  3. Is a Wedding Musician a Good Idea? • Cost Factors • Sometimes a musician is a cheaper alternative. They are more affordable because they offer a few less extras that would come with a DJ and they need less space and equipment. If the musician is a whole band then the money might be a bit more, but this is something to compare side by side when factoring it all together. • They Sing • Musicians are more hands on and actually sing the songs that you want them to play. This means you need to make sure that they sing the right songs for the day. Choosing a cover band that only does a certain type of song is not going to go well.

  4. Is a Wedding Musician a Good Idea? • If you are looking for something more pop-like or want a specific artist’s music to be played then this might be a bit more difficult to achieve with a musician but there are many talented artists out there that can perform the music of those that you love and listen too and sound exactly like them. • They are More Personable • When it comes to getting a band or a musician, they seem to be more personable because they are putting their hard earned time, soul and heart into what they do. They love to sing and this is why they are up on that stage singing for your wedding. It is what they do.

  5. Talking with the Wedding Band About Your Wedding Music • The wedding music that the band plays matters. It is going to make or break whether or not you hire the band that is going to be playing the music. When you hire someone for your wedding, you expect them to be able to deliver when it comes to the many songs that you need to have played. When they do, you have an easier time being able to choose them over some of the other options that you might have had. • When you speak with them for the first time, make sure to find out what they are able to play and how they are able to play it. Can they play your specific wedding song?

  6. Talking with the Wedding Band About Your Wedding Music • If they are unable to play the specific wedding song that you want then you are not going to want to hire them for the job. You want someone that is going to be able to provide you with the right songs. • Also, keep in mind that cover bands are usually not the best way to go when it comes to choosing a wedding band to go with. They are there when the time comes to hire them for a party but when it comes to dancing and having a good mix of music then you want someone that is able to provide versatility when it comes to the music that they play.

  7. Why Choose a Wedding Band Over a DJ? • When it comes to which you should choose, you need to make sure to go with the one that you relate with the best. This is because you want to make sure that you have everything that is needed without having to worry about a thing. • Those that you work with are the ones that make you feel the most comfortable and provide you with the essentials that are needed when it comes to working with someone that you can actually relate too and not someone that is just pushing the music at you through a MP3 player and a loud speaker. • The wedding band is more personable which is why so many choose to use them for their weddings instead of a DJ. You want someone that you can relate too and that speaks to the crowd and is able to keep the party going. Sometimes a DJ is unable to do this for a wedding party and you need someone that can. This is why a wedding band is helpful at the wedding for the guests.

  8. Tips for Hiring the Right Wedding Bands • Speak with them in person • This should always be something that you do when hiring anyone. You need to make sure that they can provide you with the necessary help that is needed. Not only do you want to speak with them in person to find out what they are like, but you can actually ask them to sing for you, as well. This way, you know what you are getting before you hire them. • Find out their rates • You want to make sure that you know how much they charge before you move forward with them. You do not want to worry about not being able to pay them when it comes to the price that they charge being out of your budget. Sometimes they might want a retainer to hold their place until the date of the wedding, but this is usually a small percentage.

  9. Tips for Hiring the Right Wedding Bands • Know what music they are able to perform • Not everyone is able to perform the type of music you are into or want to have. Since they are a band, they can only sound one way or so. This is why it is important to make sure that they can provide you with the music you want to have for your wedding. When you do this, you know you are hiring correctly. • Ask family and friends for referrals • Someone that you know might know someone else that is able to help with the wedding band and music that is being performed. When this happens, you already know that the person you know loved them which means you should be someone that also loves their services. It is still good to speak with them about their services, but you have a better idea of knowing that they are good for what they are doing.

  10. Top 10 Tips for Hiring Wedding Musicians • This is your special day so keep that in mind when choosing any service for the day. Do not settle and always work with someone you feel great about from beginning to end. • Always talk with the musicians you are thinking of hiring for the job. You want to get to know them a bit better to find out if you relate to them in any way. • Make sure to check the musicians references and background to find out what others have thought of their services or if they have been in the industry long. • Know if they work on a contract or not, since this is something that is going to decide whether or not you want to work with them because you want to be able to be covered. • Do they only sing specific songs or can they provide you with the songs that you need to have for your wedding day? Some musicians only do specific bands, singers or music so this is a must-ask question.

  11. Top 10 Tips for Hiring Wedding Musicians • How do you charge? By the hour? A flat fee? This is important to know because you want to make sure that you have enough budgeted for their costs. • Can they provide the necessary help that is needed when it comes to the first dance, father/daughter dances, etc? Some musicians are able to do this and others do not like doing this. • Can you hook up an MP3 player for some specific songs so that we have them? Are you opposed to using this type of technology? • Can you show me some of the work that you have done for other weddings or give me an example song that you can sing and then perform it for me right now? You want to hear them before you hire them most definitely so always ask to sample the music and their voice. • Visit with a handful of musicians to find out what each of them is able to provide you with when it comes to using them for your wedding day. You need someone that can be there for your day but you should not limit yourself to just one or two options with so many out there.
