And for a little extra love, The Prenups bass player, Ed, offers advice about hiring a wedding band:
• Pick a band that likes the music you like: “Picking a band that has similar tastes and leanings is the biggest ingredient in throwing a successful party.”
• Ask the right questions such as: “How many requests you willing to learn?” “Are you capable of providing music during cocktail hour?” “Do you play during dinner as well?” “How many sets do you do in a typical night?” “How long are your breaks?” and “Can you play iPod music during breaks?”
• Always offer the band dinner.
• Don’t forget to tip!
