What you’ll love about working with Something Borrowed for your wedding:
- Something Borrowed began as just one duo. We became so busy we had to take on new duos. However, we were determined to not become just an agency with a tonne of duos doing their own thing. We have our formula and we feel it creates the best, most memorable wedding entertainment experience there is. From first email until your farewell circle. Yes, each duo has their own idiosyncrasies but you can rest assured whatever duo you go for, the service and entertainment will be of the highest standard.
- We have won Australian Bridal Industry Awards for best reception music and best ceremony music for the last 4 years running, as voted by brides.
- We have been in the wedding game for over 10 years, we absolutely love what we do... and it shows. This is why we strive so hard to make your day perfect!
- As you'll read in most of our 5 star reviews, we are always easy to get a hold of in the lead up to your big day and we are always flexible on how the day runs.
- We liase back and forward with you until we have every detail of every song choice... i.e The aisle walk, signging the marriage cert, recessional walk, bridal party entrance, first dance, parent dance...etc. Nothing is left to guess work.
- We let you know of our proposed set times once we have your run sheet and work with you if any changes need to be made. We're happy, when you're happy.
Our packages include the following:
Up to 3x songs learnt by your chosen artist to be performed live at your wedding.
Spotify playlists for out live set breaks. You can even play a role in this by creating the playlist and sharing them with us. We'll have them ready to play on the day.

Do you cater to song requests?
Yes! All Something Borrowed Duos have a huge repertoire. They are always happy to play a song request if they know it. In saying that, part of being a great wedding entertainer is knowing what to play and when to play it.
