Band and/Or DJ

 Band contracts are usually quite specific as to what exactly they provide so make sure yours details exactly what you want. Do you need them to play as you walk down the aisle, do they have their own microphones, is there special lighting or other effects, does it include party people or other extras?

 Provisions can vary widely from required meals from the venue to dollar stipends if they are not provided. Remember to check with your venue whether vendors are included in guest counts and if there is a reduced charge for vendor meals.  

From providing access to outlets to the amount of performance space to provisions for inclement weather for outside weddings, bands and DSJs often have a whole host of requirements in their contracts, make sure you and your venue can accommodate them!

Make sure these terms are clearly set forth and that you understand them!
