Scotland is one of the most popular locations in Europe for destination weddings, and for good reason.

The magic and mystery of the many lochs, including Loch Lomond and Loch Ness, the rural beauty of the highland landscape and the historic yet thoroughly modern cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, are just some of the factors that make Scotland such a hotspot for tying the knot, especially with American couples.

When it comes to hiring a live wedding band in Scotland, it can be difficult to find exactly what you want for your special day.

In general, couples who head to Scotland for a destination wedding want a band that plays covers of British and American pop, rock and indie music (as well as some funk and soul thrown in for good measure).

On FixTheMusic, bands always provide quotes directly to you with a clear breakdown of costs so you can make an informed decision – no other costs are added, and once you’re happy to book, you can pay securely online via card.
