Wow! I can’t say enough amazing things about The Waistcoats!
We looked at so many bands (often for way more money without justification) and none of them had what we were looking for – a group who can play top hits to get your guests going, but also be professional and responsible enough to manage the mood of your evening and a lot of logistical things.
[…] The cultural differences were often difficult to manage for other vendors in our wedding, but never The Waistcoats. I put my full trust in them to manage music, first dance, announcements, speeches, etc. and they were perfect.
I can’t tell you what a relief it was to have them managing things so flawlessly (and we had some pretty specific requests they managed).
Wish we could do it all again!

L.O.V.E
The Waistcoats is a wedding music band in Italy with a lot of L.O.V.E! L is for the love, detail to attention and passion we put into our work. O is for our off the charts customer satisfaction here in Italy. V is for the vast amount of songs we can play. E is for an experience, that is unique in an entertainment band from Italy.
For you that means less stress, thanks to our responsive, direct and transparent communication and complete autonomy on your wedding day.
A truly all-international band
While looking for the perfect wedding music in Italy you don’t want to be lost in translation with your band, especially on such an important event such as your own wedding. Our band members have not only lived in New York, Munich, Barcelona, Rome, Dublin and travelled all around the globe.
More important, they have experienced different cultures first hand. Which means, not only do we speak many languages, but we also give you peace of mind, knowing that you are dealing with professionals that understand your needs and expectations that go beyond language skills.
An international curriculum
There aren’t many bands whose members have done voice over work for productions such as “Atomic Blonde” and “The 15:17 to Paris” (Italian version) or that have shared the stage with international stars such as Christy Dignam from Aslan.
Or who have set up the first international Open Mic for artists in Rome. We just love to entertain.
See how we can make your wedding day a big success. We perform everywhere and play wedding music in Italy, from Lazio to Tuscany, from Venice to Sicily.
Also, venues with special requirements (e.g. low-noise) or difficult access (e.g. Ravello) are not a problem (also, our Knowledge Base has a lot of useful information for organizing entertainment for your wedding).
But we also perform abroad, and have played in Switzerland, Germany, France, Spain, Ireland and many more countries!
Our vast experience allows us to offer you the best value for your money, making sure everything runs smoothly and as planned on your wedding day. You call. We play. You have the time of your life. It really is that simple.
The Waistcoats have won the Couples’ Choice Awards 2019, 2020 on WeddingWire and have won the Weddingsonline Awards 2019 and 2020 in Ireland as “Destination wedding business of the Year”, as well as being Finalists for the Awards 2025!
The Waistcoats were FANTASTIC! A friendly group with fun stage presence. They provided music for our ceremony, drinks reception and after-dinner dancing. Nothing was too much hassle and they accommodated our every need. Both their drinks reception and after dinner playlists were exactly what we were looking for (classic hits that would getlier so we could have speakers for a BBQ the day after our wedding. Everything was easy with them. 100% recommend. Thank you guys! Dominique and James
My wife and I absolutely loved the band and the choice of songs by Sal and The Waistcoats. A friendly and very talented group of guys. Our families and friends all thought they were phenomenal and we recommend them for weddings or any party plans. They added a number of songs that we requested as well to their repertoire. They helped to make our wedding better than we imagined. Thanks, Bill and Judy Geoghegan
Paul & The WaistCoats from the very beginning where brilliant, we had a vision in mind which Paul helped us realise, his guidance was invaluable in the weeks running up to the wedding, every email answered quickly every idea explored without hesitation, we bounced ideas back and forth and this made the day of the wedding incredible, the guys carried out music for the ceremony, the aperitifs, the dancing and then a DJ set! We couldn’t have asked for more, very professional and very good guys all round. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the WaistCoats..5* service all the way. Kevin & Marian PS. Thanks so much Guys we had the best craic.
