Acoustic acts are the usual answer when a venue has a noise limiter or the ceremony is outdoors, since most can play with very little amplification or none at all. Ask how the band handles the quieter parts of the day: many will cover a drinks reception and dinner as a duo, then bring the full line-up out for the evening.

Acoustic bands in the United Arab Emirates play unplugged or lightly amplified, which suits ceremonies, drinks receptions and rooms with a sound limit. Most work from popular songs rearranged for acoustic instruments, and many offer a smaller line-up for the daytime and a fuller one after dinner.
Outdoor ceremonies, marquees and rooms with a strict noise limit are the obvious cases, because an acoustic set carries without a PA fighting the limiter. They also suit long events where the music has to sit under conversation for part of the day and lead it later. Ask whether the band brings its own small PA, since even acoustic acts usually want vocal reinforcement in a larger room.
Rates for a duo in the United Arab Emirates start at AED600 and rise to AED7,500+ for a five-piece with full instrumentation, with most bookings around AED2,050. Line-up size is the main variable, followed by how many hours of playing you need and how far the band travels.
The average price is AED2,050, with most priced from AED600 to AED7,500+. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Mezcla Gitana
"Wanted something unique for our wedding and we struck gold! These flamenco artists created such a vibrant atmosphere. Started with beautiful Spanish guitar during dinner that had everyone mesmerized, then got the whole party dancing with Gipsy Kings covers. The perfect mix of flamenco feeling and party vibes. Our guests loved it. Totally recommended!"

Asgards Traditional Irish Music
"We couldn’t have been happier with Asgards at my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. They were absolutely fantastic and helped make a very special occasion even more memorable. The music was brilliant, the atmosphere was wonderful, and they kept everyone entertained throughout the night.
They were also incredibly accommodating and made sure everything ran smoothly. Alison was a pleasure to deal with from the very beginning: friendly, helpful and so easy to work with. We’re very grateful to the whole band for helping make the celebration such a success. I would highly recommend Asgards to anyone looking for a brilliant band for their event."
