WONDERLAND - award winning wedding band Full Description
With male and female lead singers, WONDERLAND is one of the most versatile and professional function bands in Scotland today. Their wealth of experience, having played more than 500 weddings over the years, ensures you really can't go wrong booking them for your wedding dance. They play a wide range of modern and classic songs and include a selection of traditional ceilidh dances, during which band leader Steve will call the moves and encourage your guests to join in - even if they've never done these dances before! A disco is supplied as standard to give you continuous music all night. You'll be asked for a list of up to 20 of your favourite songs a few weeks before your big day - and these can be absolutely any songs at all. This ensures you get a great mix of songs to keep your guests entertained plus some of your own personal taste in music too. WONDERLAND come completely "self-contained" - they will bring their own sound and light equipment, which is fully PAT tested and the band have Public Liability Insurance supplied by The Musicians' Union. Every enquiry will be responded to promptly and a free wedding CD and detailed quote will be supplied with absolutely no obligation. Please get in touch!

Hi Steve, I never took the opportunity to say thank you very much to both you and Claire last Saturday for playing at our wedding. So thank you very much. Apologies for the late start. Everyone had a great time and there were plenty positive comments made regarding the music. Thanks again. Louise & Scott

Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

What is your most memorable wedding?

When we played the 2nd song at one wedding - a father and daughter song - but the father died years ago in a tragic accident. The bride was deaf but her mum signed the lyrics to her as she danced. No one apart from the bride's mum and the band knew this was going to happen. That was incredible to witness.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Professional. Smiling. Non-stop. Impressive. Slick.

What about your business are you most proud of?

We've been going from strength to strength since 1993 and we still love what we do.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Take out wedding insurance. It's remarkably inexpensive. Over the years we seen a few weddings cancel for various reasons. Having a safety net to cover your spiralling costs is a must.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

We've seen quite a few wedding cakes personalised with lookalike figures and little sculptures of the couple's pets on top.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

After the initial enquiry we'd send you a detailed quote and free copy of our wedding CD - all with absolutely no obligation. We play every weekend, so if you'd like to see the band live we'd organise a date. If happy to proceed, then a 10% deposit and signed form would secure the booking. A month or so before the big day we'd be in touch regarding your personal tastes in music and ask you for a list of up to 20 of your own favourite songs. These can be absolutely any songs at all and we'd mix them in during the night.

What makes a romantic first dance?

Anything that's personal to you as a couple. This could be something slow and romantic or upbeat and quirky. As long as it means something to you.

What is your number one floor-filler?

Proud Mary

Which band from the past would you most like to have been part of?

So many! Abba or AC/DC - and that's just bands beginning with "A". :-)

What is the soundtrack to your life?

We're fans of so many styles of music but from our wedding band's point of view it would have ot be Dirty Dancing. "The Time of my Life" usually features near the end of our wedding dances - and always goes down well.
