“Thanks so much to the team at Tailored Entertainment and Tropic!! Communication was so quick and friendly throughout the 2 year build-up and made us feel we had all the info we needed and never really needed to ask any questions. On the day Tropic were so perfect for the vibe of our day! They just fitted right in and created the perfect tone during their acoustic set in the garden - and then totally lifted things in a way that meant guests were PROPER dancing for the party at the end which was just what we wanted to see - nobody looking awkward and polite :) We also really appreciated how flexible the band were when we went off track with our timings, and they accommodated this by doing one longer set for the last part of the night, rather than 2 shorter sets with a break in the middle. Would highly recommend them to anyone as would love a chance to see them play again!”

“We found our experience with Tailored Entertainment and Tropic to be completely faultless. Communication was always excellent, and we felt reassured every step of the way that we were dealing with consummate professionals. We were always confident, that even when planning a wedding during a pandemic, that we would be properly taken care of. Now as for the band, we are just so blown away by how talented they were. They arrived early on the day to get set up, and they were friendly and easy to talk to throughout. Their performance was just incredible. We had so many guests ask where we had found the band, and remark on how wonderful they were. They learned and played our first dance song, we weren't sure how this would translate to a three piece, but we were so thrilled to hear them play it so perfectly. We're a little sad that we won't get to hear their version ever again. They were confident without having an ego, and they built an excellent rapport with our guests. The dance floor was never empty when they were playing. We are just so thrilled. We would definitely book Tropic again, and we would recommend Tailored Entertainment to anyone. Thank you so much for making our wedding so special. I don't think we've ever had so much fun!”

They were lovely lads too; super-easy to deal with and very friendly. We could not recommend them enough and hope they had as much fun performing as we did listening to them. In fact, two of our guests were particularly excited as they have booked them for their own wedding in May and were delighted to have seen this preview. The experience with Tailored Entertainment was also exceptional; hands down the best supplier we dealt with during the wedding process. Thank you.”

FAQ

I really want to have a great party with everyone on the dance floor - are you the right band for that?

Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features modern day dance floor fillers to your favourite funk and pop anthems, so there's certainly something for everyone.

Do you take requests?

We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.

How long do you take to set-up?

60 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.

What time do you play?

At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.

How long do you play for?

We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.

Can you provide music for our drinks reception?

Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute full band acoustic set as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner.

What is the 'pre-mixed DJ service' that comes with the standard package?

The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?

Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.

What is the website guide price based on?

The published guide price is based on our 3-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Guildford. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hour drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Our venue has a noise limiter, can you work with that?

Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance and PAT tested equipment?

Yes.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

How much space do you require?

We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.

How much power do you require?

2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.

Do I need to provide food/drinks?

The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £25 pp rider buyout.

Can we see you play live before booking?

As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.

“Thanks so much to the team at Tailored Entertainment and Tropic!! Communication was so quick and friendly throughout the 2 year build-up and made us feel we had all the info we needed and never really needed to ask any questions. On the day Tropic were so perfect for the vibe of our day! They just fitted right in and created the perfect tone during their acoustic set in the garden - and then totally lifted things in a way that meant guests were PROPER dancing for the party at the end which was just what we wanted to see - nobody looking awkward and polite :) We also really appreciated how flexible the band were when we went off track with our timings, and they accommodated this by doing one longer set for the last part of the night, rather than 2 shorter sets with a break in the middle. Would highly recommend them to anyone as would love a chance to see them play again!”

“We found our experience with Tailored Entertainment and Tropic to be completely faultless. Communication was always excellent, and we felt reassured every step of the way that we were dealing with consummate professionals. We were always confident, that even when planning a wedding during a pandemic, that we would be properly taken care of. Now as for the band, we are just so blown away by how talented they were. They arrived early on the day to get set up, and they were friendly and easy to talk to throughout. Their performance was just incredible. We had so many guests ask where we had found the band, and remark on how wonderful they were. They learned and played our first dance song, we weren't sure how this would translate to a three piece, but we were so thrilled to hear them play it so perfectly. We're a little sad that we won't get to hear their version ever again. They were confident without having an ego, and they built an excellent rapport with our guests. The dance floor was never empty when they were playing. We are just so thrilled. We would definitely book Tropic again, and we would recommend Tailored Entertainment to anyone. Thank you so much for making our wedding so special. I don't think we've ever had so much fun!”

They were lovely lads too; super-easy to deal with and very friendly. We could not recommend them enough and hope they had as much fun performing as we did listening to them. In fact, two of our guests were particularly excited as they have booked them for their own wedding in May and were delighted to have seen this preview. The experience with Tailored Entertainment was also exceptional; hands down the best supplier we dealt with during the wedding process. Thank you.”

FAQ

I really want to have a great party with everyone on the dance floor - are you the right band for that?

Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features modern day dance floor fillers to your favourite funk and pop anthems, so there's certainly something for everyone.

Do you take requests?

We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.

How long do you take to set-up?

60 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.

What time do you play?

At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.

How long do you play for?

We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.

Can you provide music for our drinks reception?

Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute full band acoustic set as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner.

What is the 'pre-mixed DJ service' that comes with the standard package?

The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?

Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.

What is the website guide price based on?

The published guide price is based on our 3-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Guildford. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hour drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Our venue has a noise limiter, can you work with that?

Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance and PAT tested equipment?

Yes.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

How much space do you require?

We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.

How much power do you require?

2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.

Do I need to provide food/drinks?

The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £25 pp rider buyout.

Can we see you play live before booking?

As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
