Music is an important part of any wedding. It helps set the mood, it can be used to help guests feel welcome, and it can even help make sure that everyone is on the same page about what's going on at the ceremony and reception. But when do you need music at a wedding? Well, it depends on the kind of wedding you're having! Are you having a big ceremony with lots of guests? Are you just having a small ceremony with close friends and family? Are you going for an afternoon drinks reception or an evening dance party? The answers to these questions will determine whether or not music is needed at each part of your wedding day. Hand in hand with this are your desires for the big day itself, and the atmosphere you're looking to create at each stage of your wedding celebrations. Award-winning roaming band The Travelling Hands might just be the ideal, flexible and immersive entertainment you're looking for! Let's run through some times throughout your wedding day when music is particularly important...

Marriage is often something we take for granted. A beautiful celebration to mark the official joining of two people in matrimony. Be it religious or non-religious, a marriage is full of joy, happiness, and emotion that we remember for the rest of our lives, isn't it? As we look fondly over the photographs of friends and family and reminisce about the smiles and laughter. We were shocked and devastated when we learned that's not always the case. Did you know that every 3 seconds a child becomes a bride? That's 12 million girls a year. During our time in St Moritz earlier this year, we heard from the fantastic Clay Dunn & his mission at VOW for Girls , a charity set up to support children who are being forced into marriages, and put a stop to it. Their mission statement speaks for itself: "To end child marriage by building a connected groundswell of love and support for every girl whose right to own her future is at risk." - VOW for Girls And we certainly agree! We couldn't not get involved with their efforts! But what is child marriage?
Who needs snow at Christmas, when you can have sand? During our time at the stunning Rosewood Little Dix Bay earlier this year we donned our finest Santa hats (but stuck with our tweed suits, sort of...) and performed two Christmas classics for you on the sandy shores of the Caribbean. So if you'd like to see how The Travelling Hands do Christmas songs, this is the post for you!
