Wedding Bands in Wales

Book wedding bands anywhere in Wales

Wales covers a lot of ground, from Cardiff Bay, Wrexham and Swansea Marina. Our wedding bands travel right across the region, so wherever your wedding is, you'll find acts on this page who already know the venues, the roads and the local crowds. They're booked for country-house receptions, barn weddings and marquee parties.

Our listings for Wales take in Cardiff, North Wales and Swansea. Each of those areas has its own page too, which you'll find in the links further down, but the acts here will travel to any of them.

Venues across Wales that our acts know well include Coed-y-Mwstwr and Plas Dinam, Craig y Nos Castle and National Museum Cardiff, and Bodnant Welsh Food Centre and Brangwyn Hall. Every venue has its own space, power supply and finish time, and we'll check those with the act for you.

Across Wales you can choose from soul and Motown bands, pop and chart acts, indie and rock bands and bigger line-ups with brass. Most will take a few requests ahead of the day, and many can learn a special song if you ask.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment since 1999. Every band listed here covers Wales, and PA, lighting and travel are included in the quote you receive. Use the instant quote button on this page to check prices and availability for your date.

What to know:

  • Budget £1,400 to £2,600 for most bookings
  • Every quote includes PA, lighting and travel
  • Travel within Wales is never added on later
  • Many acts offer longer or extra sets if you need them
  • Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Most acts perform two or three sets, with playlist music or a break in between. Share your running order when you enquire, including any special moments, and we'll build the quote around it.

Smaller line-ups typically start from around £1,400, while bigger acts can reach £2,600 or more. Summer Saturdays and December are the busiest dates. The price in your quote includes PA, lighting and travel, so it won't change once you've booked.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style before you commit.

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 Wales 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, the season, and occasionally the venue's own power or access requirements.
All of it — Windsor, Ascot, Newbury, Reading, Maidenhead and everywhere between — plus the bordering parts of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire and Surrey, since plenty of Wales couples marry just over a county line.
Yes, in almost every case. Tell us the song when you book and we'll confirm whether it's one the band already knows or needs to learn — either way, it's usually not a problem.
Yes — every booking includes a full PA and lighting rig sized to the room, so there's nothing extra to hire or arrange. If your venue has a sound limiter, we'll ask about it in advance so the band can plan around it.
Twelve to eighteen months for a Saturday in peak season, and January and February are the busiest months for booking. Off-peak dates and weekdays tend to hold later, so if your date's close, ask anyway.
Often, yes. We run private showcases where you can see several acts in one evening, and can sometimes get you into a public date too. Every act also has video and real client reviews to help you decide.
It's vanishingly rare, but every booking is backed by a deputy system and full insurance, and we're contactable throughout. Once a booking's confirmed in writing, the act that's confirmed is the act that turns up.

“The Tommy Guns = AMAZING! They are worth every penny. We chose them for our wedding and were not disappointed. Aside from being prompt and having great communication with Hireaband throughout, the band were so friendly and their music was so superb that the dance floor was never empty. So many comments from guests saying how good they were, I almost wish we were getting married again to have them back! Would highly recommend and will definitely have them for any parties in the near future. Thank you again, it made our wedding.”

“Huge thank you from us for playing at our wedding on August 6th - you were FANTASTIC! We expected great things but honestly you blew us away with your performance and energy - you brought something new to each of the covers whilst capturing the spirit of the original. Sophie, your vocals were just outstanding! It was really important to us that we had live music at our wedding and that we kept everyone on the dancefloor all night - your incredible performance did that for us, we had lots of compliments from our guests and we had the absolute best time!! Thank you!! Thanks for making it a night to remember! We wish we could do it all again! Do let us know if you'll be playing any gigs in Bristol as we would love to see you perform again.”
