Selecting a wedding party
band
When selecting a wedding party
band, versatility is an important consideration. Not only
should a good wedding party band have a large degree of variety
in their repertoire -- they should also be able to perform
songs in a believable and convincing manner. When performing
a rock and roll song, a band should sound like a rock and
roll band. When performing a jazz standard, a band should
sound like a jazz band -- not like a rock and roll band performing
a jazz standard. The special event entertainment band should
also be flexible enough to be able to perform at different
volume levels appropriate for different times during the course
of a wedding reception.
Other factors to consider
are reliability and stability. It is important to make sure
that a wedding party band being considered for a wedding reception
has been together for a reasonable amount of time with its
current personnel. Hiring a band that has a propensity to
change band members frequently is a situation that is best
to avoid.
There is no substitute
for the excitement of a live performance. Ask anyone if they
would rather listen to their favorite artist's CD or see their
favorite artist perform live. Perhaps the reason that many
people prefer DJ's over wedding party bands is the cost --
or the fact that some bands are not diverse enough to adequately
play the variety of music necessary for a wedding reception.
Nowadays, most wedding bands are equipped with their own DJ
equipment, which enables them to accommodate your requests
for playing CD versions of certain songs
An experienced wedding
party band is usually well versed in the flow of events at
a wedding reception. It is the band's job to work with the
function director and other professionals involved, in coordinating
the different events that take place. For example, the band
needs to make sure the photographer is informed before they
begin the cake-cutting ceremony. The band will usually provide
the bride and groom with a sheet to fill out indicating all
of the announcements, special dance selections and other details
regarding the order of events that will take place during
the reception. The band will then oversee the affair to ensure
a smooth transition from one event to another, allowing the
bride and groom to relax and enjoy their special day.
