What kind of atmosphere do you want to create?
Apart from selecting the person you wish to marry, choosing the right band is probably the single most important decision you will make in creating an unforgettable wedding! Your friends and family will remember the fantastic atmosphere that a band can create long after they have forgotten about the food, the flowers or even the bride’s dress.
I have prepared this guide to help you through the process of finding a band for your wedding reception and to give you some advice and inside tips that you may not have considered that will help you choose the perfect band and make sure that your big day goes off without a hitch.
Choosing a band is easier if you have a clear idea of what you are looking for. Think about the atmosphere and energy you want the band to create. Do you want a jazzy feel or a lively dancing party? Do you want a particular era, or style style of music or a band that can cover everything from Aretha to Beyonce? How do you want the band to look? Think about your end goal – what kind of experience do you want for you and your guests? How do you want people to remember your wedding reception?
Think about your friends and family and picture what you would like them to be saying about your wedding on their journey home. The clearer a picture you have, the more focused and selective you can be when you start to look for a band
