How to Choose a Wedding Band

There are many Wedding Music Bands that cater to the needs of both a wedding band and a wedding composer. If you are considering hiring a wedding band for your special day, here are some tips on what to look for in a good wedding band.

The first thing you need to do is figure out what type of wedding band you want. You can hire either a classical style or rock/country/blues music. This will also determine the amount of musical instruments that will be used.

Whether you choose a classical band or a jazz/fusion/rock/pop/hip-hop piano player you should get at least three things from the wedding band. The first is the ability to play a wide variety of music styles. You want at least three different types of music so you will not have to take time to get your guests back to the same song every time.

Second, ask about their technical knowledge. Be sure they are up to date on modern music. Many music websites will provide you with a list of new or popular music today. They may be able to provide you with a link to download it for your convenience.



Third, ask if they will be using electronic instruments in their music. These instruments, like keyboards and pianos, will require additional equipment and may cost extra. Make sure they understand the difference between hardware and software.

Many wedding bands are available online or in local music stores. Make sure you check their availability and prices before you contact them. Some may offer discounts or free upgrades to their equipment.

Look for wedding bands that use professionally recorded wedding music. This is a nice option if you do not want to spend too much money. They will have mastered the music and will be sure to please everyone.

Take the time to listen to their music. You want to find something that you like, but not one that will make you cringe or struggle with hearing impairment. Look for a range of different types of music for your reception including opera, jazz, classical, and many others.

Check how long the wedding bands have been together. You want to make sure they are seasoned professionals. If you want to have a traditional wedding but can not afford a band, hire a professional.
Check the attitude of the wedding bands. You will want to be sure they know they are there to entertain and make your day special for you. You will want a professional attitude for all of the different guests to enjoy.

Take a look at their work ethics. Ask if they are using microphones that allow everyone to hear the music. If they are using amplification units, ask if they have the proper equipment to handle them.
Finally, ask if the wedding bands offer any special music packages. Wedding composers often have specific arrangements that they want included. Ask if they offer a wedding band insurance policy.
