Without a doubt picking the right Wedding Band for your once-in-a-life-time bash, pleasing every single guest, is something that entails a lot of research and time – time you may not have to spare with all the other necessary details to be sorted ahead of your impending nuptials.
Having been married myself, I understand that it is important that your Music Act is there with and for you, and doesn’t look as though the band has done this a million times before and are awaiting the final song.
You’d hope for not only a set list preferred by you & your party, for the dance floor to be packed, sing-along laughter, but also a personal experience from the artists, making it YOUR performance. This day is the biggest of your life after all. It is supposed to be simply perfect and everyone there present to celebrate you and your other half.
Please allow for me, on behalf of Audio Networks, to introduce to you the fabulous The Firm – a truly wonderful Wedding and Corporate Events Band that understands their craft and what it means to perform for the Bride & Groom, giving you an intimate performance, one that was meant just for YOU and YOUR wedding party!!

Laura, lead singer with The Firm, has this to say:
Why did you get into “Wedding Singing”?
We started in the wedding / corporate industry about 5 years ago after we had done the Pub/Club scene for 2 or 3 years as we felt there was a gap in the market for a female Front Women at the time and still now even there are very few “Female Fronted Bands”
There are lots of bands with female singers but they usually are second fiddle to the male front man and don’t sing the majority of the set!
Do you have one favourite memory during one particular performance?
I’m such a romantic at heart so I have to say my favourite moment of every wedding is when the dance floor is packed “cue the Awwws” and the newlyweds look around watching everyone having such a great time, and it’s like they give each other this look of “Yeah, we did it, we got it right”
Planning your wedding can be so daunting, especially when it comes to suppliers, bands, DJs etc – so this moment, every now and then I catch it in the corner of my eye, reminds me of why I do it in the first place 🙂
What do the wedding gigs mean to you personally?
I think the saying goes “You’ll never work a day in your Life as long as you do what you love”
This couldn’t be more true for us, we’re extremely lucky we are so busy and get to do what we love. So every booking, honestly means a lot!!
What is the atmosphere/friendship between you and the band members like, giving you’re the only gal in the band?
TERRIBLE, the lads are such divas; I joke I joke!!! We’ve been together for 7 years so it really is happy families to be fair, every single one of us is extremely passionate about what we do and how we do it, so the rehearsal room can get a bit heated from time to time but that’s just because we care! We care that the product we are selling is perfect! So every now and then we might bang heads over how a song is finished etc but again that’s because we are perfectionists!!
Apart from that we take regular walks, drink Piña Coladas and dance in the rain…. Together !!
What is your favourite song to perform and why?
Another very hard question ….
We have many set lists / styles /genres so to nail it down is almost impossible so I’ll give you a selection
My favourite song of All time to sing is “Natural Women – Aretha Franklin”
But there’s rarely time for that as our party set is so High Energy, so my favourite “Party Song” to perform is probably a tie between “Uptown Funk”( Love Bruno ) or “Don’t Stop me Now” by “Queen”
We also love to perform “Live and Let Die” it’s great craic !!

Hi
Sorry about the late reply, we have just got back from our honeymoon!
Can I firstly say a massive thank you to you guys and the band they were absolutely fantastic and we loved having them as a part of our wedding!
Laura was brilliant she came up and introduced herself and made us feel at ease and informed us what was happening and what time the band would be on etc. The dance floor was packed the whole night and everyone commented on how amazing the band were! So obviously we were over the moon with them!
Thank you so much and please let the band know how happy we were with them and we hope everything goes ok with the baby!!
