3 Things To Consider When Looking For Wedding Band Hire

Your wedding is supposed to be the happiest day of your life, so it’s understandable that you’d want everything to be perfect on your special day. There’s plenty of things to think about when it comes to wedding band hire. Here are three things we think you should consider:  

How far in advance do you need to book?

Historically, weddings can take a long time to plan, as no doubt you want every detail to be absolutely perfect. So it may take you a bit of time to decide on the type of band you want to hire for your wedding. So how much time do you have to make a decision? Consider the time of year that you’re getting married. If it’s during peak season, such as summer weekends, wedding bands may book up faster. The majority of bookings are arranged 8-12 months ahead of your wedding date. But some wedding bands will be available nearer the time, and some may even offer last minute discounts. If you have your heart set on a particular band, it’s best to book in advance to avoid any disappointment.   

What genre of music will suit your audience?

Your wedding guests are likely to be people from different ages and backgrounds, with different song preferences. It might be nice to have a variety and a mix of different songs so there’s always something for everyone. Once you’ve decided on the genre of your songs, will the wedding band you’re considering hiring be able to cater to these needs? Your band should be able to adapt to your song choices and learn to perform any song you request. If they’ll need to make adjustments for your song choices, ask them if they will charge extra for this.  

What are your venue restrictions?

Consider the space in your venue. If you have a tiny dance floor and stage, there’s no point booking a huge band. Consider restrictions your venue may have in place too. Many venues have restrictions such as sound limiters, which would affect the type of band you can hire. So make sure you’re aware of your restrictions before booking your band.
