How to Choose the Right Band Size for Your Wedding
Trio, five-piece or the full lineup? Here's how to match the band to your day.
One of the first questions couples ask us is how big the band should be. The honest answer: it depends on your space, your guest count, and the feeling you're after.
A quick guide
- Cocktail hour & ceremony — a trio keeps things intimate and elegant.
- Dinner & first dances — a five-piece adds vocals and warmth.
- Full reception — the full band brings the horns and the energy.
Not sure where you land? Use the band builder on our services page, or just tell us about your day and we'll suggest a lineup.
