Plenty of our artists are happy to accommodate a variety of functions, including weddings. However, a wedding band in particular is one who solely specialise in playing live music for weddings. Often, they also offer DJ services in between their sets, so that you are covered for music throughout the night.
There are plenty of different styles of wedding bands, ranging from funk and soul bands, to rock and pop function bands. You can specialise with a swing band, or a brass band, as well. Each type of band offers a wonderful personalised experience for your special day. If you don't like the idea of a band on stage, you could consider hiring a roaming band that is capable of moving through the crowds. Whatever option you pick, each band will go out of their way to ensure that you have a beautiful time at your wedding.
If you don't want a full ensemble, many bands even offer duo and trio versions of their band, often focusing on acoustic melodies. This way, you can have a lighter sound during the day, and amp up the music later for your reception.
Wedding bands are usually self-contained. This means they offer a whole package in one. You will get a wonderful set (usually 2 x 45 minute sets, or 3 x 30 minute sets) with PA (sound equipment), lights and travel included.
Their sets are specifically tailored to weddings, and they will often travel large distances to perform.
The best wedding bands will play a variety of music that will cater to your audience. While some wedding bands specialise by genre, most wedding bands play a real assortment of hit music for your guests. With Headliner, we offer the best wedding bands for you to take your pick from. From chart-topping hits to era-specific classics, your needs will sure to be covered for your special night.
Sometimes, you really just want to get down. The ultimate party bands specialise in getting you to groove, and what better way than with classics from the 70s and onward? Expect everything from Aretha Franklin to Bruno Mars, as the funk genre spans over many generations. One of these bands are sure to get your guests moving out of their seats.
Some of our most stylish wedding bands have their roots in jazz. Lively jazz and swing bands, perform modern hits in jazzy styles. For a sophisticated, romantic and unique touch you might consider hiring a jazz band for your wedding celebrations. Jazz bands range in a variety of styles. Be it roaming gypsy jazz or fiery Latin Jazz, classical background music, or swing singers at the forefront.
Pop, Rock and Indie wedding party bands are highly sought after for entertainment. They will play a lively and varied set of dance music for your party. With repertoires ranging between classic and modern rock, as well as pop music, you're guaranteed to have a night that your guests will love. From the Beatles to Taylor Swift, preferences of all your guests are covered.
Sometimes, you just need your entertainment to travel! Perhaps your venue doesn't have a massive stage, or you just want more of a spontaneous evening, roaming bands are the choice for you. These bands can be a quirky alternative to the traditional wedding band. Additionally, acoustic bands might be a great choice for venues that have sound limiters. Acoustic and roaming bands offer a warm and intimate experience for a relaxed wedding ceremony and playful drinks reception. From traditional guitar-based acoustic bands to Mariachi, bluegrass to barbershop Headliner artists cover it all.
Looking to take your guests back to another era? Delight their senses with the classic sounds of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, Nina Simone and Louis Armstrong. If you're looking to bring an extra element of class to your wedding, consider hiring a classic big band. You can choose to have the full, big band experience to raise the roof, or opt for a toned-down version, according to the vibe you'd like to create at your wedding.
You have different options in regards to set duration when booking a band. Most bands will either play 2 x 45 minute sets, or 3 x 30 minute sets. However, you can agree to a set performance time with your band when requesting a quote. Requesting additional performance time will increase the fee.
Most bands will require a 15 minute break in between sets. They usually will provide background music (better known as a DJ service) so that the music remains uninterrupted. If you request a DJ set (professional DJing) afterwards, many bands also offer this as an option for an additional fee. This will also increase the time the band is there for.
