​

Today, the wedding reception/party is one of the most anticipated periods of a wedding. This is apart from the vows declaration period. The two married lovebirds usually want to relax and enjoy the rest of the day after making their vows. There is no better way to let the newly married couple wind up the day than to the tunes of a superb live band.

 

There are many East Coast Style Wedding music bands you can hire for your big day. However, while the day is yours, remember that also other people will be celebrating it with you. Thus, it's important to consider their entertainment tastes and preferences.  You should look for a wedding band of the highest caliber and that can entertain guests of all ages. You want a band that will be comfortable playing smooth jazz that your friends can mooch to through funky 70s rock/party songs. If the band can keep the guests on their feet, you are guaranteed to have a memorable day.

 

Here are two important things to consider when choosing Chicago Wedding Band:

 

Consider the Style of Music

Look for a band that will play the right style of music at the reception. Here, you want to keep in mind the kind of atmosphere you would like to create. For example, would you like everyone to be on their feet partying or do you prefer a more laid back approach? If you want a fun and dancy reception, go for a band that can cover soul, R&B, Latin and salsa tunes. If you want a smooth and sophisticated vibe, a band that can play violin/sax, classic ensemble, or jazz would be ideal.

 

Preferences of your Family

Consider the music preferences of your family and friends that will be attending the wedding.  The age group of the guests will give you an idea of the type of music that will be enjoyable. If your audience will be made up of people of all age groups, you can go for a band that can cover soul, swing jive and Pop Rock.  If the audience is mostly mature (age 50+), a band that can cover Latin and salsa tunes, 60's & light pop, and selected tributes will be ideal.
