Entrance, set or both?
A flexible format for the way your event flows
In Castleford, an entrance moves with people from a defined starting point to a clear destination. A performance set stays within an agreed area and gives guests a focused live feature. If your day would benefit from both, share the order and the time between each moment.
If your Castleford celebration includes both an entrance and a set, treat them as two clear moments. Share the transition, any waiting time and whether the players move to a different room or address before the second part begins.
For a baraat or groom entrance in Castleford, include the gathering point, expected route and who will lead the group. Explore our wedding dhol service and baraat and groom entrance guide.

For receptions and staged events, let us know how the DJ, host or production team will introduce the dhol. A named cue and a clear finish keep the performance aligned with the rest of the programme.
Sound rules vary between venues in Castleford. If you already have supplier guidance about live music, indoor or outdoor areas, or finish times, include it early so the performance idea can be discussed realistically.
For Castleford, venue access matters too. Let us know about parking or loading, stairs or lifts, outdoor surfaces, sound restrictions and where the players can wait without blocking guests or staff.
