The act
An acoustic rock reception could have plenty of movement with The Velvet Helmets, whose performance aims to get guests dancing. They put their own interpretation into classics from earlier years through to the present, giving your wedding music an acoustic approach across different periods. You can choose two, three, four or five members, depending on the ensemble you would like at the centre of the celebration. Listen for their treatment of the songs, then enquire about the band size and musical choices that would make the reception feel like the evening you have been imagining together.

Good to know
What to expect
Acoustic instruments, but not a quiet night. The Velvet Helmets play rock songs most people in the room will already know, and they play them with enough push that the dance floor fills the way it would for a full electric band. That is the whole point of the act. You get the warmth and clarity of acoustic playing without losing the energy, and the song choices stay firmly on the familiar side rather than drifting into anything obscure. Expect people up and moving well before the last set.
