Hatstand Opera: UK wedding music with flair for your wedding ceremony and reception

Choosing ceremony music for your wedding is one of the fun parts of any wedding planning, but what about the signing of the Register, or the arrival of the guests? And, of course, the entertainment at the wedding breakfast or reception? Never fear, Hatstand Opera take the stress out of planning your wedding music!
What a magical day this was for us at Brocket Hall. Your singing and performances were a joy and everyone enjoyed them. The setting, of course, made it so special, especially the part in the garden. ...The audience loved you all.

Rehearsing for your big day!
Your wedding music – sorted
We offer a complete package for your wedding, which includes a soloist (or more) at your ceremony and an entertaining show in between courses of your wedding reception sit-down meal. Our professional opera singers will add a special note of romance to any marriage ceremony, whether in church, or a civil marriage at your chosen venue. We also love being part of civil partnership celebrations too.
Thank you so much for some fabulous entertainment at our wedding. Everyone was so impressed and loved the pieces and fun you all provided. The songs you selected and sang during the ceremony were also wonderful and perfect for the occassion. Thanks again for helping to make our day so special and unique.
Let us entertain your wedding guests – while you relax!
The last thing any bride and groom want to worry about is the suitability of their wedding entertainment. Hatstand Opera will create a special opera-based performance to suit your guests, from the youngest cousin to the oldest auntie. We’ll keep the energy flowing by performing favourite opera highlights and fun songs in between courses of your reception meal. Or we’ll create a special cabaret show, so there’s always something new to talk to Uncle Fred about, apart from the bride’s dress, of course!
Music for Civil Ceremonies and Civil Partnerships

The requirements for music at church and civil ceremonies are different, and Hatstand Opera are happy to advise what may or may not be acceptable to your Registrar. Our experienced wedding singers have also a wide range of repertoire available, so do tell us your favourite songs!
Classical soloists for Wedding Ceremonies
Hatstand Opera only sing at wedding ceremonies where we are involved in BOTH the music for the ceremony and the wedding reception; we don’t perform just at the ceremony itself. Also, we don’t arrange or book other musicians such as string quartets or harpists – sorry! Try the Party Offers Wedding Directory for your other wedding requirements.
