I am looking for a band/DJ that charges under €1,000 to play at my wedding for 80 guests on Wednesday 29th July in White's Hotel, Wexford. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Ask the hotel for their list, theyed know who's local who might do it for that. I think youd have to set some expectations that youre looking at a 2-3 piece, ask that band then will they DJ afterwards.

if you cant find a band you like at that budget strongly suggest you hire a great DJ which will come in much less than a grand, recommend a guy called "Mr DJ" down there, he's top notch. have a google for him.

all pro wedding bands have a DJ they work with so dont limit yourself by that.

If youve just started looking, can you post your date and county (no need to to post hotel) and available bands will pm you to help narrow the search.

Look for online feedback, get a quote that suits your budget from 3-4 bands, check their setlists on their websites, (theyll be mostly the same but you might see something you like) most bands will have some feedback over time on the big wedding sites, save a couple of weekends so you can go and view your narrowed list.

If you're still not sure, come back here.

We were married 18 months ago and used a band called The Great Escape. Can't remember how much they were but it was less than 2k for band and dj. Couldn't recommend them highly enough, dance floor was full all night and they are great craic. They have studio days where you can go see them and have them play songs that you are thinking of having. Check them out you won't be disappointed

Hi,

Getting married St Patrick's day 2016 in Cavan and on a tight budget, but I know the band is essential for the night, I'm looking for band that plays everything and a bit of trad cause of the day that's in it. Not a full trad session, a little sprinkle of it. Budget wise, we'd kinda need the band and dj covered for the guts of 1800. Any suggestions or recommendations? Will I be able to find a decent band for this price?

Hi All

Getting married in 3 months and have booked Xtra Mile Wedding Band. Just wondering if anyone has ever had them? I've just gone onto their website and noticed its suspended and I'm getting a little worried.
I can't seen anything of them performing lately in 2015 on their Facebook page or YouTube.

Anyone that has heard or seen them and could give feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Bands are notoriously bad at updating facebook and websites. Someone may just have forgot to pay the bill for the .ie website, that happens a lot no matter what the website. Ring them and see what the story is. They're around a good while so doubt they just dropped off.

Any decent band worth their salt will update social media all the time. It's a major selling tool!

If they 'forget' will they forget your event?

Anyone have any recommendations for a small band who can still produce a good sound? we have a TINY function room booked and will defo have a DJ but wouldn't mind a couple hours of a small band who can squeeze in a tight space. Trying to avoid the sound of the 'guitar duo singing rebel songs in Temple Bar tourist traps' type arrangement tho… Not sure if it's possible

If you get a good professional DJ that can read the crowd and entertain, it would be better than having any form of a band there.

Hi all, we had an awesome band called The Goodfellas, at our wedding 2 years ago. Have just received an email from them saying ye hey have now changed their name to 'The Favours'. I've €100 voucher they've sent me to give to someone who books them for their wedding. So if anyone ends up booking them, PM and I'll forward you on the voucher. I'm probably biased but I have to say they were class!

Preset No.3

2 bands operating under the 'goodfellas' name. 1 from the north and 1 south. Always thought it was a good name. Disappointed Mick and co would change their name.
