Wedding Bands

A live band is the heart of a wedding reception: the entrance, the first dance, and a floor that stays full until the last song. Browse their photos, videos and song lists, then tell us your date and venue and we will confirm who is free.

Wedding Bands: what couples ask

Practical answers about pricing, timing and what to confirm before you book.

What size band suits our wedding?

A duo or trio suits an intimate room. A four or five piece with a lead singer is the classic choice for most receptions. Bigger line-ups with horns suit a large room and a crowd that wants to dance all night. Many bands show the line-ups they offer on their profiles.

Can the same band play the ceremony and the reception?

Often, yes. Many bands offer a solo or duo acoustic set for the ceremony and the drinks, then the full band for the evening. Tell us if you would like one act for the whole day and we will shortlist bands that offer it.

How long does a wedding band play?

A typical reception booking is three sets across the evening, with the band's own playlist between them. The band shapes its set times around your speeches and formalities.

Can we choose the songs?

Bands play from their own repertoire and take requests for the key moments: the entrance, the first dance, the parent dances and the last song. Most will learn a special song or two given notice. Many list their songs on their profiles.

Do we need a DJ as well?

Not usually. Most bands cover the gaps between sets with their own playlist and can run the floor to the end. If you would like a DJ for the last hour as well, tell us and we will suggest acts that pair well.

Prefer some guidance?
