Steel bands and roaming bands are great choices for outdoor receptions, as they don't require a power supply and can roam freely amongst your guests.

Do your Suffolk wedding bands bring their own sound and lighting equipment?

All of our Suffolk wedding bands come fully equipped with professional PA systems, instruments and lighting as standard.

This works really well for most marquee or indoor weddings.

Let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests, so we can check whether the act’s system is large enough.

Most bands will also bring lighting for both the stage and dancefloor.

Most of our Suffolk wedding bands are happy to learn and perform your first dance song, provided it suits their line-up and style.

Check the act’s profile to see what they can offer and if they can’t do it live, they could just play it through their PA system using Spotify or an mp3 player.
