DC Synergy

The band was absolutely wonderful. Many of our guests let us know that it was their favorite part of the evening. Personally, we were wonderfully surprised when the band sang the song for our first dance rather than playing a recording. Prior to the wedding, we had a great phone call with Chris, the band manager, who was organized and full of great energy. We can't thank you enough.

I need every one to know how amazing DC Synergy is! Not only are they extremely talented but they know how to read a room to keep your dance floor packed all night! We had a very specific, somewhat complicated first dance request involving a mash up of two songs and they killed it! They engaged the crowd and were down singing on the dance floor with our guests. We have received so many compliments about how fun the band at our wedding was. They even shared the stage with us and let us have the mic for multiple songs (unplanned, but again they can read a room!). Hire them for your wedding you won't regret it!

FAQs

Find answers to your questions about our bands and booking process right here.

What is the cost to book a band for an event?

We offer bands for nearly every budget, starting around $2,000 and going up to $15,000+. Most dance bands range between $3,500 and $8,500.

Does a band provide all their instruments and sound equipment?

Bands bring instruments and sound equipment for most weddings and events, covering up to several hundred guests. For larger events, additional sound support can be arranged for a fee or through a vendor you provide.

Do bands provide lighting?

All bands provide basic lighting for their performance area, but this isn’t decor lighting for the whole space. Light stands typically feature a few white or colored LED or par cans. Some bands can adjust lighting to fit the event, or they can skip it if you’re working with a separate lighting vendor.

How long can I expect the band to play?

Special event bands charge a single fee for up to a 4-hour block, including breaks. They’ll play a preset playlist during breaks, scheduled around natural pauses like speeches or cake cutting. For a 4-hour event, bands need at least 45 minutes of break time, usually split into two 20-25 minute breaks. Some bands offer a three-hour no-break option and can add overtime for an extra fee.

How far in advance should I book a band?

Spring and fall Saturday events often book a year or more in advance, with popular dates typically securing bands 8-15 months ahead. Non-Saturday events book closer to the date, and we often help clients with shorter timelines (2-6 months) find great bands. Booking early increases your options for in-demand bands, so reach out soon!
