Music For Your Wedding
Posted on Feb 09, 2009 under Musing, Tradition, Wedding Party |I haven’t touched on this subject.. because.. i was so engrossed in other aspect of my wedding. But we all know that having the right music.. for the entire wedding is very important. But what kinda music..?? the generic wedding music..? No way..!! every bride would tell you .. they want to be unique.. but how unique can one get in their wedding.. lets see eh.
A disc jockey..?? the traditional turntable kinda music..?? or a live band..?? Hard choices eh..?? what does your man like..?? mine.. he said.. “anything”. Yup..! right..!!! that means i have to do all the work.. and that’s not right. So if your man say that to you .. don’t hesitate to bring out the whip now.
As for me.. i love the live music .. but of course.. one has to choose wisely .. and the budget.. budget and more on the budget..! can one afford it..?? having a live band.. is expensive.. but if you are throwing a chinese wedding.. i guess.. you know that you will get that back in “ang pows” .. and that’s not a big deal at all. But having said that.. you rarely see .. live bands.. in Chinese weddings.. unless of course the bride or the groom.. graduated from Harvard.
So disc jockey is great to have .. if you need to create an atmosphere .. of laughter.. and joy.. if the spouse, his family or extended family .. are not so fun ppl. And they definitely cost a lot less than live bands. But ultimately, if you are on a tight budget .. then the turntable.. and a very enthusiastic teen .. who loves music .. is the way to go. Whatever one chooses, you both have to be comfy with it and within your budget.
