You can book both a band and a DJ for your wedding in Edmonton: the band for part of the evening, the DJ for the rest and for the breaks. Plan who covers what, the sound and the hand-over. Send us your date, venue and guest count, and you can compare options with prices for bands and DJs who are available that day.<\/p>\n
Write down the parts of the day and their times: the ceremony, drinks, dinner, the speeches, the first dance and the dancing. Then decide which ones the band plays and which ones the DJ covers. One way to split it: the band for the first dance and the first part of the dancing, and the DJ for dinner, the breaks and the end of the night.<\/p>\n
A band plays in sets, usually with breaks. Ask the band how long they’d like to play, in one stretch or with a break, and tell the DJ when the breaks are, so the music doesn’t stop.<\/p>\n
Ask the band and the DJ whether they can share one sound system, or whether each brings their own. If each brings their own, check with the venue that there’s space and power for both, and when each can load in and sound check.<\/p>\n
Decide who makes the announcements: the DJ, someone from the band, or a friend or family member. Tell both the band and the DJ, so they don’t talk over each other.<\/p>\n
Ask the band and the DJ to agree, before the day, on how they’ll switch from one to the other, so the room doesn’t go quiet. Give them each other’s contact details.<\/p>\n
The price depends on how many hours each plays, whether it’s a Saturday or in the wedding season, the size of the band, a second sound system, and travel outside Edmonton.<\/p>\n
