Wedding Entertainment with Live Music (aka the Secret Sauce)

There’s a certain kind of magic that only wedding entertainment with live music can deliver. The kind where the crowd doesn’t just watch — they *join in*. Where your cousin ends up onstage with a tambourine, your nan is screaming the chorus of “Valerie,” and nobody wants it to end.

We’re Funk City Band, and if there’s one thing we know, it’s this: live music transforms a wedding into a full-blown celebration. Whether you’re planning an elegant black-tie affair or a muddy, flower-crown-filled festival wedding, we’re the band that brings the goods. And by “goods,” we mean: tunes, energy, charisma, and yes — a horn section if you want it.

Why live music is the ultimate wedding entertainment

Let’s be honest. Spotify playlists are fine for car rides and dishwashing. But on your wedding day? Nah. That’s a job for musicians who can feel the room, build the vibe, and create unforgettable moments in real-time.

Live music brings:

  • 🔥 Energy that builds with the crowd
  • 🎤 Interaction — from singalongs to dance-offs
  • 💃 Movement — no one can resist a real groove
  • 🎶 Personalised touches — like a custom first dance

In short: live bands make weddings feel alive.

Pick your perfect line-up

Funk City Band offers everything from an intimate 3-piece band (perfect for smaller venues) to the full-on, dancefloor-melting 7-piece extravaganza with horns, vocal harmonies, and a whole lotta party.

Want something in the middle? Our popular 4-piece band hits that sweet spot between energy and space-saving. Whatever your venue, guest count, or budget, we’ll shape the sound to suit.

We’ve done it all — and we’ve loved every second

Country manor? ✔️

Festival-style tipi? ✔️

Castle in Scotland? ✔️

Private garden party where the groom entered on a tractor? Also ✔️.

Over the years, we’ve played more than 600 weddings — and every one of them has taught us how to read a room, hype a crowd, and keep the energy rolling from first dance to final encore. You can see what couples have said about us over on our reviews page.

Not just music. Entertainment.

We bring more than songs. We bring interaction. Wireless mics so we can wander into the crowd. Sax solos on the dance floor. Surprise mashups. We DJ between sets if you want. We’ll MC your bouquet toss or hype the best man speech. Whatever the moment needs — we’ve got it.

And if you want to go full party-animal? We’re also known for our festival wedding vibes, complete with glitter, horns, and all-out chaos (the good kind, promise).

Ready to bring your wedding to life?

If you’re having a party and want a brilliant band that actually gets the vibe and gets people dancing. This is really important to us. If that sounds good— get in touch. We’d love to be the fun part of your night. If you have a wedding or event in a different place we are local to Bath, Wiltshire, Bristol, Somerset and Reading too although we travel absolutely everywhere. *Except the moon*. When people dance too much in zero gravity they have a tendency to float off which can cause problems with our insurance.
