We have Wiltshire wedding bands to suit all tastes and venues: whether you’re planning a christening at Salisbury Cathedral or a shindig at Stonehenge, we have the perfect musicians for your event.
Our acts specialise in floor-filling rock and pop music that all ages can enjoy, but we have bands in all styles, from jazz and swing to ceilidh, ska and Latin.
Our acts perform regularly at venues such as Bowood Golf and Country Club, Larmer Tree Gardens and Burcombe Manor.
All our bands for weddings are fully self-contained with their own PA sound system, microphones, backline amplifiers and instruments. This works really well for most marquee or indoor weddings.
But let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests, so we can check whether the band’s system is large enough.
Most acts will also bring lighting for both the stage and dancefloor. Check the band's individual profile for more details and optional add-ons to enhance the show!
Most bands will be happy to learn and perform your first dance request – provided they think they can arrange it for their line-up and do it justice!
Check the act’s profile to see what they can offer and if they can’t do it live, they could just play it through their PA system using Spotify or an mp3 player.
