WEDDING ENTERTAINMENTOnce you have got the date and booked the venue, then its time to think about what sort of entertainment you would like. Wedding entertainment includes: Live Band Discotheque Harpist Tribute Band Classical trio or quartet Jazz vocalist Pianist Steel Band Guitar soloist Opera singer Ceilidh band Cabaret act Magician and so it goes on - quite a selection! Once you have made your decision on what sort of entertainment you would like, and that's quite a decision, how do you go about finding the right one? Bridal magazines have advertisements in their classifed section and wedding directories on the Internet are a good resource. Big wedding shows will feature tribute acts to set the scene for visitors. Good entertainers will have a showcase of their work and be able to either send you a sample DVD or CD, or have the functionality for you to listen to them live or watch videos on their website. If it's possible, try to go and see live performers before you book them so you can access if they are suitable for your wedding. If you are having a DJ check with your family and friends for any recommendations. Put together a playlist beforehand to be sure you get what you want to hear and dance to. Although, do keep in mind the tastes of your guests too! There are many entertainment agencies out there who can provide you with everything you need, particularly if you would like a magician, or tribute band for example. Harpists and classical performers are usually trained to a high standard, so you may not need to see them perform live beforehand. It is a good idea to get a list of their repetoire and choose any of your favourites. These performers are fantastic for the bride's entrance in a civil wedding, as background during your wedding reception drinks, and during the wedding breakfast. Beautiful music, but not too intrusive. Check with the venue what time your entertainers will be allowed to set up - and check with your entertainers how much time they need to set up. Ensure they have a contingency plan should they not be able to attend on the day due to an unforeseen emergency. Last of all - exchange mobile phone numbers for any emergencies on the day. (To be kept by your best man and chief bridesmaid of course!) |
