Wedding Music

Guests dancing at a party

Music is undoubtedly one of the key elements of any wedding celebration.
Whether you create a playlist for your intimate wedding at a restaurant or café, or you plan to hire a band or DJ for a larger celebration at a wedding venue, music cannot be missing 😉.

Wedding DJ or Band

This brings us to the highly debated question of whether to hire a DJ or a live band. It is definitely a tough decision and it will depend on your personal preferences and budget.
I have tried to help you decide by researching some pros and cons for each option.

Pros Cons
DJ
  • Gets people dancing
  • Cheaper
  • Large selection of music
  • Needs less space
  • Might not be able to read the room for song / music preferences
  • Might impose their taste by playing their own playlist
Band
  • Live music
  • Can create a unique vibe
  • Provide great entertainment for a memorable event
  • Can be pricey
  • Need more space than a DJ
  • Tend to be the focal point of the event
    • Might take attention away from the couple and
    • Captivate guests so much that it keeps them from dancing

I think we can agree that no matter if you choose a DJ or a band, you want them to be aligned with your expectations and good at what they do.

Wedding Singer

In addition to booking a band or a DJ to play music at your wedding, you could also hire a wedding singer.
I have attended weddings where they had a wedding singer perform during the church ceremony and it was very memorable and beautiful.
