How Far in Advance Should We Book a Wedding Band in Surrey?
Professional wedding bands are booked far in advance, sometimes even a couple of years ahead. Try to book at least one year before your wedding, especially for spring and summer dates. Weekend openings get snapped up the quickest, so don't wait too long!
Last-minute rush? FixTheMusic has your back! We can help find great wedding bands for any musical emergency.
How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Wedding Band in Surrey?
Typically, you'll need a budget of £1,900 to hire one of the wedding bands Surrey offers. But we have options for every budget! Smaller groups like acoustic duos cost less, while larger in-demand wedding bands with male and female vocals or backing vocals might cost up to £8,500.
The price of bands for hire depends on:
- The number of musicians
- The band's popularity
- The venue's location
What Styles of Music Do Wedding Bands in Surrey Play?
Our best wedding bands cover a huge range of musical styles! From contemporary music to hip-hop or pop tunes with a unique twist - there's a perfect live band for you.
Check our live wedding bands' profiles for their musical style and playlists. Want a sensational party band with female vocals for an extravagant evening reception? Done.
Maybe an acoustic duo for a sophisticated garden ceremony? We've got that as well. The choice is yours, and we make it easy to find your perfect match!
How Long Do Wedding Bands Typically Perform at Weddings?
Wedding music bands typically play around two hours of live music, divided into sets of 3 x 40 minutes or 2 x 60 minutes. Between the band's live sets, there may be a "laptop DJ service" using a downloaded playlist.
Do Surrey Wedding Bands Provide Their Own Sound and Lighting Equipment?
Yes, Surrey wedding bands bring all their equipment, including a PA system, lighting, sound equipment, etc.
Just let your band know if your venue has any sound limits or special needs. For very large venues, the band might suggest extra equipment. They'll be happy to answer any questions about their setup.
Can We Request Specific Songs for Our Wedding?
Absolutely! Wedding bands love playing songs that mean something special to you. If your favourite tune isn't already on their list, just ask. Most bands are happy to learn a song or two for your big day, especially for important moments like your first dance.
Do We Need to Provide Food and Drinks for the Band?
Yes, each performer should get a hot meal and soft drinks or water. Wedding bands for hire don't expect the same meal you offer guests - many venues offer simpler "supplier meals" at a lower cost. If you're having a buffet, that's often the easiest way to feed the band.
How Much Space Does a Wedding Band Need at the Venue?
For a 4-person band, plan for a space of about 4 × 5 meters. Remember, they need room not just for themselves but also for their instruments (drums take up lots of space!), sound equipment, and lights.
Do Wedding Bands in Surrey Require a Deposit?
Yes, you'll need to pay a deposit to secure your booking. Your chosen band will send you a secure payment link. If your wedding is less than 45 days away, you'll need to pay the full amount up front.
Can Wedding Bands Also Provide a DJ Service?
Our professional bands often play a downloaded playlist between sets, but if you prefer the dazzle of a live DJ service, you can have both!
As most bands usually finish around midnight, hiring a DJ is a good way to keep your dance floor rocking.
What Happens if a Band Member Is Unavailable on the Day?
Surrey wedding bands are ready for anything! If a band member is unavailable, our party bands will fill the gap in the lineup from their network of professional musicians and singers.
Can Wedding Bands Perform at Outdoor Weddings in Surrey?
Yes! Surrey wedding bands often play outdoors in some of Britain's most beautiful landscapes! Since the weather can be fickle, ensure the band and their equipment are protected from the rain.
Check with all wedding venues about any rules for outdoor music before you book.
Can We See the Band Perform Live Before Booking?
Unless it's at a public event, like a festival or charity drive, then most likely not. Party bands play for private functions, like wedding receptions or corporate events, which is why this isn't possible.
Check their profile pages: they share audio clips and sometimes videos from some of their performances.

What Happens if Our Wedding Schedule Runs Late?
Your band booking won't change if your wedding schedule runs late. You can still make the most of your wedding entertainment by asking the band to play your favourite tunes first. You can also ask the band if they are willing to play longer. This will incur an extra fee, but our best wedding bands are worth every penny!
