By Harold Hall


If you are planning the celebrations for your wedding day you may choose to put on some live entertainment for the invited guests. Putting on a live show is a much better option than simply having a party DJ to play records. If you are looking to wow your guests you can look for live wedding bands Connecticut and some research is advisable before you make a booking.

Some careful thought is needed when you are choosing which type of music will suit the guests at your event. Due to the fact that you will probably invite people of all ages you need a style of music that caters for everyone. All types of music can be performed by live musicians from rock and pop to traditional jazz and blues.

There are many things to consider when looking for a group of musicians to perform at your wedding in West Park, NY. The variety of acts is huge and the bands will range from amateurs to professionals and established stars. It is very important to work out your budget before planning the event to ensure that you can afford the fees you are going to be charged.

There are various places where you can find musicians that are available to perform live music at an event. Many groups will advertise in the local press or in magazines and others will list their services on the internet. You can also use a reputable show business agent that will provide a list of acts and help with your selections.

When using an entertainment agency to locate a band, you will need to meet with the agent to make some arrangements, and discuss your plans. You will be shown some acts and will have the opportunity to listen to their music and watch some video footage. If you decide on a band and make a booking, you will be asked for a deposit to secure the musicians, and the balance will be payable after the performance.

When booking a band online, there are some things for you to look at, before making a final decision. Most bands will post audio and video on their web site and you can spend some time checking these out. Most sites will also have a testimonials page with comments and reviews from previous clients and these are worth reading before you make your final decision.

If you get in touch with a group directly to make a booking you should meet with them or their management to arrange the gig. You can work out how long the show will last and you can discuss the fees. The majority of groups will have a sound system and lighting rig but you should check in case this needs to be hired from another company before the show.

If you are hiring premises for the band to perform in you should check some important things with the venue owner or managers. Most venues will have the permits for live music as well as the appropriate insurance cover. You should also know how many people are attending the wedding so that you can ensure the room is big enough to accommodate the invited guests.
