Acoustic Duos
Two voices, a guitar, and a set that fits the quieter parts of the day: the walk down the aisle, drinks in the garden, a long lunch under the trees. Many duos also build up for the dance floor later on. Browse the videos, save the ones that sound like you, and we will check your date.

Acoustic Duos: what couples ask
Practical answers about pricing, timing and what to confirm before you book.
Which parts of the day suit a duo?
The ceremony, the drinks and a relaxed dinner are the natural home. Many duos also build to a fuller sound later in the night, so one act can carry a smaller wedding from the aisle to the last dance.
Can a duo play our first dance?
Yes. Send the song when you book and most duos will learn it if it is not already on their list.
How long does a duo play?
A ceremony booking usually covers the arrival music, the processional, the signing and the walk back out. Drinks are typically an hour or two. Reception bookings run in sets, like a band.
