I wanted to write a quick “Wedding Entertainment 101” article. Unfortunately, even a “simple” list of entertainment options quickly became waaay too unwieldy for a little introduction article. After several attempts I realized that this sort of “intro has been done by others. Why reinvent the wheel? What I want to do is write about some specific details. So, by way of Wedding Entertainment 101, I’d like to refer you to a good comprehensive article written by Lori Voth at Associated Content. Wedding Event Planning: Entertainment Options. It’s got a good description of the basics of Live Music vs. DJ vs. DIY. The Knot also has a good article, Reception Music: Getting Started.
