A live band can do a great job of energizing your guests and encouraging them to get involved with dancing and playing games. For the most part, the sound quality will be better and clearer for your guests. Musicians can get a good feel for the general mood of the party, and can alter their music accordingly-especially when things start to wind down at the end of the party. Similarly, they can pick up the beat and perform a crowd-pleaser whenever things need a little lift!Many themed weddings do well with themed bands.

A good DJ will give you many options, and even allow you to create the whole play list. Be weary of DJs who have a wedding "routine", for they can often be tacky and tasteless. DJs will often speak in between songs or as the couple enters, so also make sure that they have our name down and stick to appropriate subject matter. Keep in mind that either one you choose will be costly, especially if they are reputable and respected. Try and go see a DJ or band perform before you narrow down your choices. Most good bands and DJs will offer to send you a sample of their work, or perform live in front of you and your planner when you are in the process of narrowing your choices down.
