We know that couples love to make their weddings individual and customised and we pride ourselves on being able to provide Southampton wedding bands as varied as the couples' celebrations themselves.
Whether you want a soulful 6-piece band, a sophisticated classical quartet, a throwback rock 'n' roll extravaganza or anything in between, we've got you covered.
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.
Let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests, so we can check whether the act’s system is large enough.
Most bands will also bring lighting for both the stage and dancefloor.
Check the act'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.
Absolutely! Our Southampton wedding musicians include classical arrangements, jazz bands, acoustic trios and duos, solo wedding singers and instrumentalists to fit any occasion.

Our Southampton function bands include a range of other genres including jazz bands, soul bands, string quartets, soloists and even quirkier, alternative options that mean your big day won’t lack entertainment - whatever your vision for it!
From a ceilidh and a caller to a shimmying salsa, lively Latin or balshy brass, we love to plan as unique a day as possible with each couple deciding to celebrate their big day with our acts.
