Wedding Bands in Swansea

Wedding bands playing venues across Swansea

Live music changes the feel of a wedding evening. Guests who would sit and chat through a playlist tend to get up for a band, and the energy builds from the first song to the last. Couples in Swansea book wedding bands for receptions of every size, from 60 guests to well over 200.

Swansea has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Oldwalls Gower and Parc Le Breos House to King Arthur Hotel. The bands on this page travel right across the area, including Mumbles, Neath and Swansea Marina, and are used to working with venue coordinators and sound limiters.

Within this category you'll find three-piece party bands, soul and Motown groups, indie and rock bands and full line-ups with brass. Their song lists show exactly what each one covers, and most will take a few requests from you ahead of the day.

We've been booking wedding bands since 1999, and every band on this page covers Swansea. PA, lighting and travel are built into the quote, the band sets up and clears away around your venue's timings, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

At a glance:

  • Most wedding bands cost between £1,400 and £2,600
  • PA, lighting and travel are included in the price you're quoted
  • Choose anything from a trio to an eight-piece with brass
  • Summer Saturdays book up 12 to 18 months ahead
  • A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking

A trio or four-piece is ideal for an intimate reception or a venue with a strict sound limiter. For 150 guests or more in a large room or marquee, a six-piece or bigger band fills the space properly. Tell us the venue and guest numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.

Most couples spend between £1,400 and £2,600. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the day and the time of year: a Wednesday in February can cost less than a Saturday in June. PA, lighting and travel are included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.

Each band's page carries real video, audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how an act works a room than any description can, so it's worth watching two or three before you shortlist.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

FAQs

Most Swansea weddings book a four- or five-piece for somewhere between £1,400 and £2,600, all in including PA, lighting and travel. What moves the figure is the line-up size, the day of the week and the season.
All of it — Parkmill, Oxwich, Llanrhidian, Reynoldston and Pen-y-cae and everywhere between, plus the surrounding towns and villages just over the county line.
Some of the grandest venues run their own noise conditions or curfews, so it's worth confirming the licence when you book — we can usually tell you what to expect if we've played there before.
Yes, in almost every case — tell us the song when you book and we'll confirm it.
Twelve to eighteen months for a Saturday in peak season; off-peak dates and weekdays hold later.
Often, yes — we run private showcases, and every act has video and real reviews.

“We based the date of our wedding on the availability of the band, and we are so glad we did. The band were phenomenal! Everyone danced the night away from the very first song. The guys were so friendly and professional and such a pleasure to have as part of our wedding. We have received so many compliments on just how good, how polished the band were. It absolutely made our day...
You guys totally rocked!”

“Stereo Jack were very professional and completed our evening, I highly recommend them for any event.”

“I cannot thank Kickback enough for their amazing performance at our wedding. They were absolutely brilliant all evening, we paid for the extra hour set and I am SO glad we did, it was worth every penny and ended the evening on a real high. The band listened to some requests I had, played songs that had some meaning to me, and read the crowd so well. I had so many people say how fantastic the band were and took their details for future events. The vocals of all the members are just insane and I really cannot recommend them enough for any event, book them now you won’t be disappointed!!!”

“Juno were unbelievably good and words really do not do this band justice. Their stage presence and ability to get the crowd going really sets them apart from their competitors. The set list incorporates all the classics and new favourites that get a crowd ranging in ages from 15 - 85 on their feet and dancing throughout the night. Would definitely recommend Juno for any wedding or birthday party. 10/10”

“Thirdwheel, you guys rock!! We all KNOW it?s gonna be a party whenever third wheel are playing ???? Third Wheel always bring the good vibes and we can?t help but get up and dance to every song! Thanks for always making it a night to remember!! Can?t wait for their next gig - we will be there!! ??”

“The Tommy Guns are absolutely amazing. Stunning vocals and music, such a great entertaining vibe. They ensured we had such a great time at our wedding reception - sounded so good and every band member is clearly very talented. They gave us an excellent choice of songs, with huge variety. And all the genres were superb. Very versatile. Even got on board with our inflatable fish we brought out for their performance of Under the Sea. All of our guests loved the band and all the music. Would definitely recommend and would definitely use again. Highly organised and punctual. 5 star excellent and thank you so much!!!”
