One day, one sound

From "I do" to the last dance.

We're eight musicians and we carry your whole day, from the champagne reception through dinner and the party to the afterparty. We accompany your ceremony, bring live jazz to set the mood at the champagne reception, keep dinner warm with gentle background music, and when the dance floor calls, our horn section takes over with real live energy. And if you want, we'll bring a DJ along afterward to keep the night going.

And before any of that happens, we sit down with you and plan your day through. We work out together which songs you want, which lineup fits and what each moment should sound like. You get exactly what you have in mind. Rather skip the live jazz at the reception and have soul, acoustic pop or something else entirely? No problem. We build around you, not around a standard set.

Pricing

What does a wedding band cost?

There is no flat answer, because no two wedding days are the same. What drives the price: how big the line-up should be, how long we play, whether the ceremony is included, whether the afterparty with DJ is part of it, and how far we travel.

So you will not get a price tag from us, you will get an offer that fits your day. Tell us your date and what you have in mind, and we put together an individual quote, with the line-up, the running order and what is included set out exactly as you imagine it.

Common questions

Questions you ask us

Do you play the ceremony too?

Yes, gladly, on request. We always play the ceremony as a duo. That sits right in a church or a registry office and leaves the moment room to breathe. Just tell us what you imagine for the entrance, the vows and the walk back out.

What line-up plays the drinks reception?

A duo, a trio or a jazz combo, depending on how much space there is and how much sound you want. All three stay discreet enough that your guests can talk without raising their voices.

How long do you play?

A typical wedding day with us: drinks reception from 3pm, then dinner and party from 6pm until midnight. That is not a fixed package, just the shape most couples choose. If you want to start earlier, finish later or run the day differently, we follow your plan.

How much space do you need?

Roughly eight by five metres for the full eight-piece line-up. The smaller reception line-up needs far less. If you are unsure whether your venue works, send us photos or a floor plan and we will tell you.

Do we need to organise sound equipment?

No. We bring our own sound system (PA) and lights. All we need from the venue is power and a space to set up.

How long does setup take?

Setup and soundcheck usually take two hours. We agree the timing with you and the venue beforehand, so none of it lands in the middle of your drinks reception.

Can we request songs?

Yes. Your first dance song is in regardless. Beyond that we talk through what you definitely want to hear and what should never be played.

Do you still need a DJ?

No. Our sound engineer does the DJ set and we have worked together for years. You book one team that knows each other, rather than two suppliers meeting for the first time on your wedding day. And if you would rather bring your own DJ, that is no problem either.

Do you travel outside Munich?

Munich and anything within a two hour drive is routine for us. Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Rosenheim, Garmisch or Salzburg, for example, plus regions like the Chiemgau and the Allgäu. Longer trips work too, we have played in Berlin, in Italy and in Austria. We just need a bit more notice for those.

How far in advance should we ask?

In high season from May to August, ideally around six months. Shorter notice is not hopeless, just ask and we will see what we can do.
