Combining an exceptional lineup of stunning female lead vocals with guitar, keys, bass, sax, drums and top-notch backing vocals, Rare Gems' vibrant, full sound and charisma will have your dance floor packed from the first note to the final encore. With a rip-roaring repertoire of decade-spanning pop, rock, R&B, funk and country hits, whether you love timeless classics or the latest chart-toppers, this remarkable London-based wedding band ensures everyone is part of the celebration.

Having toured the country together, wowing guests at countless weddings, parties and private events, Rare Gems have refined their performance style in order to bring a perfectly mixed cocktail of elegance and a high-octane party to any event.

Rare Gems will arrive at your event with everything they need to make your event one to remember, including providing PA and lighting as standard, plus a playlist DJ service to keep the tunes flowing between their live sets. If you want to make requests on the night, you can upgrade to their manned DJ service, and for the party animals amongst you, why not opt for their late finish and keep the dancing going into the early hours? That's not all! To add an extra personal touch to your day, Rare Gems will learn and perform your first dance or a special request, completely free of charge.
