Wedding Entertainment in Swansea

Find your wedding entertainment in Swansea

Most couples haven't settled on a format when they start looking. You might be torn between a band and a DJ, or wondering whether a ceremony singer is worth it on top of the evening act. Across Swansea, couples browse here first, see which acts they keep coming back to and let the rest take shape around them.

Popular wedding venues in Swansea include Oldwalls Gower, Parc Le Breos House and Brangwyn Hall, and our acts play weddings across the Gower, Swansea Marina and Llanelli. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say what has worked there before.

Not every act does the same job. Some are best for a quiet, elegant ceremony, others for a lively reception or a packed dance floor. Knowing which parts of the day you want to cover makes the choice much easier.

We've been booking wedding acts since 1999, and every act on this page covers Swansea. PA, lighting where needed and travel are built into the quote, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

At a glance:

  • Solo acts start from around £300; live bands range from £1,200 to £4,000 and over
  • PA, lighting where relevant and travel are included in the price you're quoted
  • Mix formats across the day, from ceremony music to an evening band
  • Summer Saturdays book up 12 to 18 months ahead
  • A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking

A live band gives you a show and an atmosphere a playlist can't match, while a DJ can play any song you like and takes up less space. Many couples book a band for two sets and have the DJ or the band's playlist carry the rest of the night.

Expect to pay from around £300 for a solo ceremony musician up to £4,000 or more for a large band with brass. The format matters most, then the date and how long the act plays. Every quote includes travel and any PA or lighting needed, so nothing is added later.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients who have already booked them, often at venues you'll recognise. Between them you'll have a clear picture of the wedding well before the day.

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

Wedding Entertainment is the full range — live bands, solo singers, duos, acoustic musicians and more — so you can compare every option in one place rather than committing to one format first.

It varies a lot by format — a solo singer or acoustic duo typically starts from around £300, whereas a live band can be anything from £1,200 all the way to £4,000 and over, depending on line-up size. Travel is always included in every quote.

Yes — solo acts and duos are one of the most popular choices for smaller weddings, ceremonies or where budget or space is limited, and they're booked through the same instant-quote process.

Yes, every act listed here travels to Swansea as standard, with travel costs already included in the quote you receive.

Many acoustic acts and duos can cover ceremony music as well as an evening set — check each act's own page for what's included, or ask us directly when you enquire.

Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday — earlier is generally safer the bigger the act, since full bands get booked up first.

“Crawford and the guys were absolutely incredible at our wedding , every guest including us were blown away by Crawfords vocal skills and the bands set list for the night was fantastic! My wife and I are truly grateful for having this unbelievable band performing for our big day, can’t recommend them enough!! Like to also personally thank Del & Gaye at Hireaband during our band booking process and for being so great to work with to make our big day special. 11/10 for everything!!”

(5)

“The whole process - from enquiry to our wedding day - was a delight. We had initially booked our wedding band through Hireaband and were looking for a pianist for the ceremony. Gaye sent through a variety option and that is how we found Chris. Chris was amazing! When we talked through what we wanted for our ceremony, he was more than happy to make it happen, not questions asked. All of our guests were so complimentary of the variety of songs he played. Would highly recommend to anyone!”

(5)

“Steven was a fantastic addition to our wedding. We had so many compliments from our guest about how entertaining he was. He was engaging, friendly and kept everyone shocked and scratching their heads with how he did all his tricks. Would definitely recommend!”

(5)

“The Fairmont Trio were excellent on our wedding day. They were prompt and played perfectly throughout the ceremony and the drinks reception. All the guests loved them and we have had so many compliments about their performance. The band members were also super friendly and seemed to enjoy themselves as well.”
