Laurel Highlands Wedding Band
A live wedding band for mountain resorts, barns and lodges in the Laurel Highlands, from Nemacolin and Seven Springs to Ligonier.
Inquire About Your DateThe Laurel Highlands are the ridges southeast of Pittsburgh in Westmoreland, Fayette and Somerset counties, a region of ski resorts, state forests and old farms an hour or more from the city. Weddings here are often destination weekends: guests drive out on Friday, stay at a resort or a lodge, and celebrate in a ballroom, a barn or a ceremony site among the pines.
Pittsburgh is a home market for us, and the drive out to the ridges is part of the job: we bring our own gear and handle travel and setup ourselves. The resorts here also host company retreats and conferences, and we play corporate events as well as weddings.

Planning a wedding in Laurel Highlands
Mountain weather
Weather on the ridges can turn faster than it does in the city, and summer storms and early snow both happen. Choose a venue with an indoor fallback for an outdoor ceremony, and give guests and vendors extra time on mountain roads.
Resort rules and timing
Resorts often set end times for ballroom events and keep their own lists of approved vendors. Ask the catering team for both early and share them with us so the timeline fits.
Barns for a big crowd
The Hayloft and the Barn at Ligonier Valley each hold 200 or more. That is a full-band crowd, and our dinner rotation keeps live music going through the meal while the musicians take turns eating.
