I don’t know about you but I just love a wedding with live music and entertainment. It creates a real party atmosphere like nothing else. If you are thinking of booking a brilliant band for your party, then I recommend checking out Function Central<\/a>. They have just about every style and genre of musician to make your reception personal and fun.<\/p>\n

Let’s get to know them a little better….<\/p>\n

 <\/h1>\n

Hi Function Central, could you firstly tell WWW readers a little bit about you?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re a leading wedding music booking agency. We\u2019ve sought out the very best wedding bands<\/a>, musicians and DJs from all across the UK so you don\u2019t have to!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Every act\u2019s profile on our site is packed with audio demos, pictures, videos and reviews, to help you make an informed decision about which act to book. We have hundreds of hand-selected live music acts available, searchable by price, genre and location.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

What do you love\/dislike about your job?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

First and foremost, we never get bored of reading glowing testimonials from our customers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Secondly, we often book live music for celebrity weddings or other high profile events, which are always fun. Highlights were Paul McCartney\u2019s office booking a gypsy jazz trio for his garden party and 19 Management booking a function band for a surprise birthday party for David Beckham.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did you get into entertainment and into the wedding industry?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

We started out as a humble two-man show with only one function band on the books \u2013 our own. We\u2019re now a team of ten, working with the very best bands, musicians and DJs available from London to Manchester and beyond.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/h1>\n

What do you aim to achieve for your clients?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

We want our bands to deliver real \u201cwow\u201d factor to our clients\u2019 events and exceed all expectations!<\/p>\n

Any special offers you’re running or discounts you’d like to offer my readers?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

A few of our bands are currently offering a laptop DJ service completely free of charge, for bookings confirmed within 7 days of an initial enquiry. This is a professional-standard service where a band member will DJ before, between and after band sets, using a laptop equipped with virtual DJ software and thousands of songs, saving you on the cost and hassle of hiring in a separate DJ.<\/p>\n

A lot of bands offer low rates for off-peak months and weekdays.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"jive_band_central_live_bands_djs\"<\/p>\n

What style are your artists?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Aside from our knock-out roster of hip young wedding bands we offer all sorts of \u201calternative\u201d musical entertainment, from vintage 20s bands to 1980s synth-pop, to bluegrass, reggae and Bavarian oompah!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Could you tell us some information about your packages\/prices?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Guide prices are available on the website, but customers will need to put through an enquiry including venue address and event date, in order to receive an accurate quote.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
