5/5 from 328 reviews
Photo of Ctrl Alt Repeat Ctrl Alt Repeat "I saw this band last night at the Port House in Stourport and honestly, they’re the best live band I’ve seen in a long time. From the first song to the last, they absolutely nailed it. The energy in the room was amazing — you could tell they weren’t just playing songs, they were putting on a proper show. The vocals were spot on and the setlist was perfect for the crowd. Every song had people singing along, dancing, or filming because it was just that good 🤘🎸 🥁" Based in Birmingham, England 18th March 2026 Diane Corkin Photo of House of Chords House of Chords "We had a fantastic day and the evening was excellent. Thank you so much for making it all so easy for us, from talking beforehand we knew we were in good hands. Everyone made a point to tell us how brilliant you were, the songs you played appealed to all and got everyone up dancing. You know yourselves that we didn’t want you to finish!! We couldn’t recommend you highly enough: totally professional, laid back and with a heap of talent. Thank you for making our night truly memorable!

Based in Birmingham, England Lorna Dick - The Bullring, Birmingham (Street Performance) Photo of The Smooth Criminals Party Band The Smooth Criminals Party Band "I cannot put into words how fantastic you guys were, from not only singing our first dance, but as we couldn't make up our minds you performed two for us, not to mention the rest of your set. We had a fantastic day but you took it to another level, to see all our friends & family dancing & enjoying themselves because of you is just amazing, hopefully see you again soon..."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring wedding bands is £750, with prices from £170 to £2,250+. 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.
