HOW LONG SHOULD I HAVE THE BAND PLAY FOR?
Usually, we quote for a 4 hour event – this is the “industry standard” length – but it can be lengthened with little cost. Naturally, the band cannot physically play continuously for this entire 4 hour period, and so you’ll need to schedule the band to play at the most effective times. We recommend 3 x 1 hour 10 min sets, to be spread throughout the night as you feel best. With speeches and other formalities, you’ll find that this is usually the perfect amount of time to have the band playing. Also note that we are always very flexible to your needs, and anything can be customized to your plan – this is all just a “recommendation”. Talk to us about your ideas and dreams! We’ll do our best to accommodate (within reason!!)…
WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE BREAKS BETWEEN BAND SETS?
When we perform we use an IPOD for the two 20 minute breaks we take in the 4 hours we play – that can be your IPOD (songs that are special to you and the Family) or we can play our own IPOD-No Cost-played through our system.
HOW DO I CHOOSE WHAT MUSIC WILL BE PLAYED BY THE BAND OVER THE COURSE OF THE NIGHT?
We have over 750 songs to choose from. Every wedding or event is different-we can personalize your event by you choosing your own songs. You pick 50 to 60 songs is what we recommend – that gives us a good indication of the kind of music that you love and hate. A great way to do this is to look at our songlist on the website and we’ll have the Musical Director create a set list for your event.
