Wedding Band Christchurch
Your Wedding, Sorted
We’ve played hundreds of weddings across Christchurch and New Zealand. Live music for your ceremony, canapés and a packed-dance-floor reception — with all the production included.
Your Day, In Safe Hands
Relax — We’ve Got This
We know planning a wedding can be stressful. Take a breath — this part is sorted. We’ve played hundreds of weddings, and we read every room like it’s our own big day.
Hundreds of weddings
Seasoned professionals who’ve done this countless times. Nothing on your day will faze us — we’ve seen it all and we keep it smooth from the first note to the last dance.
Sets built around your night
We tailor the songs and tempo all the way through — easing in early, then lifting the room into singalongs and a packed dance floor exactly when it matters. And we read the room all night long: if your crowd is ready to party early, we’re there in an instant. One look between the band and we switch the next song on the fly — no rigid setlist, we just ride the wave with your guests.
Your guests, involved
We don’t just play at your guests — we get them up, singing and dancing. The crowd is always part of the show.
Your requests, covered
Got a must-play or a first-dance song? If we know it, it’s in. If we don’t, we’ll do our absolute best to learn it for your day.
Put your trust in us — and enjoy your night.

Jonathan "Jono" Lauti
For the bigger shows we bring our own dedicated front-of-house engineer. Jono runs the desk so the mix sounds huge in the room and the whole production lands — not just a band plugged into the house PA. It's the difference between a gig and a proper show.

Duane & John Acoustic Duo
♪Smooth Loop Pedal Vibes
John on the loop pedal building rich layers under Duane's smooth vocals. These aren't standard acoustic covers — we take mainstream songs (even the upbeat ones) and reimagine them as our own slowed-down, stripped-back renditions with a flavour all our own. The perfect dinner-music / background vibe for canapés, ceremonies and intimate settings.
⚇Reimagined · Acoustic · Original
🎤Boyce Avenue–style acoustic renditions
Hine & John Acoustic Duo
♪Female Focused Soul
Similar to the boys but featuring Hine's stunning female vocals. Elegant and classy background atmosphere. This option brings a touch of glamour and warmth, ideal for champagne receptions or dining where the music needs to be present but not intrusive. We cover everything from Aretha Franklin to modern soul-pop ballads.
⚇Soulful, Intimate, Classy
🎤Female Icons, Soul, Pop Ballads
💍 Ceremony & Canapés Add-On
Booking the full band for your reception? Add Hine & John for the ceremony and canapés at a specially discounted package rate. A relaxed acoustic set under the shade while guests mingle — loop pedal, acoustic guitar and Hine's soft vocals — and we'll learn your special songs for walking down the aisle. The best-value way to have live music across your whole day.

♪The Core Powerhouse
The band's compact engine room. Incredible 3-way harmonies and thumping live guitars. This option offers full volume level control, making it incredibly versatile for venues with sound restrictions. Designed to fit into small spaces while still delivering a massive, high-energy performance.
