Photo of Richard Lilliston Jr Richard Lilliston Jr "I absolutely love listening to him play his saxophone!! I have hired him to play at our special events at work and for my family events. He knows how to create the perfect list of songs to fit your particular event. We love to see him come in the door and hate to see him leave. We sing along we play the instruments that he provides, it’s just a great experience. 10 out of 10 every time" Based in Richmond, Virginia 18th September 2026 Monica Photo of JTucker - Urban Jazz & Smooth R&B JTucker - Urban Jazz & Smooth R&B "We had a GREAT time! The Band was awesome...I'm still getting compliments from attendees (please pass that on to Haywood). We want to book JTucker & the Krewe for next year too! Thanks for your patience and working with us on this event. I can't tell you how much fun we had with the Band! Round of Applause! Lol -Jamal W.- Event Planner Springhill Suits Event Center Chester, VA" Based in Richmond, Virginia Jamal W. - Kappa Alpha Psi Photo of JBaxterMusic Consortium LLC JBaxterMusic Consortium LLC "All we can say is Wow! Jay and his crew were amaaaaaazing! Truly made the night so memorable and fun. We couldn't be happier. From the minute they got to our house until they packed up their last instrument, they were nothing but professional, polite, respectful and friendly. And let's talk about how talented and entertaining they were! Even our neighbors said that they sat in their driveway and enjoyed the sounds of the evening. They truly ""brought the house down"" and we couldn't be more grateful and appreciative. We thanked Jay, and Rob's in touch w him about Venmo-ing, what we hope is a generous tip for him and his band. Monica, you too have been nothing but so helpful and gracious. It takes a village and we are so grateful for our fantastic village of vendors such as you and Jay. Thanks again for everything!! Tracie T." Based in Richmond, Virginia Tracie T Photo of The Chemistry Band The Chemistry Band "I’ve seen a lot of live bands, and this one is something special. Chemistry's talent is undeniable, but what really stands out is the way they connect with the audience. From the moment they take the stage, they create an intimate vibe that makes every performance feel personal. Their blend of Neo-Soul and R&B is smooth, soulful, and full of energy. The musicianship is exceptional, the musical synergy is effortless, and their showmanship keeps you engaged from beginning to end. They don't just play great music—they create an experience that leaves you smiling, singing along, and wishing the night wasn't over. If you have the chance to see them live, don't miss it. They never disappoint, and they always deliver more than you expect." Based in Gainesville, Virginia (86 miles from Richmond) 16th July 2026 Cheryl Harrison Photo of Brazilian Bossa Jazz Band Brazilian Bossa Jazz Band "The trio was fantastic, professional, and talented. The music added the perfect touch to our special day. Highly recommended!" Based in Centreville, Virginia (89 miles from Richmond) 17th September 2026 Sue - Private Wedding Photo of The Devil's Tailors The Devil's Tailors "The Devil's Tailors were fantastic. They were easy to work with and helped make our wedding event one to remember. They traveled all the way to Arizona from the east coast. I was grateful for their effort and desire to do it at a reasonable price. Everyone loved the bagpipes and the dancing with the fiddle and the piano. They called out the dances while everyone participated and everyone learned how to do them easily. Everyone was anticipating the next number when they could do it again. I definitely recommend using The Devil's Tailors for your next event. If you are thinking about having Scottish dancing at your event, but don't know if it would be fun, I will tell you to book them right now. It is an amazing time. And if you have had Scottish dancing before, The Devil's Tailors will do a wonderful job." Based in Alexandria, Virginia (89 miles from Richmond) Jamie Williams - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring wedding bands is $1,050, with prices from $230 to $3,550+. 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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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.
