Wedding Bands or DJ's, what's the deal?

So we get asked why people should take a wedding band over a DJ quite a lot. Its a good question really, a DJ takes up very little space, can play anything within reason and its only one person to be catered for!

Lets think about a night out. So you go to a club and they have a DJ.  They play the latest chart toppers along with a few old classics.  They sometimes talk over the mic, flirt with the clientele and maybe tell a few jokes.  It's all pretty standard really! I think you can see where this is going?

A function band really gives a sense of occasion.  When you go to a club and there is a band playing, its different. It gives a sense of occasion and brings energy to the room. And its no different at a wedding.  Wedding bands in Scotland normally play a variety of music and a variety of styles.  Overall, it brings something special to the table.

As an Edinburgh wedding band, we have played all over Scotland and have attended many weddings indeed. A band always brings something special to the table. Not that we don't like DJs.... they are amazing too. But for something that little bit different, a little more grand and as special as your big day.... Try and get a good wedding band in place, it really makes a real difference.

And if you cant decide, give us a call... we do both!
