The White Tree – Byron Bay Weddings Info

We've performed at hundreds of incredible Byron Bay weddings over the years. From the relaxed beachside venues to the stunning hinterland locations, Byron has something for every couple.

Within this post, we feature some information on our entertainment products that work brilliantly for a Byron Bay wedding, and we also feature some of our photography and film work which we've captured in Byron.

Note: You can view all of our prices and inclusions here for our live music, photography and film. We take pride in our price transparency. As you will see, you can enter your date and then create custom quotes on the fly. We offer discounted prices for non-Saturday weddings and winter weddings (in June, July and August).

You can book us for one, two or three services (and we offer some handy multiple service booking discounts), so we will break down each of our services one by one.

We thought we would start by explaining our live music offering and how our different products can function at Byron Bay wedding venues...

The White Tree Live Music Options

We have three different options for reception packages (based on a 5hr time frame, e.g. 5pm - 10pm):
1. The White Tree Band - featuring live instruments and live vocalists
2. The White Tree Live Mix - featuring our DJ playing WITH live instruments (sax, trumpet or percussion)
3. Best Of Both - this features our live acoustic music for the first half of the reception, followed by our TWT DJ for the later dance sets. This is the most popular option for Byron Bay Weddings venues.

Importantly, you can view the live showreel below for a quick snap shot of our Byron crew in action...

To check availability of our artists for your wedding, you can send an enquiry through our bookings + prices section. Or, contact our Byron Bay Booking Manager, Shannon, direct via [email protected] or 0433 755 465

Continuing on...

There are some sound restrictions that the Byron Bay Shire have created in certain parts of Byron, which means some Byron wedding venues have specific rules in relation to music. In our experience, we can always work with these restrictions to ensure the entertainment (and dance floor!) is a great vibe. However, it's important to know the specific sound restrictions that are applicable to each venue. For example, if you are keen to have a 5 piece band with drums and bass, then you need to choose your venue with this in mind.

Looking to our TWT Live Mix product. This package suits a number of Byron Bay venues. Our Live Mix offers the hybrid scenario of DJ + sax. This lineup enables easier control of the overall volume. It has the great modern repertoire versatility that a DJ offers, whilst also having the funky live element of the sax (or trumpet as this example below shows).

Here's a look at The White Tree Live Mix in action:

With our Best Of Both Package which features live acoustic music early on followed by our DJ for the dance sets, couples often book a soloist (typically male vocals/guitar) or a duo (typically male vocals/guitar and female vocals) or a trio. The trio could be male vocals/guitar, female vocals and saxophone, or something like male vocals/guitar, double bass and trumpet. There are quite a number of options you can go with once you get up to a three piece.

Just to get the ideas flowing, here's an example of our 2 piece:

*As you will see from the clips above, The White Tree is a boutique collective of musicians and DJs, we can present you with a number of singer, instrument and package options, which is awesome as it allows you to DIY your ultimate live music line-up.

If you're getting married at a venue which allows a full band, then we're certainly ready to roll. We can be booked as a 1 - 9 piece band and can perform chilled music early on and then rock out energetic dance sets that we're famous for.

Here are a few clips of our larger band configurations in action:

A popular band size for weddings is our 4 and 5 piece line ups.

Here's an example of our 4 piece band line up:

Finally, for any of our 5 hr reception packages, you can add live ceremony music and/or cocktail sets on a per musician basis (at a rate of $180 per hour).

We can assemble live music options for ANY Byron Bay wedding venue. So whatever your venue is, just talk to us and we'll happily recommend options that we know will work at your venue.

The White Tree Photography Options
Capturing weddings in Byron is always fun for us. The views, textures and colours are inspiring to work with. The spirit of Byron also promotes a relaxed and laid back atmosphere which can really translate positively to the photos - particularly the ceremony and couple shoot.

The White Tree Photography has 3 x simple options, Level 1, 2 or 3. These levels are separated simply by the hours of coverage and subsequently the number of photos delivered.

Level 1 features 3hrs coverage and 500 hi res photos (minimum). Level 2 features 6hrs coverage and 750 hi res photos (minimum). Level 3 features 9hrs coverage and 1000 photos (minimum). Each gallery also comes with an online highlights gallery, and all hi res photos are delivered colour AND black and white. We also create a personalised cloud-based platform for easy downloading and safe keeping.

In terms of our photographers, we have a very small/select team of photographers based in Byron and SE QLD. So, depending on your date, our bookings team will present you with the portfolios of our available photographers for you to choose from. They all deliver our renowned White Tree photography style. They also have a similar fun and chilled (yet diligent) demeanour that we feel is essential for capturing natural wedding photos.

The White Tree Film Options
The first thing to mention is that we know that some couples umm and ahh about whether to book film. It's often something that gets added into the mix down the track if the budget is in check. But remember that with the stunning scenery in Byron, it's an incredible backdrop for filming. So we encourage you to book film - you won't regret it!

Secondly, in terms of how we work our package inclusions, it's again pretty simple. We have the three Levels (1, 2 and 3), differentiated by the hours of coverage and the subsequent number of edits. The best thing to do is click on this link, which explains in detail how our film inclusions work and what our aesthetic and approach is to filming weddings.

Also, here is a snap shot of our wedding film showreel:

And here's a little snippet of Angela + Daniel's wedding at one of our favourite venues, Fig Tree:

We hope this has given you an insight into some of the incredible venues that Byron Bay Weddings have to offer, along with a snap shot of our work.
