Show Notes
In today's episode, Georgie is joined by Dan — owner of one of the UK's most in-demand wedding bands... The Function Band, for an honest, funny conversation about the music and entertainment side of your wedding day, and everything that quietly goes wrong behind the scenes.
From building every playlist you actually need and decoding venue sound limiters, to speech timings, band riders, feeding your suppliers, and the open-bar mistake that cost one couple £50,000, this episode lifts the veil on how wedding entertainment really works — and how to get it right.
If you're looking for a UK wedding podcast with honest industry insight, practical advice on booking a wedding band, and realistic conversations about wedding music, sound and suppliers, this episode is packed with guidance for couples planning the entertainment for their big day.
This is OUR society, so please share your thoughts and ideas on socials, in the comments or by email at [email protected]

The Society is now open 🥳
Wedding planning can be lonely — 100 tabs open, the bridesmaid chat's gone quiet, and nobody really gets what you're going through. So we made you a little corner of the internet where they do.
The Society is our members' community for anyone in the thick of wedding planning. Inside: bonus episodes, helpful links, Q&A tutorials and loads of wedding gold — plus a whole group of brides to chat it all through with. Think of it as your own wedding workshop.
Less than £10 a month. Cancel any time.
