Wedding band Seattle:
a Motown and soul revue with real staging

A wedding band in Seattle has to earn a room that does not clap easily. The Velvelettes bring a staged Motown and soul revue to the city: three voices in matched vintage dress, live horns, choreography and an MC, with transparent packages from $3,400 to $12,500.

One booking is a glass-walled room over Elliott Bay, the next a brick loft in Georgetown or a winery barn out toward Woodinville, and Seattle rooms swing between the two with the weather. Seattle is a fly date from Detroit. We arrive the day before, and the stage plot, insurance certificate and power spec reach your venue in the advance, because a room this far out is one you plan twice and play once.

Peak here runs late June through September, when the dry Saturdays get spoken for 12 to 18 months out; couples chasing the short outdoor season book earliest of all. Waterfront and rooftop sites often carry a 10 pm amplified-sound cutoff, and we chart the set times backward from it so the last dance lands full instead of clipped.

The advance, in plain terms

How a Seattle date runs

Travel

Seattle is a fly date. The band arrives the day before; the stage plot, COI and power spec reach your venue in the advance.

Setup

90-minute setup, 30-minute soundcheck, two 20A circuits and about 16 by 12 ft of floor for The Revue.

Good to know

Waterfront and rooftop rooms often enforce a 10 pm amplified-sound curfew; we build the set times backward from the cutoff so the night ends full.

Before you ask

Seattle questions, answered

Is there a travel fee to Seattle?

Yes. Seattle is beyond our 150-mile no-fee radius, so travel is quoted per date, airfare and freight included, and shown plainly when you check availability. There are no surprise lines after you book.

Do you know Seattle venues?

We advance every site with your venue contact and request the floor plan, power spec and curfew terms ahead of the date. A room we have played speeds the advance; it never replaces it, because Seattle rooms change their rules season to season.

Do you play both weddings and corporate events in Seattle?

Yes. The same revue plays wedding receptions and corporate stages here, with branded show segments available for the latter, all on one contract and one COI.

Everything else a host asks first lives on the FAQ page.
