    Wedding bands are one of the essentials in Indian weddings

    Wow! This makes my day! You guys used my suggestion from a few weeks ago! Thank you so much! While I enjoy both, I have to go Team Wedding Bands. Gotta give love to all local musicians out there like myself, Significant Other, and countless friends! Love you guys & love your podcast! Thank you again! Blessings!

    You need both. The band brings the excitement of the moment and the DJ takes everyone through to the big night.

    Dulce doesn’t know anything about bands who do weddings. Or that local house bands regularly fill out 3 hour sets and can know hundreds of songs. Or that there are available local wedding bands who are former Grammy winners. Or that you can request the band learn specific songs beforehand.

    I looooooovvvvvveeeee live musicians. A lot of times, the cover band is fire. But a fierce deejay CAN set the party off. Everybody has to start somewhere. Local bands often open for huge acts, and wedding bands need to be able to do too forty, at least.

    I have never been to a wedding with a band. I also only know one DJ he does all the family events…my cousin. He plays everything because the family is huge and multigenerational….i do not know how the older generations tolerate the younger generations music but they do and they do not complain.
