Here are the 10 Essential Questions to ask a live band before you book!
How far in advance should I book a wedding band?
It’s best to book your wedding band as soon as you’ve secured your wedding date and venue, ideally 6-12 months in advance. Popular bands, like Jackson Broadway, can get booked up quickly, especially during peak wedding seasons, so early planning ensures you get your top choice.
How much does it cost to hire a live wedding band?
The cost varies depending on factors such as the band’s size, experience, location, and the duration of their performance. On average, prices can range from $1,500 to $5,000 or more. Be sure to ask about what’s included in the price, such as sound equipment, travel, and lighting.
Can the band play our favorite songs or take requests?
Most wedding bands are happy to learn and perform special songs for key moments like the first dance, provided they are given enough notice (typically a few weeks). Some bands also take requests on the night, so don’t hesitate to discuss your preferences in advance.
How long does the band typically perform at a wedding?
A standard live band performance is around 2-3 hours, often divided into 2-3 sets with short breaks in between. However, many bands are flexible and can adjust their schedule to fit your event timeline.
What styles of music can the band play?
Wedding bands usually have a diverse repertoire, covering genres like pop, rock, and classic hits to appeal to all age groups and tastes. Make sure to ask for a setlist or sample performance to ensure their style matches your vision for the day.
Will the band provide their own equipment?
Yes, most professional wedding bands come fully equipped with sound systems, instruments, and sometimes even lighting. It’s always good to confirm this during your discussions to avoid last-minute surprises.
What happens during the band’s breaks?
During breaks, most bands provide pre-recorded music or a playlist to keep the energy flowing. You can discuss the type of music you’d like to be played during these intervals to maintain the atmosphere.
What space and power requirements does the band have?
Live bands typically require a designated performance area with adequate space for their setup, including instruments, sound equipment, and lighting. They’ll also need access to multiple power outlets. Ask for their specific requirements to coordinate with your venue.
What if the band has an emergency and can’t perform?
Professional wedding bands usually have a backup plan in case of emergencies, such as a network of substitute musicians or connections with other bands. Make sure to discuss this scenario and have it included in your contract.
By addressing these FAQs with your potential wedding band, you’ll ensure a smooth booking process and a spectacular musical experience for your big day!
