THE MARIONETTES - THE GLAMOUR OF THE 1940'S AT YOUR WEDDING!

Our vintage wedding fair wouldn't be the same without the music of The Marionettes - the fabulous Bristol-based 1940's 3-part harmony trio.


If you're looking for vintage entertainment these ladies are the bees knees, with an amazing repertoire of mainly 1940's songs, as well as some modern classics and their showreel gives a great taste of what they do.


Their sets ooze the glamour and romance of a bygone era and these gals always look stunning as you can see from their gallery.


The Marionettes will be performing at The Blitz Ball at Paintworks on Friday 25th February. They'll be throwing it back to an era of sandbags, sirens and swing found in the bunker-esque location in Bristol. Dress to impress with your vintage attire. A spectacular throwback to the 1940's!

THE SUPERS - GETTING THE PARTY STARTED!

Introducing to you, the wonderful ‘The Supers’, new to this year's fair, with an array of music to delight your ears.  Offering wedding and function entertainment they provide perfect music for every occasion. From Jazz, Swing and Soul, to Funk, Pop and Motown there will be something for everyone. Lead singer Molly King has a voice to die for, as she croons away to classic ‘50’s ballads, as well as upbeat swing hits.


The Supers can provide a range of entertainment from an intimate Jazz Duo, to a  fantastic 7-piece Funk Band, and can be available for the entirety of your event – to gently sing the bride down the aisle, or get the party rocking with hit covers on the dancefloor in the evening. The Supers can also offer DJ music for dance fillers in between their live music, a full PA system, which can be used during the day for speeches, as well as a full lighting set to add visual delight to the already buzzing atmosphere.


With a highly impressive resume, the musicians of the Supers are sure to be a hit with your guests having worked with the likes of Jools Holland, Hans Zimmer, U2 and Marcella Detroit amongst many others.


We at Bristol Vintage are “super” excited to hear them perform for all of us attending the fair in the afternoon, and you should be too! For a sneak preview check out their website.

ROCKA'S ROADHOUSE - VINTAGE AND RETRO MUSIC SPECIALIST

With her love of music from the 1940's onwards, from Swing to Rock 'n' Roll ... Rockabilly to Rhythm 'n' Blues ... Ska to Indie ... 80's Rare Garage & Acid to 90's House & Dance, Bristol based DJ Lula can create the perfect musical background for your wedding day.


With her incredibly eclectic vintage collection, Lula can offer you a totally personalised service to create whatever background you want.

If there's something you really love, Lula will try to include that and she'll chat to you about your style and decor so that her set compliments the surroundings - from subtle to outrageous - whatever fits in with your style.


Because of her love of all genres of music, Lula can please all your guests.  She's also happy to stay in the background or be more outgoing with your guests and will take requests when she can.

We met Lula when she first worked for us at an event.  We were quite inexperienced and Lula couldn't have been better - setting up the atmosphere perfectly and really pulling the stops out for a catwalk later in the evening.  Her professionalism and experience for exactly what was needed helped make the event such a success!



Recently featuring in Perfect Wedding and Wedding Magazine, Lula is also a DJ and presenter on internet radio station 'Rockabilly Radio' with her own live weekly radio show playing everyone from Rock 'n' Rol, Rockabilly to Doo-Wop and Rhythm 'n' Blues!



Come and hear Lula play at the fair and you'll be bopping all the way home!
