The Perfect Live Bands for your Barn Wedding
Choosing to hold your wedding in a barn allows you to truly immerse yourself in the great outdoors. The added security of a roof overhead means you will have your wedding guests dancing whatever the weather. Complement the rustic feel of your barn wedding by choosing live folk music in the vein of Mumford & Sons, Bon Iver, or The Lumineers. The boom of indie folk music stars over the past decade proves it is a failsafe choice when it comes to planning the party of a lifetime!
Creating a bespoke atmosphere
A barn is a big area to play with and you will want to choose a band that can fill the space and creates an atmosphere. Many folk wedding bands incorporate a well-known pop roster of songs, to get your guests on the dancefloor. By adding a folky tinge to familiar hits, your unique entertainment will thrill your guests whilst fitting seamlessly into your barn setup.
