Check out Hi Def! They are a LIW recommended band & they are playing at the LIW extravaganza in September! They are awesome & had our guests up dancing all night! They can play any style and have tons of energy AND they were a complete pleasure to work with!

Re: Anyone using a band?

LOL...I wish! A friend of mine is using Times Square Orchestra and they are reasonable. I want to say they were around $5500. Finding a band was so hard for FH and I. FH was very picky about the band so we ended up paying $8500 for our band. I would also check out Live Wire they were recommend to me by Cheeky and they were great. They were our second choice and I believe they were around 6.

Have both! That is what we are most likely doing. The band would play 1 or 2 sets & the DJ would take over the rest of the night as well as the music for dinner.

That's a fun idea! What companies do both?

There's no such thing as an affordable band when you compare their prices to that of a DJ lol. Two of my friends had bands and paid well over $6000 - but they were amazing!!! I haven't heard of anything lower. Best of luck!!

I know nothing of their cost but I saw Hi-Def play at alive after five last week and I regret having booked a dj and not them! They had an awesome sound and played all different kinds of music. If you can afford them, book them!
