What are Singing Waiters?

Why should I book The Singing Staff?
Well, to put it simply, we are the best singing waiters in the UK. We’ve been in the Singing Waiters Business for over 10 years, and we really know our stuff. Don’t take our word for it though – check out our reviews here.
Whilst we know that there are some fantastic singers in the UK, we believe that there is a real science to being great singing waiters – from understanding the industry, to understanding the audience. Plus, ALL of our singers have been professionally trained and accredited to make sure that you only get the best in the business. We aren’t a big agency, and you’ll NEVER speak to a salesperson – only a singer, who will talk you through your event and how we can add a little bit of magic. With your booking, you’ll be sent a contract that protects you before you pay a penny, and we will do ALL of the venue liaison work, meaning you don’t have to do a thing!
Are you insured?
All of our singers come with their own Public Liability Insurance and PAT certificates, meaning you can rest assured we tick all of the right boxes for the venues!
When do I pay?
You pay a small deposit once you’ve signed a contract, and the rest you can either pay in interest free installments, or not worry about until the week before your wedding!
What songs do you sing?
Literally anything you want! From pop to rock, opera to musical theatre, soul to swing – we have some of the best singers in the UK who can cover every style. Not sure what type of music you want? Not to worry – we’ve got a sample list of classics that we know will work, and our singers can help you build the perfect set list to wow your guests.
