Reason why hiring a wedding DJ

Cost - Here’s the biggie…a wedding band will easily cost much more than a wedding DJ will! Remember you’re paying for the services of a group a people. Playing the gig will have to be worthwhile to the entire band which means a lot of money!

You can save hundreds if not thousands by hiring a wedding DJ over a wedding band. “But my cousin’s friend’s brother’s band will do it for free” you say. Are they professionals? Or will you find them partaking in the open bar a little too much? Will they excel in the three reasons above? Free is great but you get what you pay for too.

Music Selection - How many genres of music can a band cover well? Many bands have one particular specialty. But can they really play whatever is required of them? Will they play jazz as well as rock as well as disco as well as pop? A wedding DJ can!

How much actual music time are you getting? - With a band you have to remember that they will need to take breaks. Quite possibly they may need breaks every 30 minutes.

So what happens during a band break? Silence? Will they play anything during the meal? How about while the guests enter the reception area? Will the band play the actual wedding? Will they play the cocktail reception? If they are they’ll have to setup and break down their instruments a number of times (and it will cost a lot more).

A wedding DJ has the ability to cover your ceremony, cocktail, and reception relatively easily. And during times when you don’t want active dance music a wedding DJ can play some nice ambiance music such as during dinner or as the guests enter the reception area. When a DJ needs a break he can set it up so music will be playing while he’s gone.

Music Quality - “I love how a live band sounds” is one thing I hear when people are looking into who to hire. You know what? I love how a live band sounds too. But they have to be a great band that really knows their material. And the hall has to sound good housing a band. But you know what I hate?

Hearing a mediocre band or listening to a band that has terrible sound quality. Or watching a band that doesn’t look interested. Or hearing mistakes from the band. Or watching them try to perform songs they have no business playing! Your solution?

Hire a wedding DJ! With a DJ you make sure you are getting the original song as it was intended to be heard. A good DJ will also have a sound system that will better distribute the music across the hall than a band will. With a DJ you don’t have to worry about one band member having a bad day and making mistakes all over the place.
