If you are currently planning your wedding and are starting to think about the wedding music that you would like to play at your event, you might be thinking about hiring a band.
Although it can seem pretty exciting to have a live band at your event, you may want to reconsider your decision.
For many couples, it is a much better idea to hire a DJ. These are a few reasons why this might be the right idea for you and your big day.
Save Money
A wedding can be pretty expensive. As you are going through the planning stages, you might have found that everything costs more money than what you thought it would cost.
For example, a lot of people think about the cost of having a catered meal served, but many forget about having to buy or rent plates, silverware and linens for the tables.
Now that you are thinking about the wedding music, you might have found that your budget is getting slimmer and slimmer.
If this is the case, you should know that hiring a band to play at your wedding is not going to be cheap.
Good bands often charge thousands of dollars to perform for a few hours.
Fortunately, hiring a DJ can be a whole lot cheaper.
If you are looking for a great way to cut costs on your event without having to “do without,” choosing a DJ over a band can be a great way to do it.
You might notice if you have to skimp on the flowers or choose a cheaper meal for your guests, but you probably won’t notice the difference if you hire a DJ instead of a band.
Ensure That You’re Satisfied with the Music
Hiring a band that you think you will like only to find that the music is not good at all can be a nightmare.
Once you have hired a band for your event, you are pretty much stuck with the music that you have chosen.
This can be a pretty bad thing if the band does not turn out to be as good as you thought they would be.
It’s true that listening to the band before your event can be helpful in preventing this, but you never know when the band might change its style or have a bad night.
You don’t want this to happen on your wedding night.
One great thing about hiring a DJ for your event is that you can pretty much guarantee that you will be happy with the music.
Even if you aren’t happy with the tracks that he or she is spinning, you can always request music that you do like.
This can help prevent you from getting stuck with music that you are unhappy with.
Play Something for Everyone
The thing about bands is that they generally only have one style and are typically limited in their musical knowledge.
This means that you will probably only be able to enjoy one type of music throughout your whole event.
Even though you might be happy with the music that is being played, your grandma or the kids who are attending your wedding might not be.
With a DJ, you can easily switch things up and play all types of music, so you can ensure that everyone will be satisfied.
As you can see, it’s often a better idea to hire a DJ for your wedding than to hire a band.
