Height Requirement is a Halifax wedding band with a defined musical lane: live 1980s dance music for weddings and private functions. The band’s current official website identifies it as Halifax’s “Totally 80’s dance party band” and says it specializes in weddings and private functions.

This profile replaces the unrelated legacy website association with the confirmed official identity at heightrequirement.ca. Last reviewed: August 13, 2026. The official site does not publish a street address or telephone number, so neither is presented here as a confirmed business contact.

Services and specialization

Height Requirement presents itself as a live dance party band built around songs from the 1980s. Its official site says the group recreates iconic tunes from that decade and specializes in weddings and private functions. The focus is therefore best suited to couples who want a reception band with an unmistakably retro, sing-along dance-floor direction rather than a genre-neutral act.

The official site also says the band is willing to learn one or two songs for an event, including songs outside its 1980s focus. That may be relevant for a first dance or another key moment, but couples should confirm the specific song, arrangement and lead time before booking.

Live 1980s-focused dance-party music
Wedding and private-function entertainment
Potentially one or two event-specific song requests

Music and wedding planning fit

The band’s official wedding page confirms that weddings are a current service category, although it provides a brochure image rather than detailed written package information. Height Requirement’s home page describes its sound as a mix of 1980s material, instruments and modern technology intended to create an authentic live sound.

This is likely a more natural fit for a reception where guests are expected to enjoy 1980s pop, rock and dance-era favourites. Couples seeking a fully classical ceremony programme, a current-chart-only set or a DJ-led format should ask directly whether the band can meet those requirements.

Ask how the 1980s repertoire is divided across the reception timeline
Confirm whether requested songs can be performed live or need an alternative arrangement
Discuss ceremony, cocktail-hour and dinner-music needs separately from the dance set

Service area and who it may suit

Height Requirement is based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Its official corporate-events page says the band has played throughout Nova Scotia and may travel farther when an event budget accommodates expenses. While that travel statement appears on the corporate-events page, it is useful context for wedding enquiries and should be confirmed for the specific date and venue.

The clearest local fit is for Halifax and other Nova Scotia celebrations seeking a full live band with a retro 1980s identity. For weddings outside the Halifax area, ask about travel availability, travel costs, timing and any venue-specific production requirements.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the band’s specific, consistent positioning: it is a Halifax-based 1980s dance party band that names weddings and private functions as specialties. The official site also says Height Requirement has brought this format to Nova Scotia for more than 10 years, and identifies vocalists Jeff Douglas and Jade Bennett as part of the current presentation.

The practical limitation is that the official wedding page contains limited text about inclusions, equipment, set lengths and package structure. These are not negatives; they are details that are not currently documented on the official website and should be clarified in a quote or booking discussion.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. The official website directs prospective clients to make contact for a quote, but does not list wedding package prices, minimums, deposits, travel fees or overtime rates.

Do not rely on pricing connected to the legacy Kartbahn website; it belongs to a different business and is not evidence for Height Requirement. Request a written quote that identifies the performance scope and all applicable costs.

Current prices are not published on the official pages reviewed.

Contact and booking

The confirmed official contact route is the Height Requirement website. Its home page directs visitors to call to arrange a band booking, and its event page asks prospective clients to contact the band with event details for a quote. Because no phone number or street address is published on the official pages reviewed, use the website’s current contact route rather than the legacy details.

A useful initial enquiry should include the wedding date, venue municipality, expected guest count, desired music periods and whether there are key songs to discuss. This gives the band the information needed to assess availability and travel.

What couples should confirm

Before reserving Height Requirement, confirm availability and obtain the exact package description in writing. The official site establishes the band’s 1980s-focused wedding specialization, but it does not publicly set out a standard wedding itinerary or rate card.

Ask how the band will handle the parts of your day you want covered, from arrival and ceremony through dinner and dancing. It is also sensible to confirm the venue’s space, power, sound-limit and load-in expectations with both the venue and the band before finalizing plans.

Performance start and finish times, breaks and set lengths
Whether ceremony, cocktail hour or dinner music is available
Song-request process and deadline
Travel, equipment, sound requirements, contract terms and payment schedule

Current identity note

The supplied legacy website, kartbahn.ca, is now the website of Kartbahn Racing, an outdoor karting business. It does not match the Height Requirement name or wedding-music service. Current independent search results and the official heightrequirement.ca site confirm a separate official identity for Height Requirement as a Halifax-based 1980s dance party band that specializes in weddings and private functions.

The former address and phone number were therefore not carried forward as confirmed profile data. They may be historical listing details, but they are not published on the current official band website reviewed for this profile.
