FAQs About Our Wedding Bands in Dorset


Q. What exactly is a collective wedding band?

A. A collective wedding band, or "collective," is a flexible musical group formed for particular events rather than being a fixed lineup. This approach allows musicians from diverse backgrounds to come together for specific occasions, offering a unique and flexible approach tailored to your wedding.


Q. How much do you charge for your wedding bands in Dorset?

A. Our wedding bands in Dorset are priced between £799 and £1499. The price can differ based on several factors, such as your chosen wedding date, the location, the size of the band, add-ons, and any changes to the call time. For a quote, please head over to the bands' websites and fill in the contact form provided.


Q. What do we need to provide for the band on the day of the wedding?

A. We'd be grateful if you could provide food and non-alcoholic drinks for the band during the event. While this isn’t a contractual requirement, it helps keep our musicians refreshed and energised between each performance. Additionally, please ensure each band member has a parking space as close to the venue as possible. This will enable a quick load-in and soundcheck.


Q. When should we book one of your Dorset-based wedding bands?

A. To secure your preferred band, we recommend booking as early as possible - ideally 12 to 18 months in advance. Booking early avoids any last-minute issues or compromises and ensures your entertainment is set in stone well before your special day.


Q. Are we allowed to pick the band's setlist?

A. Unfortunately, clients are unable to choose the band's live setlist. Our wedding bands use their extensive experience to craft a setlist that enhances the event’s atmosphere. Their expertise ensures that they keep the dance floor lively and engaging throughout the night.


Q. How do I go about booking one of your wedding bands in Dorset?

A. Booking a wedding band in Dorset through FPM Music Management is a straightforward process. Simply sign the contract and pay the management fee to lock in your date. We’ll contact you five weeks before your event to finalise every last detail and collect the remaining balance, which is due 28 days before the wedding. Once that’s taken care of, you can relax and leave the rest to us.
