Book the Entertainment!




You want your guests to be have fun right? You do not want them to bored !
So hire entertainers to help light up the room. I will be giving you the 10 best tips on planning and booking your wedding entertainment!

1. Set out a budget- This is bit of an obvious factor, but its is an important one nonetheless. Set out a part of your wedding budget aside for the type of entertainment that you would want to be having.
2. Book Early- All bands and performers usually have alot on their plate. It is very rare that they are free for sudden bookings. There is an increased demand but a very reduced supply so they prices increase if not booked earlier. Choose the type of music you would want to listen to and make a booking!
3. Scrutinize timings- They usually get paid by the hour so even if they are setting up all the equipment they need to  be getting paid for the time. so manage your timings accordingly and let them know when they need to arrive.
4. Keep your options open-  There are many tonnes of entertainment  options so keep an open mind. It will help you to consider alternative ideas so that you will have a wider range of options.
5. Do your research- Watch videos, google bands and see the profile reviews before picking the band you want. Check their reputation.
6. Book off peak-  This is because you can get cheaper rates. book when its always less busy.
7. Explore versatility- Some musicians may have more talents and will be willing to perform different things. For example they may also be a DJ or might be  able to perform solos with an instrument
8. Themes- Choose a theme everyone will like. Ask a few family members if they would like it. Get opinions.
9. Be flexible- Sometimes you may not get what your looking for so be flexible, give them more options and see what you can do.
10. Venue- Make sure you let them know the venue because they will bring the equipment according to the place and the number of people.
