There are high stakes when it comes to choosing the entertainment at your wedding. From sentimental ballads to upbeat 2000's jams, couples want entertainment that will not only cause the audience to shed a tear at the slow song but get out on the dance floor to the Macarena. Many might be lost on where to begin when looking for a DJ or band for their wedding. You might be asking yourself:   

  • Should I pick a band or a DJ for my wedding?
  • How big should my wedding venue be for a band?
  • How big should my entertainment budget be?
  • What do I do if the entertainment backs out last minute?
