Fantastic Wedding Music
The Deputies create some of the best music around perfect for dancing and singing along at weddings or parties. They can provide varying line-ups depending on your budget starting with the standard 4-piece of guitar, bass, drums, keys and 4 lead vocals.

I just wanted to express my sincere thanks to The Deputies on what I can only say was the best day of our lives, you made our wedding so very special, you were total professionals & made sure that everything was just perfect! You are truly amazing at what you do, Thank you again. I would most certainly recommend you to everyone, I now need to find another excuse to have The Deputies perform again! Thank you once again, we had the time of our lives! Kindest Regards, Katie & Greg
Hi Barrie, We would just like to say a huge THANK YOU to you all for a fantastic evenings live music, far better than any disco!!! Just what we asked for, Fun & funky with no Abba. The band were superb, we had a great night and our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves commenting on how good the band were. Lots of dancing from young and old, some we were not too sure if they should have but at least they enjoyed themselves. Thank you also for accompanying us for our first dance, we loved every minute of it even though we forgot the moves :o) We would recommend the band to anyone. The Manager of the Hotel was impressed with the guys and has requested that we forward on details of website & email to him should they have need of or to recommend a live band. We wish you every success for the future. Regards, Robert & Racheal Harbord
Apologies it's taken so long to drop you a note, but my husband and I would just like to say a massive thank you to the band and for making our Big Day so magical. We had an amazing time, and you all did a fantastic job of getting the crowd going on the dance floor later on in the evening. I simply adored your choice of last song (Hey Jude). It's one of my favourite tunes of all time - I was delighted that you played it and it was a great send off to a fantastic night. We looked high & low for great live music and entertainment for our wedding and they were the solution. They quite simply rocked and made our wedding day very very special. Please pass our thanks onto all the band members and wishing you all the very best for the future. Kind regards, Andrea & Phil James
