Music. It has the power to excite and entertain the guests at your wedding reception and get them out on the dance floor and party. It can make your first dance as husband and wife a magical experience.

So deciding on the right band for one of the biggest moments in your life is crucial. Music can make or break a party, and you need to find a band who know this.

Firstly, you must decide when planning the music for your reception, do you choose a band, a DJ, or both. The major difference being the price. DJs can range anywhere from €300 to €1,200, whereas live bands can cost more than €2,000.
Some bands will offer you a package deal where the DJ is included in the price and you can save money with this option.

When you are having a wedding reception, nothing compares to the excitement a band gives you.

When you decide to hire a band you need to decide what kind of band will be best for your reception. There is a wide range of bands to choose from, this can be an exhausting experience. Determining the size of your reception, the acoustics of the room, can help your mind decide on whether you want a three-piece band, a four-piece or maybe even an eight- piece band.

When you know the size of the band, you'll need a band that can vary their set and perform the songs you know will go down well at your reception. Think of the genre of music and what kind of a sound you want, swing, jazz, classic rock or a mixture of everything, find bands that can perform in those musical genres.

After finding band names to choose from, we urge you to go and see bands that interest you in action. Being able to see the band you are thinking about is a great way to make up your mind. Watch how the band members interact with their audience and how well they play their instruments, all of this will help you when it comes time to make a decision.

If you can't see the band in action, ask for a CD, DVD or a videotape of one of their performances, or you could arrange a face to face meeting with the band.

When you have chosen a band make sure you get a contract or a booking form to confirm your booking, this should state the band set up and playing times, venue address and payment terms. Most bands will require a deposit (normally 15% - 50%) with the final payment
made before or on the wedding reception date.
