Wedding Bands for Hire in Lausanne

Q: How much do wedding bands cost in Lausanne?

The average cost of hiring wedding bands is CHF850, with prices from CHF200 to CHF2,800+. 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.

Q: How many hours does a wedding reception band typically perform?

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.

Q: Can wedding bands learn a specific song for our event?

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.

Q: What size line-ups are available for wedding bands?

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.

Q: Will wedding bands bring their own sound equipment?

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.

Q: What genres can wedding bands play?

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.

Q: Can I contact multiple suppliers at the same time?

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard .

5/5 from 3,959 reviews

Sade de Luxe "Amazing performance by Sade de Luxe! Our clients really enjoyed the music and the atmosphere they created throughout the evening. Thank you very much for this great collaboration!" Based in Lausanne, Canton of Vaud 2nd October 2026 Oriane - Corporate event

Squid Lips "Squid Lips played at our wedding in Evian last weekend. They handled all aspects of music and sound from ceremony, to jazz during cocktails, to mics for speeches, to band for dancing, and the DJ for later on. They really did an incredible job, took account of all our requests, no matter how obscure, and kept people on the dance floor all night. Cannot recommend this very talented bunch of musicans highly enough!" Based in Thonon-les-Bains, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (13 miles from Lausanne) Ramsay Kerr - Wedding

4u2 "WOW and WOW again. Saw this group 4U2 in the Roman Amphitheater of the Arenes de Fréjus in the south of France, and was really blown away. What an incredible sound just like the originals and what an immersive visual show with all the lighting and that enormous video screen !!! Truly incredible. If you're a U2 fan, this group is really the next best thing, an absolute must to see. Peter - U2 fan for 32 years" Based in Annecy, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (49 miles from Lausanne) Peter Crowther (Eng) - Best of U2 at the Arènes de Fréjus

Mantequilla Tropical "Fabulous music and fabulous people, what a concert! It was such a pleasure having you!!! <3" Based in Bern, Canton of Bern (49 miles from Lausanne) Maja - Private Garden Party

The DooLallys "I first witnessed The DooLallys years ago at a kind of impromptu kitchen session. I think deeply soulful is the best way to describe their mix of pipes, strings, and song - seamless switches between O'Carolanesque 18th Century rave style to sweet balladeering, along with true and loving versions of traditional Irish music tunes, all layered with a knowing hedge school poetic sensibility." Based in Bern, Canton of Bern (49 miles from Lausanne) Tim Bradford

Krystal Live Band "Krystal Live Band performed for our 20th wedding anniversary and created exactly the right atmosphere. Their performance made the celebration a complete success, leaving us and all our guests with wonderful memories. We recommend them without hesitation." Based in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (101 miles from Lausanne) 3rd August 2026 Berger
