Song List for Doctor Chocolate – Wedding & Party Band Bristol
Doctor Chocolate are often asked what songs we include in our sets. Well we have an extensive list of songs that we play and it’s hard to choose what we can cram into two hours so we only choose the best songs from the 1960’s through to current chart hits. Not all the songs we choose to play at weddings, charity events and corporate events have brass in the original recordings – but as we have an awesome brass section it would be criminal not to use them – so we adapt and change the songs to give them a big, round and full sound. You can be sure that we carefully pick our sets of floor filers and there is something for every generation in our sets. We always have a packed dance-floor – no matter what the occasion!
We are currently working on some new numbers for the sets to keep them fresh and funky and have a few rehearsals scheduled in for the month of February.
To give you an idea of some of the songs we do please see below. We have an extensive set available so not all the songs we perform are listed – just a selection.

Woodland Weddings
Doctor Chocolate have performed for weddings of all kinds – from the most formal down to the most relaxed. Woodland weddings are a popular choice for couples wanting a more relaxed, festival feel to their day and Doctor Chocolate love the laid-back feel to this type of wedding.
Although the weddings take place in a woodland setting the evening celebrations are often held elsewhere in venues of all kinds – from Tipis, Marquees, Village Halls, Outdoor Centres, Hotels and private homes. No matter what the location you can be assured that Doctor Chocolate have performed and set up in a similar situation somewhere else in the UK!
A wedding in the woodlands, with vintage-style dresses, suits and Wedding Wellies or Wedding Ugg boots are the order of the day – especially in the Autumn or Winter! Bridesmaids and ring-bearers are often the family pets invited along to join in with the day. Bunting, candles and tea lights in jam jars, fairy lights, rustic benches, vintage cloths all add to the festival and Olde English feel of the day.
Doctor Chocolate are a 9-piece band and are available to finish the day off and get all the guests dancing with our party sets. There’s something for everyone in the sets from the 1960’s right up to the 00’s! We can even offer a laid back swing style set earlier in the afternoon with a duo or 3 to 5 piece band playing easy listening standards during the drinks reception or meal if required. Just ask!
