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 United States 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 United States start at $140 and rise to $1,750+ for a five-piece with full instrumentation, with most bookings around $500. Line-up size is the main variable, followed by how many hours of playing you need and how far the band travels.
