Royal Flush know how to entertain and below is the proof! You can read all our reviews here.
“I can’t recommend these guys enough! We were nervous about picking the band for our wedding as we both feel that if the music is not great, it is difficult to get the party going. Seventh Second were recommended to us and as soon as we contacted them, they were responsive and helpful which put us at ease. Our requirements were a bit complicated because there was only a very small window in which the band would be able to set up so they needed to do an initial set up, and then clear their stuff away while the guests had dinner and then re-set up quickly after the meal. Nothing was too much trouble – they took the time to understand the factors involved and adapted their normal routine to fit. They tailored their set and learnt some new songs for us. Best of all they learnt our first dance which, due to the song we had picked (Carlos Santana) we were not expecting them to learn because it was so tricky.”
Sadiq Mohamed – London, 2019
“I was in charge of the music at my sisters wedding and decided to book Royal Flush. We couldn’t have picked better, we had the best night! Not only are they all super great musicians, they are also wonderful people and are really great to have at your party.”

The communication beforehand was spot on, the band have a list of songs they can play and we selected a whole bunch before the big day.

They played all our favourites and took requests from my guests – they kept everyone on the dance floor all night! (And we didn’t stop until 1am!!)

Johnn Wallace – Nottingham, 2021
“I found Rockaoke Live on Seventh Second and knew immediately they were the kind of band we wanted for our wedding. Our wedding was in Italy, and given we live in the US, we knew we were taking a huge risk selecting a band online, having never heard them live, flying them to our venue and crossing our fingers everything would work out on the day. We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out.”
Lucy Jarvis – Italy, 2023

“What a band! The set-lists were varied enough to please all ages, and our guests genuinely commented afterwards about how they made the evening. If you are looking for a wedding band, choose these guys, they are excellent.”
John Black – Preston, 2023
“We hired Velvet Groove for our wedding in June 2023 and we honestly could not be happier with the experience. We found the band to be extremely professional throughout the entire planning process and with a reassuring attention to detail, which meant we had full faith in them to deliver on the night – particularly after watching them perform live in Didsbury beforehand. When our big day finally arrived, they were absolutely fantastic and played two one-hour sets that had our guests on the dance floor all evening, providing a real atmosphere to the night. Thank you Velvet Groove!”

I’ve covered some of the usual questions couples ask us, but if you need more info or have specific questions, feel free to check out our other helpful guides, hit up our FAQ or T&Cspages, or email or call us. We’re always around and happy to share expert advice without any strings attached.
Can I check out your funk and disco wedding bands before booking?
Our funk and disco wedding bands usually perform at private events so catching them live can be a bit tricky unless they invite you or host a special public showcase. Most of our bands have live gig footage on their profile pages, giving you a solid taste of their performance style. If you’re itching to see them live, contact us and we’ll do our best to arrange it.
How far ahead should I book a live wedding band?
We’d say you should hire your dream wedding band at least 12 months ahead, especially for those prime Saturdays between May and September. Sometimes 8 to 4 months beforehand can be enough time, especially for off-peak days. Just remember, the most popular funk and disco bands get booked way in advance, so don’t leave it too late if you’ve got your heart set on one.
What are the prices for funk and disco wedding bands in the UK?
Prices can vary depending on the band size, style, and whether it’s peak or off-peak season. Check out our guide for all the details. Generally, 3-piece bands go for around £750 to £1200, 4-piece bands from £850 to £2000, 5-piece bands from £1200 to £2600, and 6-piece bands from £1800 to £3000. Premium 12-piece showbands usually start at £8000.
Our bands are typically £100 to £200 cheaper to hire than elsewhere since we don’t add any commission.
Do I need to feed the band at my wedding?
Since live wedding bands are usually with you for around at least 8 hours, it’s a good idea to offer some food and drinks during their stay. Most contracts cover this, but it’s always good to check for any dietary requests or preferences. Treating the band well means they’ll bring their A-game for sure!
