Questions to Ask Before Booking a Wedding Band

Use this checklist when you interview bands.

  1. Can we see video of a full performance at a wedding?
  2. How many musicians will play, and who exactly will be on stage?
  3. What happens if a member is unavailable?
  4. How long are the sets and breaks?
  5. What sound equipment and lighting do you bring?
  6. Can you learn a special song for our first dance?
  7. What is the overtime rate?
  8. Do you carry liability insurance if the venue requires it?
  9. What are the deposit and cancellation terms?
  10. How do you handle our do-not-play list?

A good band welcomes these questions. An agency can also answer them for several bands at once.
