Guide to Booking Wedding & Function Bands in Lancashire

From the Ribble Valley to the bright lights of Blackpool, Lancashire offers a diverse and vibrant setting for weddings. Whether you're planning a countryside celebration or a lively party, a great live band is key to keeping your guests entertained.

What styles of music do your Lancashire wedding bands play?

Our Lancashire wedding bands perform a wide range of music styles, from classic rock and soul to modern pop and party anthems, ensuring something for every guest.

Our extensive collection of rock, popsoul and Motown bands will create a show to remember as well as play your favourite songs.

Alternatively, for wedding music which doesn't break the bank, how about a solo singer accompanied by either backing track, guitar or piano, or an acoustic duo?

Where in Lancashire have your wedding bands performed?

Our Lancashire wedding bands regularly perform at venues and locations across the county, from country houses to hotels and rural wedding venues.

Our bands have played at venues throughout the county, such as West Tower, Eaves Hall and The Crow Wood Hotel.

We've sent wedding bands to every nook and cranny of the county, including Blackpool, Blackburn, Preston, Burnley, Bamber Bridge, Lancaster, Lytham St Anne's, Leyland, Chorley, Fulwood, Accrington, Skelmersdale, Morecambe, Nelson, Darwen, Fleetwood, Ormskirk, Rawtenstall, Thornton, Colne, Poulton-le-Fylde, Haslingden, Heysham, Clitheroe, Bacup and Kirkham.

Can you provide wedding musicians in Lancashire for our ceremony or drinks reception?

Alongside evening entertainment, we can provide experienced Lancashire wedding musicians for your ceremony, drinks reception or wedding breakfast.

If you're after music for your ceremony, check out our string quartets or harpists.

Our jazz bands are ideal for keeping guests entertained whilst guests mingle, or to help break the ice at dinner.

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

 

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

Let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests, so we can check whether the act’s system is large enough. Also give us a heads-up if you’re planning an outdoor wedding or garden party so we can make sure the band has everything they need for this. 

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

Check the act's individual profile for more details and optional add-ons to enhance the show!

Can your Lancashire wedding bands learn our first dance song?

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

Check the band’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.

Can you provide other types of function bands in Lancashire, such as ceilidh, steel pan or jazz bands?

We offer a wide range of function bands in Lancashire, including ceilidh bands, jazz groups, brass bands and Latin or world music acts.

We love it when people get creative with their wedding themes and music.

Check out our brass and drums bands for an increasingly popular and refreshing alternative to the classic Lancashire function band.

It's also worth browsing our wedding soul bands, ceilidh bands and latin & world music bands. For even more offbeat wedding music ideas, see our alternative wedding bands section.

How can we save money on our wedding band?

There are several ways to reduce the cost of hiring a wedding band in Lancashire without compromising on quality.

 

Before you book more musicians for afternoon background music, check whether members of your wedding band can provide this – it'll save you additional costs, such as travel.

If you haven't yet set your date, consider booking a midweek or winter occasion to take advantage of the most competitive rates.

Always consider hiring a band from your local area, to save on travel and accommodation costs.

We have acts based in most major towns and cities across the UK.

Do you’re your wedding bands have insurance and PAT-tested equipment?

All of our Lancashire wedding bands carry public liability insurance and use PAT-tested equipment, as required by most venues.
