Wedding Bands for Hire in Bodrum

Couples on FixTheMusic typically enquire around 5 months before their Turkish wedding date, but popular bands book up faster for September weddings (our busiest month). Start browsing as soon as your venue is confirmed.

Many couples request a two-part approach: an acoustic duo or trio for canapés and dinner, then a full 4–5 piece band for the evening party. Several enquirers specifically mention wanting pop and soul covers mixed with the option of Turkish or Bollywood songs.

Yes. Most can provide live music throughout the day — from soft acoustic or classical music during your ceremony, to upbeat sets in the evening that get everyone dancing. You can also request a DJ service to keep the party going late into the night.

Yes, professional wedding bands will bring their own instruments. However, larger sound systems and lighting equipment are often arranged through your Bodrum venue or local production company. Your band can usually coordinate directly with your wedding planner to ensure everything is set up properly.

Absolutely. Most bands are happy to learn your first dance song or a special track of your choice. Just let them know well in advance so they have time to rehearse it before travelling.

The typical performance time is two hours, split into two or three sets. Some couples also book an acoustic duo or jazz group for daytime drinks, then switch to a full band for the main party.

Prices vary depending on the band’s size, travel distance and popularity. Expect to pay from €2,000 for smaller groups and up to €5,000 or more for large international showbands. Flights, accommodation and local transport may be added to the final quote.

Yes, most bands can perform outdoors as long as they have access to shade and power. Evening beach or terrace performances are common in Bodrum, especially in venues overlooking the marina or the Aegean Sea.

If rain or strong wind is forecast, bands usually need some form of shelter or an indoor backup space. Your wedding planner or venue can help with contingency arrangements to protect equipment and instruments.

International pop, soul, Motown, funk and Mediterranean-inspired acoustic sets are all in high demand. Bands can often tailor their playlist to match your crowd — blending global hits with Turkish or regional influences.

Yes, it’s customary to provide a meal and soft drinks for the band, especially if they’re performing late or have travelled from abroad.
