    I was due to get married in May and had my Band all sorted, my Mil and Aunt passed away very close to each other so we decided to post bone our Wedding until October. Our problem now is our original Band are booked elsewhere and I am unable to find a band that's reasonably priced and available. I believe the band can make or ruin a wedding, with the circumstances I need a Band that will really get the crowd on the floor. Help please:eek::eek::eek: time is ticking and I don't fancy having the DJ all night!!

    Weightless Astronauts and Pyramid are great choices I find.

    I found both to be very overpriced as i did with Kif. They were good bands though. I went with Simon Casey heard him at several weddings and he is excellent but i do know he books up pretty fast so may be unavailable in october.

    Maybe the band you originally booked can recommend somebody? Good Luck in your band search!

    I totally second Pyramid www.pyramidlive.com

    It depends what people see as overpriced. I think they are very reasonably priced, you get what you pay for.

    Fraggle Rock are very good. (Better than the name suggests. )Try google them, if you have no luck I can try contact one of them for you. I know one of the guys a tad. They really are very good, great fun, wide range of music and hugely talented.

    If Weightless Astronauts and Pyrimad are too expensive, maybe try the Elastic Band?

    Thank you all so much for your replies, most of the Bands were booked for my date. But I had a call from my original Band yesterday and they are going to do the Wedding, I'm just over the moon and less stressed out now. Thanks again.
