Weddings

The Maritime Brass Ensemble Band love playing weddings! Our years of experience means we can hold your hand and advise you on music for all aspects of your wedding day music. We can play carefully selected pieces or a selection of your choice at your wedding breakfast, wedding ceremony and of course, your wedding reception. We can provide not only our services as a brass ensemble but also organists and pianists to make your wedding day special.

Parties & Other Events

The Maritime Brass Ensemble play at weddings, dinners, anniversaries, birthdays, civic ceremonies – whatever the occasion, we’ll organise the music with you to suit the situation.
