Camilla hired The AristoUkes for a Private event (available in Oxford)
"The AristoUkes put on the most fantastic performance at our wedding this summer. They were super flexible and worked with us to achieve our perfect plan, playing Brown Eyed Girl for me to walk down the aisle and then leading the whole congregation from the ceremony to the drinks party across the fields. Their music was perfect and everyone commented on how great they were, 100% would recommend to anyone - the perfect roaming band!! Thank you so much AristoUkes!"

FAQs about hiring Wedding Roaming bands in Oxford
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any roaming band play my favourite song?
Professional roaming bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that roaming bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the roaming band's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do roaming bands take to set up?
Your roaming band 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 roaming band 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 roaming bands 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 roaming bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
