Wedding Bands for Hire in Salisbury

Q: How much do wedding bands cost in Salisbury?

The average cost of hiring wedding bands is £750, with prices from £180 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.

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.

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.

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.

Based in Salisbury, England 16th July 2026 Stephen Fowell - Lycian Events limited

Kate Stevens - Live Lounge "Kate Stevens has a beautiful and mellifluous voice that was pitch perfect at the the wedding. Not only that Kate is a gorgeous person and looks stunning! Kate was very conscientious in the build up to the event and went out of her way to ensure that the day went smoothly ,a very professional performer. The singing was so good that both the bride and groom were reduced to tears... can't say better than that. I would recommend Kate Stevens to anyone and would be happy to be contacted for a reference." Based in Andover, England (16 miles from Salisbury) Tim Belson - Wedding

Oleg Sax "We honestly couldn’t recommend Oleg enough! 🎷✨ He was absolutely incredible and brought such an amazing vibe and energy to our wedding. He had everyone up dancing, created the perfect atmosphere, and honestly exceeded all our expectations. Having him there was genuinely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you’re thinking about booking a sax player for your wedding - DO IT! You won’t regret it. He was absolutely brilliant from start to finish and helped make our day even more unforgettable. ❤️🎷" Based in Shaftesbury, England (18 miles from Salisbury) 6th September 2026 Tahanee B - Private Wedding

The Hound Dogs "No words I write can do these guys justice as to just how amazing they are. The Hound dogs played at our wedding and EVERYONE loved them. The band had everyone up dancing and singing along. Nigel was fantastic, it was all very easy booking the band and selecting what songs we liked. We also used them to DJ after the band had finished playing, again, all our favourite songs were played and everyone was up dancing. We had the pleasure of having Nigel play at a 30th a few years ago and having him and the band play at our wedding was just fantastic. They sounded and looked amazing and were lovely to talk to. The band left everyone wanting more and they were only too happy to oblige when everyone chanted for 'one more song'. Thanks again for being part of our day ❤️" Based in Warminster, England (19 miles from Salisbury) Katharine Dudley-Dapson - Wedding

Alive and Kicking "Just wanted to thank you all for Saturday night. It was amazing and everyone loved you guys! I will definitely be recommending Alive and Kicking!" Based in Southampton, England (21 miles from Salisbury) 22nd July 2026 Bruce - 30th birthday party
