It seems to us there is a small number of couples who know exactly what they want, where as most are torn when it comes to hiring a DJ or a live band. Knowing that this is a decision that couples struggle with our friends at A Music Plus wrote down some pros and cons to consider when deciding.
DJ Pros
- Provide thousands of songs for your wedding
- Can play any requested song (as long as it’s not on your “do not play” list)
- Typically do not take breaks so there is no dead air
- Affordable
DJ Cons
- Cannot alter songs
- Looked at as the cheaper option than a live band
Live Music Pros
- Offers elegance and romance
- Live music brings enthusiasm
- Can adapt the music to the situation
Live Music Cons
- Almost always more expensive
- Need to take breaks
- Have a set style of music
Still torn? Consider both…
A live band can start the night off and a DJ can fill in when the band takes breaks. This allows for music that the band may not be able to play, help with announcements and you have a better chance of pleasing all of your guests regardless of their tastes in music.
