Weddings
We love weddings. It is always a privilege and an honour to be trusted with providing live music on such a special occasion and we enjoy ourselves, almost as much as the couple, at every wedding we perform.
​
Charlie and the Funk Factory offer full day wedding packages to ensure you maintain the perfect atmosphere throughout your wedding day. From your ceremony to the drinks reception, dinner to the evening party, we've got you covered. All our packages include one free song request (e.g. for your first dance) as well as a high-end PA system, stage lighting and a sound engineer to make sure everything runs seamlessly.
​
We work with every couple right through from their initial enquiry through to the day itself to ensure you get the perfectly tailored package for you. Every wedding is unique and we relish the opportunity to bring your beautiful musical ideas to life on your wedding day.
​
We know that there is a lot of planning that goes into a wedding! To save dealing with multiple entertainment suppliers, we also offer options to integrate the hire of additional PA systems, lighting, dance floors, staging, backdrops and anything else you might think of into any of our wedding packages. Even if your heart is set on a having a unusual group of musicians for a certain part of your day, through the vast network of musicians across the UK we regularly work with, we are more than happy to help source and organise this for you too.
"Charlie worked with us closely to ensure our ceremony music, first dance and other surprises along the way were not only personal but perfectly executed"

"More than we even hoped for!"
​
"We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Charlie and the Funk Factory. We went for a whole day package which meant we had pianist for our ceremony, jazz quartet for drinks and then the full funk band for dancing. They are hugely talented and professional musicians and were so receptive to our requests, even adding a few songs to their repertoire for us! So many of our guests commented on how great a vibe they were!"

"A Fantastic Band"
​
"Professional, fun and created a fantastic atmosphere. Charlie and the Funk Factory were such a treat and proved a great way to finish off an evening! Singers and band provided music throughout the day and matched the atmosphere we were trying to create perfectly (from ceremony piano, to evening boogie!). Can't recommend them highly enough!"

Bryony and Matt
"Would recommend, no question about it!"
​
"We couldn't be happier with Charlie and the Funk Factory! They made such a huge difference to the atmosphere through-out our wedding day, from Charlie playing in the procession on piano, to the band's energy during the reception, which had everyone dancing through-out. We would recommend them without skipping a beat!
The whole process was seamless: Charlie helped us pick the songs, (for the reception, we left it entirely up to him and were not disappointed!) and we were really impressed by how the first dance turned out -- it's a song that's special to us, definitely not popular or well known, but Charlie and the band arranged and played it beautifully!
Thank you Charlie, and the band, for a wonderful performance and many lovely memories."
