Wedding Entertainment

Rivington Hall Barn is a Grade II listed Saxon barn set in the Lancashire countryside near Bolton, run by the same family since 1953. Original beams and stonework give the barn its character, while the glass atrium terrace makes for a beautiful drinks reception space overlooking the grounds, and the on-site Shepherd's Huts mean guests can stay close by. The barn seats up to 180 for the wedding breakfast, giving couples plenty of room to celebrate. As a Bolton business, we always love being part of weddings at Rivington Hall Barn!

Wedding Entertainment At Rivington Hall Barn

Exceed Events is a preferred entertainment supplier at Rivington Hall Barn, a relationship that’s grown over numerous weddings we’ve delivered there. We’ve also worked on the venue’s own in house seasonal events, which has given us an even deeper understanding of the space beyond just wedding days.

That history means we know the barn’s layout, the format the team likes to run, and the staff themselves, so everything on the day fits together without any guesswork. Couples booking us here benefit from that familiarity straight away, since we’re not learning the venue for the first time on their wedding day.

Our Wedding DJs, Wedding Hosts, live musicians and photo booths are all available for weddings at Rivington Hall Barn, and we tailor the setup to suit the barn’s layout, whether that’s the ceremony space, the terrace for drinks, or the evening party in the main room.

What Do Other Clients Say!?

Couples don't just take our word for it. An Excellent rating on Trustpilot, and backed by more than 1,000 reviews across platforms, speaks for itself, and in 2026 we picked up Best Music, DJs and Performers at the Little White Books Great Northern Wedding Awards. That's the standard we've brought to Rivington Hall Barn wedding after wedding, and it's exactly what shapes the relationship we've built there.

Amazing!

We had Wez as our DJ and host for our wedding day, and he was absolutely amazing from start to finish! In the lead-up to the wedding, he was great to work with — always checking in, getting to know our favourite songs (and our do-not-plays), and really understanding the kind of vibe we wanted for the day. Having a host was one of the best decisions we made! Wez kept the energy and excitement going throughout the wedding breakfast with fun games that our guests absolutely loved — it really set the tone for the rest of the day. Then in the evening, he was an incredible DJ, reading the crowd perfectly and keeping the dance floor full all night with music that suited us perfectly. We also had Exceed’s magic mirror, which our guests couldn’t get enough of, and the saxophone player, who was a massive hit — people are still talking about how amazing he was! We honestly couldn’t recommend Wez and the Exceed team enough. They went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable!

Must book for wedding!!!

We had the pleasure of having Wes as our Host & Dj. He was amazing from the start up until the end guiding us with what we would expext with the wedding, planning the music choices with what would work well and also reassuring us throughout the process. We had some great calls with him on the lead up to the wedding and he suggested some engaging games to play during the wedding breakfast which ourselves and the guests loved and created an amazing atmosphere! He listened to the music we wanted and truly tailored to our preference (EDM). On the day he was super helpful and really friendly with the entire party, and everyone had great things to say about him making everyone feel comfortable and ensuring we all had a great time. He is a credit to exceed and a brilliant host and dj! Thank you so much!

What a day!!! thank you

Wez our host & DJ was fantastic, couple of chats in the lead up and he smashed it. We are a chilled couple and laid back and Wez got the approach to us and our guests spot on. We had lots of compliments about Wez and the music and we just had the best time on our wedding day! The dance floor had people on it all night. To make a job look easy is a skill in itself. Cheers Wez and Steve agrees that operation blade was the best track of the night, I would say Castles in the sky. We also had the magic mirror which went down well and it was kept busy for the 4 hours with photos being taken. The attendant was helpful and friendly to all guests. 5th July 2025 at Mytton Fold you were a massive part of such a special day, thanks for so many memories. Claire and Steve
