing your choice of 'first dance'
song, providing he is notified within two weeks of the
performance. On the night, he will try his best to
accommodate any requests.
8. Does Aubrey provide the
sound system and lighting?
Yes. The latest digital PA system which can be adapted to
suit almost any size room. Lighting is also provided.
9. How much space will Aubrey need?
Aubrey will be as flexible as possible when it comes to all
matters involving your event. With regards to stage-size the
same applies, however it is advisable that a minimum space
of approximately 3m x 2m' is provided.
10. How far will Aubrey
travel?
The UK and into
Europe.
11 . How much does he cost?
Please email us
for a pricelist.
12. Are there any other
practical requirements we need to think about?
It is always a good idea to make sure there are enough
electrical sockets available. Three 13 amp sockets are a
sensible amount to work from.
Another factor to consider is access. If the room being used
is upstairs or a long way from vehicle access we appreciate
knowing this in advance. The same goes for open air
functions. We will need to know in advance if it is a
marquee and if there is good access for our vehicle (i.e.
appropriate road tracking if the ground is wet).
13. The venue that the event is being held at has asked that
the band / disco supply copies of their insurance and
electrical equipment P.A.T. certificates – What are these?
It is common these days for venues to ensure that any
outside contractor using electrical equipment on their
premises carry at least £5million public liability insurance
and they have a certificate proving that all their
electrical equipment has been tested for safety. We will
happily supply copies of both certificates to the venue on
request.
