Choosing Your Wedding Band Tips

By Angeline Cogger


Function bands, wedding bands and covers bands are basically the same thing, since they all play live music at events. However, while searching online for a wedding band you need to be specific about the style of music you want. This is because there are many types of bands available today and you must find out exactly what they offer.

Remember, this is your wedding and your choices, not the bands wedding. Feel free to ask them to learn to play songs that you want to hear that they may not already know. The majority of bands are more than happy to oblige you since learning new songs are for their benefit as well.

Choosing your wedding band may be easier than you may think it is. You can use search engines like Yahoo or Google. If you type in words such as wedding band or bands wedding you will most likely come up with a great many search results from which you can choose.

There are a few things you can check on to make sure that it is worth your time and money to hire any band. Check online to see if they have a website or an account with FaceBook or MySpace. They will generally have songs, music and videos on there to help you make up your mind.

Contact their previous clients by checking their past listing of performances. Look to see if they offer a future listing of performances. If they do and most will, you can stop at one of these to listen and watch the band to see if they are suitable for your needs.

Many worthwhile bands are willing to work with you. They can customize their set to suit your requirements, even if this means learning some new songs to play for your event. Many worthwhile bands find this refreshingly challenging since it helps them improve their act.

Remember having the right band is as important as having the right venue at a wedding. The venue should have a live music licence if not then you are in trouble so it is always best to check this before paying any band or venue any money.

A venue should be able to tell you how larger band they can hold on stage and what the parking is like for bands wanting to unload their heavy equipment.
