Hire from a reputable booking agent. A good agent will do all the work leaving you time to focus on the other important issues of the day. They have a wealth of experience and can offer good sound advice and many trusted options.
2) Guests.
Always keep all your guests in mind. Be sure to consider suitable artists relevant to all your guests music preferences as this is guaranteed to enhance the atmosphere on the day.
3) Venue .
Be sure to consider the venue and room size. Don’t choose a large 6 or 8 piece band if the room only caters for 70 people., “Size Matters”
4) Set the Tone.
Be sure that the tone of the music is in line with the different parts of the day. Ensure that the drinks reception music is not too loud and your guests are able to mingle and chat. Save the up tempo and loud music for the post dinner entertainment.
5) Suit your self.
Remember that it is your “big day” to so put yourself first. Choose music that you as a couple enjoy as this will be a sure way to leave you feeling much more relaxed.
