Which Type of Music Is Best
for Your Wedding?
If you’re determined to have a live band at your wedding
ceremony and reception, just remember that the more
musicians you hire, the more money you’ll have to come
up with. If you want an eight-piece band for the occasion,
you’ll need to have the budget to pay each person in the
band. If you still want live music but want to make sure
your ceremony is affordable, it may be best to hire a string
quartet to provide an elegant touch to your nuptials. The
quartet can also play at the reception if this part of the
day will be especially refined. Or, you can choose to have
live music at your wedding and a DJ at the reception. This
is a great way to change the vibe of the two parts of the
wedding celebration, and the mixture of slow and fast
songs could encourage everyone at your wedding to get
up and dance depending on their musical preferences.
