Key Facts about Wedding Music Bands, DJs and Discos

Typical Price The average cost for a DJ for a wedding, music band, or disco setup in the UK typically ranges from £300–£1,200, depending on the experience of the performer, length of performance, day of the week, and type of service. A full wedding disco package with lighting and sound equipment may cost more, while live bands generally sit at the higher end of the price range.
Booking To secure the best talent, couples are advised to book their wedding DJ or wedding music band 6 to 12 months in advance, especially for summer weddings or peak dates. Popular acts and specialist DJs for electronic wedding songs or niche genres may get booked up even earlier.
Music Style Your chosen entertainment should reflect your vibe as a couple. Discuss your music preferences in advance - from background tunes during dinner to high-energy wedding disco hits for dancing. Make sure to include any must-play tracks, like your first dance and wedding exit songs. DJs can also create custom playlists to blend classics with modern electronic wedding songs.
Setup & Equipment A professional DJ or band should provide their own sound system, lighting, and backup gear. Ask about extras like a disco ball, LED dance floors, or a full wedding disco rig. Ensure the venue can accommodate any technical requirements, including power access and sound limits.

FAQs About Wedding DJ's, Discos and Live Weddings Bands

To choose the right wedding DJ or wedding music band, look for professional, reliable suppliers with wedding experience.

Once you’ve shortlisted a few, contact them to confirm availability and ensure they can deliver your preferred vibe, from electronic wedding songs to your perfect wedding exit song.

It’s best to book your wedding DJ or wedding music band 12 months in advance to secure your preferred choice. Top entertainers get booked quickly, especially for peak dates, so once you find a wedding band or DJ you love, don’t wait-secure them early to avoid disappointment.

Most wedding DJs and wedding bands bring their own equipment, including decks, instruments, PA systems, microphones, and often wedding disco lighting. However, it's important to confirm with your chosen act if the venue needs to supply anything-like power access, a stage area, or additional sound gear. Always check requirements in advance to avoid last-minute surprises.

The average cost of a wedding DJ in the UK ranges from £300 to £700, depending on experience, location, and what’s included—like wedding disco lighting or custom playlists. Premium DJs with advanced setups or all-day coverage may charge £1,000 or more. Always check what's included in the price before booking.
