Robot Hire for Weddings UK: Make Your Day Unforgettable
Couples across the United Kingdom are adding a futuristic twist to their big day by hiring robots for weddings. From greeting guests at the reception to delivering drinks tableside, wedding robots create talking points, photo opportunities, and memories that traditional entertainment simply cannot match.
Why Hire a Robot for Your Wedding?
A robot at your wedding is more than a novelty. Guests of all ages interact with robots, making them ideal ice-breakers during drinks receptions and table changeovers. Robots generate incredible photo and video content for social media, and they provide genuinely useful service, delivering welcome drinks, carrying canapes, or guiding guests to their tables. Wedding planners report that robot hire consistently ranks among the most talked-about entertainment choices at receptions throughout the UK.
Best Robots for Weddings
Pepper by SoftBank Robotics is the most popular wedding robot in the UK. Standing 120cm tall with an integrated tablet, Pepper greets guests by name, shares fun facts about the couple, and poses for selfies. Hire starts from around £650 per day.
BellaBot by Pudu Robotics is perfect for drinks reception service. Its four-tray design carries champagne flutes, canapes, or wedding favours directly to guests, complete with an adorable cat-face display that guests love to photograph.
Spot by Boston Dynamics makes a dramatic entrance at premium weddings. The robot dog can carry the rings down the aisle, perform dance moves, and create unforgettable video moments. Spot hire starts from £1,800 per day.
Wedding Robot Hire Pricing
Wedding robot hire in the UK typically costs between £150 and £2,000+ per day depending on the robot, with BellaBot at the affordable end and Ameca or Spot at the premium tier. Most couples book for a half-day or full-day package covering the drinks reception and evening entertainment. All roboTED wedding hires include delivery, setup, a trained handler, and collection.
Planning Tips for Robot Weddings
Book early, wedding season robots are in high demand from May to September. Confirm your venue has flat flooring and adequate space for the robot to navigate. Discuss your timeline with roboTED so the robot can be programmed with your schedule, guest names, or custom messages. If using a delivery robot like BellaBot, your caterer should prepare trays that fit the robot's shelves.
We recommend a brief announcement by your MC or DJ introducing the robot, this builds excitement and ensures guests know they can interact with it. A dedicated hashtag helps capture all the robot content from your guests' phones.
