Not only is it a nostalgia trip that's sure to take some of your older guests to their youth, it's an unforgettable experience that adds the anticipation to your entire wedding celebrations! From the moment the band shows up to your venue to the sight of the members rushing back and forth, sound-checking, tuning up, preparing the stage, the lights and the instruments, to the last moments where you're waiting for the first note, every moment of your big day becomes an electrifying moment you'll cherish forever. When you're taken away into your first dance, you'll never want the experience to end!
The enormous variety of line ups available with funk and disco wedding bands means there's a large range of prices to consider. The popularity of the band, their size and the distance they have to travel to your venue will have an impact on their final price.
Typically a duo or a 3-piece wedding funk band might start in the region of £600 or £700, while 4- and 5-piece bands usually average between £900 and £1800. Larger bands can cost from £1200 to several thousands of pounds in their most extravagant line ups.
We'll work with any budget to make sure you find the wedding funk and disco band you're after. Remember, our industry experts have vetted all the bands on our books to make sure we only represent the highest quality wedding disco bands for hire, so you can browse all our acts with confidence.
Funk and disco wedding bands specialise in the good time feelings, colours, and thriving disco vibes of the "Saturday Night Fever" style! They'll relive the epic sounds of the 70s with horns, electric pianos, rhythm guitars, electric bass lines, synthesisers, and plenty of groovy songs from the likes of James Brown, Chaka Khan, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson to make sure you stay where you belong - on the dance floor!
Each band will bring their own interpretation to the genre and you should check out their extensive repertoires and example set lists to get a feel of the music they play and the vibes they create. Most of our bands will have songs to suit all ages, and from experience doing past events will know which pieces work to get a crowd having a great time.
Our bands will be in touch with you before the performance, and many will consult on set-lists to make sure you get to hear some of your favourite songs, as well as miss out on any you don't like.
Your typical disco and funk wedding band will require amplification, so most supply their own high quality and fully PAT tested PA and lighting rigs to create the right atmosphere up on stage. Usually the bands supply recorded music for between their sets, and many will include your first dance and/or a special request included in their booking fee.
There'll quite probably be a host of optional extras for you to choose from! Many bands already have string and horn sections, though for some these are optional extras to give you more flexibility. Some bands offer professional manned DJ services to get you dancing into the evening, acoustic daytime sets for some mellow listening, and upgrades to their sound equipment if you've got more guests or a larger venue.
Always double check what your band provides before you book, and if you're unsure, be sure to get in touch.

Excellent company from start to finish. When we initially enquired for a wedding singer we had very specific requirements for our wedding day. Having looked through the large portfolio of singers we found just the performer. We had everything lined up until a last minute change meant we had to change our singer. Entertainment nation were very responsive in their communication and extremely helpful. We owe a lot of thanks to these guys as they helped arrange a performer whom of which gave the performance of a lifetime, and truly made our wedding day a special occasion. Superb service and a company that massively cares about their customer's needs. Thanks again!!
