Wedding Bands vs. Wedding DJs - Roselyn Court

1. Wedding Bands vs Wedding DJs - Roselyn Court Wedding Bands and Djs - The Pros and Cons: Choosing the reception music can be one of the biggest challenges of wedding planning. To help you decide between a wedding band and DJ, the team at Roselyn Court Reception Centre have come up with some pros and cons for each. Wedding Bands: Nothing beats the energy of a live band. Experienced musicians can work the crowd to really engage with your guests, and they often elicit a more emotional response than pre-recorded songs. Best of all, guests who aren’t dancing can still enjoy the spectacle. However, hiring a band can put a much larger dint in your wedding budget than a single DJ. There is also the issue of variety; a smaller catalogue of songs means a band won’t be able to offer you the choice of a DJ. Djs: At Roselyn Court Essendon, we’ve seen a fair number of DJs come through our doors. DJs are typically cheaper than bands and don’t require as much equipment, space or set-up time, meaning more space for the seating and dance floor. A DJ will have a large and diverse catalogue of music to choose from, enabling them to pick the right songs for each moment. Some DJs can also double as MCs to keep the proceedings moving smoothly. The problem with a DJ is that so much of the event’s success depends on a single person. Pick the wrong DJ and you could get someone who lacks personality, sets the wrong mood, and single-handedly kills the vibe of your event. When it comes to DJs, it’s vital to do your research!
