The Highwires – A High-Energy Wedding Band That Keeps the Dancefloor Full!
If you want a wedding evening that feels like a proper celebration — packed dancefloor, hands in the air, and guests talking about your band long after the last song — The Highwires are the band for you!
We’re a high-energy, professional 5-piece wedding and function band with over 15 years’ experience playing weddings, parties and corporate events across Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and beyond. Our focus is simple: create an incredible atmosphere and keep everyone dancing from the first song to the last!
So many of our bookings come from recommendations or are from people who have seen us perform at another wedding, party, or corporate event and our feedback is always amazing... we aim to make the evening a night to remember long into the future,
What couples love about working with The Highwires

- A packed dancefloor – we read the room, interact with your guests and know how to keep the momentum going

A band you can trust with your big day
We’ve been trusted by hundreds of couples — as well as major brands and venues — since 2008. We pride ourselves on being friendly, professional and easy to work with, helping you plan the perfect evening entertainment rather than just “turning up and playing”.

We offer flexible packages to suit different venues and timings, with evening reception packages typically starting from £1,400.00 depending on date, location and requirements.

Experience
How much space do you need, and what do you bring with you?
We’re completely self-contained and bring all of our own professional sound and lighting equipment. For our full 5-piece band, we typically need a clear performance area of around 4m x 3m, plus access to standard power sockets.
We’ll liaise directly with your venue ahead of the day to confirm setup times, access and sound levels, so everything runs smoothly without you needing to worry about the technical details.
Can you learn our first dance or special song requests?
Yes — we’re very happy to learn and perform your first dance live, and we can also accommodate a small number of special song requests where possible. We can also tailor the DJ music between sets to encorporate other choices.
We’ll discuss your choices with you in advance and let you know what will work best live, helping make your evening feel personal and memorable while keeping the energy on the dancefloor high.
What happens between sets and at the end of the night?
We provide a DJ-style music service between live sets and after the band finishes, so there’s never a lull in the evening. This is all included as part of our standard wedding packages. We've also put together some bespoke mixed music sets such as UK Garage for client.
You’re welcome to share a playlist or preferred styles in advance, and we’ll keep the party going right through to the end of the night.
Do you have insurance and PAT-tested equipment?
Yes — we’re fully covered with Public Liability Insurance and all of our equipment is regularly PAT tested. We’re experienced working with venues of all sizes and can provide documentation on request.
