Unlike many other wedding bands, The Lonely Weekenders are not an agency. They operate in a boutique fashion, always performing with the same core band members. They love performing with each other, practising with each other, and jamming with each other! It makes such a difference to the sound and energy of a performance when the musicians are friends. They're all about keeping the wedding entertainment process simple!

Most bands are happy/willing to travel and will build this into your invoice. We don’t charge travel for gigs that are within a 45 minute drive of where we are based (in our case: Geelong), beyond that we charge for petrol and in some instances accommodation (so we aren’t driving home at crazy hours). When you search for your wedding band or DJ start with looking for bands that are based in the nearest city/regional city. Most people would consider all our local wedding venues regional, but for us they’re just around the corner!
