Photo of The Chameleonz The Chameleonz "They were fantastic. Everyone at our party was so impressed with the band. Nothing was too much trouble, and they even learned some songs especially for the party." Based in Sydney, New South Wales 21st September 2026 Susan Whatman - Private Function Photo of Duo Acoustic Duo Acoustic "The band were amazing and really made our night. The guests were really enjoying the music as they are lively and the songs choice were great. Ed and Simone set up everything by themselves and Iet me worry free, also very easy to deal with, they even asked me what would i like them to wear also. They were perfectly in tune and everything was excellent." Based in Sydney, New South Wales 21st September 2026 Le Anh Nguyen - Wedding at Le Montage, Iron Cove Bay Photo of The Covers Syndicate The Covers Syndicate "We had a DJ organised for my sons engagement party who pulled out on the morning of the party. Julian happened to be free and came and helped us out at short notice. There was torrential rain and ridiculous weather, he didn't hesitate to come, saving us a great deal of stress. Everyone had an absolute ball, Julian and his wife put on a wonderful night for us, they are both lovely people. The music was perfect for our variety of guests. They certainly know how to read a crowd for music and make your night an awesome event. We were so lucky to have found them." Based in Sydney, New South Wales 20th September 2026 Johann Cobb - Sydney DJs Photo of The Graduates The Graduates "We recently hired The Graduates for our corporate event to provide jazz music during our cocktail event. Mike was super helpful easy to deal with in the lead up to the event, and the band were fantastic on the night and our guests loved the music! Highly recommended, we will definitely be using them for our next event." Based in Sydney, New South Wales 27th July 2026 Cherish - Corporate Event Photo of Party Anthem Band Party Anthem Band "We just wanted to say thank you so much to you and all of your musicians for creating such an incredible, incredible event. You had that dance floor packed until we shut it down at midnight. We got so many compliments from our guests about your range and the way you kept the party moving. As I said at the event please don't hesitate to use us as a reference for any future clients. Thanks again for helping to create such a memorable event!" Based in Sydney, New South Wales 21st March 2026 Amy Lourdes, Director - Lush Events Photo of Ricardo Steyer Choro Ensemble Ricardo Steyer Choro Ensemble "Ricardo and his ensemble played at our wedding reception. So easy to communicate, plan and work with. We were so happy with their performance and made our wedding extra special! All of our guests commented on the music and that it set the perfect atmosphere for cocktail hour and during dinner. We will definitely be celebrating their part of our wedding for years to come! 10/10 recommend." Based in Sydney, New South Wales Meli - Wedding of Meli & Henry

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring wedding bands is $1,550, with prices from $320 to $5,500+. The main pricing factor is the number of musicians in the band, as wedding bands range from compact three-piece acts to large ensembles with brass sections and backing vocalists. Performance duration, whether the band provides music for multiple parts of the day and any extras such as DJ sets or lighting also affect cost.

Most wedding bands perform for two to three hours of evening entertainment, usually split into sets with short breaks. The first set often begins after the meal and speeches, starting with the first dance. Longer or shorter performance times can usually be arranged, and many bands also offer background music or DJ services for earlier parts of the day.

Many wedding bands are happy to learn a specific song, such as a first dance or a song with personal significance. For the best experience, discuss this with the band as early as possible, as some songs may require additional rehearsal time. Most bands will learn at least one special request at no extra charge.

The wedding bands listed on Gig Heaven range from small three or four-piece groups to larger line-ups with brass sections, backing singers and additional musicians. Smaller bands suit intimate venues and lower budgets, while larger ensembles create a bigger sound for grand receptions. Many bands offer flexible line-up options to suit different event sizes and budgets.

Most wedding bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, microphones and any necessary amplification for standard event venues. For larger spaces or events with over 300 guests, additional sound reinforcement may be needed. It is a good idea to confirm equipment details with the band before booking, especially if the venue has specific noise restrictions or technical requirements.

Most wedding bands cover a wide range of genres, from pop and rock to soul, Motown, indie and current chart hits. Some also offer jazz, swing or acoustic sets for cocktail hours and dinner. Browsing band profiles on Gig Heaven is the best way to check repertoire, and many bands will tailor their setlist to suit the style of your event.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
