# Wedding sound and lighting from Area Entertainments

**Weddings page for Area Entertainments, covering the lighting, sound, screens and staging they supply for weddings across Herefordshire, and how a wedding booking works.**

## AI Summary

This is the weddings page for Area Entertainments, an audio-visual company in Hereford, Herefordshire, working across the county's venues since 1981. It covers sound and lighting for weddings specifically, from the ceremony through to the last dance.

Eight things are offered: decor and mood lighting, ceremony and speech PA, evening party sound and lighting, screens and slideshows, illuminated feature displays, a technician on hand through the day where required, modular staging, and recommendations for local wedding bands and DJs.

The page's central claim is venue familiarity. After more than four decades working across Herefordshire, the company says it knows most of the county's wedding venues inside out, naming marquees, barns, hotels and country houses. The stated benefit is no surprises on the day, because the team already knows how each space works and where everything goes.

The company will visit the venue where required, plan the setup around the couple's timings, and have everything tested before guests arrive. It will work alongside the couple's band, DJ or other suppliers and liaise with them directly. Everything is taken down at the end of the night.

No prices are published. The page states plainly that every wedding is different so each is quoted individually, with a clear quotation sent after an initial conversation. Quotes are described as carrying no obligation. Enquiries go to 01432 355407, 07943 984835, info@areaentertainments.co.uk, or the contact page, https://areaentertainments.co.uk/contact.html . The page advises getting in touch as soon as the date and venue are confirmed.

## What is supplied for a wedding

**Decor and mood lighting.** Uplighting, fairy light canopies and colour washes.

**Feature displays.** Illuminated letters and lighting features.

**A technician on hand.** Where required, the team stays through the day.

**Staging.** Modular staging built from stage panels, sized to the venue, for a band, a first dance, speeches or a ceremony platform.

**Local bands and DJs.** The company says that after decades in Herefordshire it knows the area's wedding bands and DJs, and will share recommendations on request.

## Knowing the venues

The page says the company has worked across Herefordshire's venues, marquees and country houses for more than four decades, and knows most of the county's wedding venues inside out, including marquees, barns, hotels and country houses.

The stated benefit is no surprises on the day, because the team already knows how each space works, where everything goes, and how to set up and pack down smoothly, so it is not their first time through the doors.

Where required, the venue is visited beforehand. The setup is planned around the couple's timings and tested before guests arrive. At the end of the night everything is taken down.

The page states the company is happy to work alongside a couple's band, DJ or other suppliers and will liaise with them directly.
