How it works
About Our Wedding Bands for Hire in Devon
Your wedding reception should be about celebrating your union, where guests can come together and dance all evening. Every wedding is different, and finding the right band is essential.
Our website has a range of exceptional musicians available for hire, including lively bands for your evening party and more laid-back options.
You'll find popular musicians that play modern pop covers, but we also cater for more niche preferences, including soul, jazz, hip hop, and indie bands that offer acoustic sets.
How much does it cost to hire a wedding band in Devon?
The cost of hiring a wedding band in Devon depends on the band's popularity and whether they need to travel. For example, local wedding bands can charge between £1,000 and £1,500. However, popular brands with a national presence may charge over £3,000.
No matter your budget, we'll help you find a suitable band that plays live music and creates an evening to remember.
What styles or genres of wedding bands are available in Devon?
You'll find a variety of wedding bands available in Devon, with professional musicians specialising in different genres. While some focus on filling dance floors with upbeat pop songs, others play romantic background music that sets a classy tone.
When choosing wedding entertainment, consider the type of celebration you're planning. For example, if you're going for a laid-back theme, an acoustic duo will set the right tone, while a wedding party band will play a combination of classic hits and modern hits.
How far in advance should I book a wedding band for a Devon wedding?
Devon is a stunning wedding location, thanks to its range of countryside venues. Many bands perform across the South West, so it's vital to book your chosen entertainment in advance to avoid disappointment.
We recommend booking the band as soon as you secure the venue. However, we'll help you source suitable entertainment if you're planning a last-minute wedding.
Can wedding bands in Devon travel to my specific venue?
Yes, and most bands will travel. However, if the location is hard to reach, providing them with clear directions is a good idea.
Do Devon wedding bands bring their own sound, lighting, and equipment?
All the best wedding bands in Devon will bring their own equipment, so you won't need to worry about logistics. Some wedding venues have space and noise restrictions, so the band must bring sound limiters and smaller equipment.
Please check in advance and inform the band beforehand so they can prepare.
How long do wedding bands typically perform at Devon weddings?
When you book a wedding band through FixTheMusic, they usually perform for two hours. But most of our talented musicians will let you split the time to suit your needs.
For example, some might play during the ceremony or wedding breakfast, then perform a set in the evening.
Can I request specific songs or a first dance performance?
Absolutely! Your first dance song should be a meaningful testament of your love, and the band will aim to make your event unforgettable. They'll also add some creative inspiration to the song.
For example, a band specialising in indie classics can add a chilled-out tone to a power ballad. Again, please let the band know about your first song in advance.
Do bands provide background/recorded music between live sets?
Yes, they can do. Most will provide a laptop DJ service, which means your wedding guests can continue dancing when the band takes a break.
Another great option is to hire a DJ who specialises in private parties, as they offer a more immersive experience than laptop DJ services.
What deposit is required to book a wedding band in Devon?
It depends on the band you choose. When you review profiles on our website, it will list the band's rate and their required deposit. This deposit secures the band and ensures they'll be available for your wedding.
What happens if a band member is ill or unavailable on the day?
It's rare for this to happen, but most bands have reserve musicians who will step in when needed.
Certain things, like bad weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances, might mean that the band needs to cancel, but we'll attempt to help you find a suitable replacement.
Is it possible to see the band perform live or in video before booking?
You won't be able to see a function band perform live at weddings or corporate events, because they're private parties. However, many bands perform at public events such as festivals, where you can see them live.
Our website also has videos and audio samples to evaluate whether the band meets your requirements.
What are the best wedding venues in Devon?
So many beautiful wedding venues are available in Devon, including Pynes House and Kingston Estate, which are countryside estates. If a romantic beach wedding is more your thing, Watermouth Cove and Tunnels Beaches are excellent options.
