How to Save on Wedding Music

Great entertainment can really make your wedding unforgettable. A fabulous DJ or a live band keeps your dance floor packed and the energy up. Those ultra-special moments like your first dances and your cake-cutting become even more special with a stellar introduction. And surprise live performances are sure to wow your crowd.

Entertainment can be one of the most expensive parts of the wedding budget, however, and it’s not always the easiest place to cut corners. But fear not, there’s definitely wiggle room when it comes to number crunching — and we’re here to give you the scoop.

The Number-One Question: DJ vs. Band

You’ve always heard that DJs are less expensive than live bands. After all, there’s only one person to hire and feed, so that has to be less, right? But yes, in most cases, DJs can be less expensive than bands since there are fewer people to book and feed.

And yet: “Think about the experience you want to have at your wedding You may be aiming for the energy that fills the room when a live band plays hit songs. Or it may be that you really prefer the original artists’ renditions of songs, as played by a DJ. You may want the festive look of a fuji band  versus the tech-heavy presence of a deejay…. lol

And of course, you might be among the many couples that choose both. They’ll have a band play for the for some hours and the start of the reception, then have a DJ step in and rev up the energy with club music. And—surprise—this can save money. Having both at your event won’t be a bad idea but when cutting cost you can opt for a DJ  with your selected kind of music…..
