IS A WEDDING BAND RIGHT FOR MY EVENT?
A wedding band can be very versatile in terms of the all-round service they offer and are a great way to keep your guests entertained throughout the day. Here are a few of the ways that they can bring that extra note of romance and fizz of energy to your beautiful wedding.
The Ceremony
A band can be hired to play right from the beginning of your event, all the way from the drinks reception, through to the exciting minutes before the bride appears and during that breathless and timeless moment when the bride steps out to walk down the aisle during the ceremony. There are so many romantic classics to choose from and any of these can be played softly in the background, heightening the emotion and setting the perfect tone for one of the biggest moments of your lives.
The Wedding Breakfast
After the excitement and high emotion of the ceremony, it can be very soothing and enjoyable to have some musical accompaniment both as your guests walk in to the room where they will have the wedding breakfast and also while they are chatting and eating. Music can help create a joyful mood and make it easier for guests to break the ice with their neighbours. Many wedding bands are experts at choosing just the right music for every occasion, so don’t hesitate to ask them to recommend some background songs for this part of your day.
Evening Reception
This is the moment when wedding bands really come into their own. When the time comes to get those toes tapping, there is no better way to re-energise your guests than a fun and funky live band. A DJ can certainly get everyone to the dance floor, but there is something so much more entertaining about live music and the atmosphere that a band can create. They can really work the audience, emceeing and talking to your guests, choosing just the right numbers and the right tempo to get you all the way through from the first dance to the last, making sure that no one wants to leave the dance floor. Some bands offer additional services, such as bandaoke, adding the extra entertainment of letting everyone have a go at being the lead singer, or providing a DJing service after they have finished their set. You can check all of this when you contact our bands direct.
What sort of wedding band do I need?
We have a vast selection of wedding bands to suit every style, theme and requirement in our vast directory. So where do you start?
If you’re planning to give your wedding a particular theme, such as vintage or rock and roll, then choosing a wedding band that looks and plays the part is a wonderful way to set the scene. If you’re looking for more general music and entertainment then many of our bands will play a variety of genres and eras, covering everything from the 1920s to chart and dance music.
One thing to consider is whether you are looking for a band to play covers of songs in the original style or whether you would like a band that can really make songs their own, bringing their special slant and energy to the songs that everyone knows and loves. Many of our bands have playlists or videos on their profiles, and this is a great way to gauge what kind of tone they will create – from big band sounds, professional function / party bands to Jazz funk and soul.
Whatever type of band you decide on, we have a varied selection of performers in your area, from the UK in London or further North, to the US, anywhere from California to New York.

What about the practicalities?
The main thing you will need to consider is your budget. This will depend on the number of band members, how experienced they are and how far they have to travel to your event.
A Duo or Trio will be a cheaper option at around £300 to £500 in the UK ($500 in the U.S. and €600 in Europe). For a 4 or 5-piece band you can expect to pay between £1000 and £2000 in the UK ($1000-$2000 in the U.S. and 600€-1200€ in Europe). While a top quality band with high calibre musicians and the best equipment will cost anything from £2000 to £10,000 in the UK ($2000 to $10,000 in the U.S. and 2,200€ to 11,000€ in Europe).
