Now, a DJ is a cheaper option for sure. A dude selecting music of a playlist is always a simple way to go. However, as a bride who had a DJ instead of live music, I can tell you I would have done things differently. Of course, some DJs are better than others. If you go the DJ route, ask him or her to see videos of their work to see how they interact with the reception audience.

Just saying though: don’t discount the value of live music on your special day. A good band can be perfect for your wedding, especially if you’re wanting to surprise your guests with something different. Make sure though, if you go the band route, that they are seasoned musicians with some degree of talent and experience and not just some dude with a guitar and a case to collect quarters in.

Let me pause a moment here to shamelessly promote one of the best wedding bands in central Illinois Fun DMC is a game change if you are shopping around for a band and live in the Illinois region. https://www.fundmc.net/
