Wedding Music
Wedding music plays an important role in setting the overall wedding and reception mood. Couples often utilize several forms of music and a variety of musicians, bands, and Disc Jockeys to complete the event. A little pre-planning can help ensure success. Following are some simple tips to ensure your wedding music provider is sensational: 
Wedding Bands & DJ's
Bands and disc jockeys are often booked months in advance so act quickly to obtain your favorite group or disc jockey.
Communicate prior to the performance what you expect of the musicians and/or disc jockey.
Inquire about specific song availability in advance of booking a band and/or disc jockey.
Provide your band or disc jockey with a detailed schedule of wedding events so they know what music to play when.
Be sure to inform your band or disc jockey of any announcements you want them to make well in advance of the reception, and provide them with proper pronunciation of names. A poorly read announcement is often worse than none at all. Plan ahead to avoid embarrassment.
The time to ask the band or disc jockey about fulfilling special requests is during the negotiating period - not at the wedding reception.
Be very specific about what wedding music you would like to hear and what you don't want to hear. Be specific about your music budget and insist that your final agreement be in writing.
Often times tapes are not a very good indicator of the band's live sound. It is best to find out where the band will be playing or performing and take the time to go out and hear them for yourself.
Bands and disc jockeys generally prefer payment at the event. Payment is usually anticipated to be in cash - before the event begins. If you plan to pay the band or wedding performers with a check you should confirm that in advance to avoid confusion. It is customary to tip the wedding band, DJ, or wedding performers if you were satisfied with their services.
