I’m after a decent led light preferably square what I can use handheld for wedding night shots.

any recommendations? Don’t really want to spend any more than £30 if I can
 
For photography, flash beats continuous every time. You just need to spend some time learning to use it properly.

If you’re charging for weddings you should have at least 2 flashguns in your bag.

And again if you’re charging; gear is an investment and you ought to be able to spend more than 1/2 hours pay on essential gear.

Sorry if all that sounds harsh, but I’d say the minimum lighting gear for weddings would be 2 Godox speedlights, an AD200, trigger, lightstand and a soft box.

I have another flash Phil, at the moment my gear consists of a d600, d3400, 70-200mm f2.8 tamron VC G2, tamron 28-75mm f2.8, a sigma art 105mm F4 and a tiny 18-55mm kit lens from the d3400 which I don’t use.

I have to flashes also, just wanted something to light my subjects in the darkness kissing etc

I've no interest in your gear list Damo :)
But if you already have flash, then I'd go back to my first sentence - there's nothing that LED can do for photography that flash doesn't do better.
Better colour accuracy
Brighter - for your money
doesn't make your subject squint

Flash is great -but it's not as intuitive to learn to use as continuous light which makes some people scared of it.
