Meet The Honeymoons…

5 or 6 piece: The band can include either a tenor saxophone player or fiddle player or better yet, both.

Background Dinner Set: If you wish, incidental background music can be played while you enjoy your buffet.

Ceilidh Section: The band can also provide a Ceilidh section (with calling), the length of which varies as per set up.

Disco: They can host a disco at the end of the night. Their P.A. and lighting system are state of the art.

The band will happily take requests for 1st dances or even just to surprise someone. Generally speaking, four weeks notice is required and they’d delighted to learn a song that is special to you both or if you prefer, they can play it from a CD or in MP3 format though the P.A. system.

The Honey Moons will tailor your evening’s entertainment around you and will happily cater for any special requirements. They are always happy to answer any of your questions so please get in touch.

The Honey Moons are based in Edinburgh and frequently play throughout the central belt and borders and are happy to travel for events.

Their standard wedding performance time is three x 60 minute sets with breaks. This usually covers an 8/9pm – midnight slot but they can be pretty flexible with the set times and will always work around client schedules.
