Verified Review, 19 April 2026

"Jack played the violin at my husband’s funeral on Friday, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more. His music was beautiful and created such a special, emotional atmosphere for the service. He was incredibly respectful and sensitive throughout, which meant so much to us on such a difficult day. He also took the time to tailor the playlist exactly to what I wanted, which made it feel very personal and meaningful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and thoughtful musician. Many thanks Lisa xx"

FAQs about hiring Wedding breakfast musicians in Derry (Londonderry)

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any wedding breakfast musician play my favourite song?

Professional wedding breakfast musicians will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that wedding breakfast musicians may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the wedding breakfast musician's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do wedding breakfast musicians take to set up?

Your wedding breakfast musician will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the wedding breakfast musician prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our wedding breakfast musicians are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our wedding breakfast musicians will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
