1. will a band, dj, or a
mix of both suit my wedding? (you and your fianc?might
not agree on one, so both might be desirable. for example, the band
can play for the first half of the reception, and the dj can spin
tunes for the second half. find a dj or band that will suggest music
and/or play your picks) |
2. are the band and/or
dj available on the day of your wedding? can you get confirmation
that they will be available and on time in the event that another
wedding is on their schedule on your wedding date? (be
cautious of those who tell you that confirmation in writing is not
needed regarding their working your wedding on a specific date and
time) |
3. is the band willing
to follow a schedule of pre-selected music to supplement events
(bridal party dance, father/daughter dance, dinner music) during the
reception? (get a commitment in writing for this too!)
|
4. is the band or dj
within your budget? (bands and dj抯 fees can range
anywhere between $150 to $300.00 per hour, and less if they are
students. know overtime charges and if there is a 2-hour minimum. if
you are having trouble deciding what you want with what you have to
spend, ask friends and family for assistance with this in the form
of a wedding gift) |
