What makes the best wedding band?
We know from speaking to clients that it can be a bit daunting knowing what to look for so we hope you find the following information helpful in making your decision.
Here are some of our kent wedding band testimonials and also our take on the characteristics of a great wedding band - this is what you will get if you hire Milo Max!
A Fun but Professional band
We are professionals, music is what we do full time. This means that we provide a high quality of service. This comes from several things:
High standard of musicianship
An extensive and proven repertoire
Great production (sound & lights)
Performing skill – ability to engage an audience!
Great client care
High standard of musicianship
Milo Max musicians are all experienced professionals. That means we all play to a high standard and have a track record to prove it (see the About Us page).
It means we can play the same thing in different ways, it means we can play at different volumes; it means we are excellent at delivering high quality live performances for varying client event requirements, it means we are expert at making sure you have a great evening, even if we change what we planned to do on the night inorder to tailor better to the evening!
With Milo Max you will be entertained by musicians and singers that have performed with and to people like Elton John, Elvis Costello, Paul Weller, Geri Halliwell, George Michael, Kylie Minogue & Take That.
Repertoire
We know a lot of songs!
It comes from being musicians full time. We are versatile and adaptable, we can change the vibe of the evening on request; we make sure this is absolutely your evening!
Song choice is tried & tested
We use a well proven play-list of crowd pleasing songs. A wedding covers band may know the right songs to play, but success of a playlist is also very much about the order you play them in and at what stage in an evening you play a certain type of song (a bit like a recipe).
We will consult with you when preparing the playlist for your wedding! (See our Songs menu to get an idea).
Tip!
We know that often clients want the lowest price; but a good band means a package of things have to be there and it’s worth balancing theses factors with price and your budget.
It’s not just about the band’s ability to play music.
It’s whether the band organisers look after you on the lead up to the event and the logistics through the day, it’s whether their production is of sound quality (excuse the pun!), it’s about the depth of experience that enables a band to be flexible and tailor an evening of entertainment, and importantly successfully engage the audience!
"There have been very many positive things said to us by our guests, "best ever", "fantastic songs", etc etc.
We just wanted to thank you and your band very much for your performance last Friday evening...
...Your performance certainly helped make our wedding the fantastic do that it was (that's not just our view) and everyone had a great time.
We will definitely recommend you to anyone in the future."

Production
Pro sound system
A top wedding band is only as good as their sound system. Milo Max uses a high end Yamaha, Mackie & FBT sound equipment and can accomodate up to around 350 people. For larger audiences we hire in PA appropriate for the size of the event. A common mistake people make is that they think that any PA will do the job.
Often either a poor quality system compromises the band and the event or the system is just not powerful enough to cope with the size of the event.
When you pay a bit more for a band typically you get higher end production and a superior show!
“Let there be light !!”
We are equiped with a professional dynamic lighting rig. This means that we can change the mood of the stage and dance floor area, from more static ambient lights to sound chasers that pulse with the bands pumping beat adding to the excitement on the dance floor!
Audience engagement
How well a band engages your audience often separates the professional from the amateurs.
A performance is about playing the tunes and providing a specific ambience.
For the main wedding entertainment your band should be putting on a show. It should be about engaging the audience: high energy performing and talking to and getting the audience involved. Quite simply you can not be the best wedding band if you don't score well in this area.
Great Client care
We understand that our clients want to have a great show but also want the whole process to be as stress free as possible.
Working with Milo Max means that we provide advice and ask you appropriate questions to ensure that your wedding entertainment is smooth and slick in regards to our contribution and how we fit in.
Tip!
One factor in band pricing is the experience of the band members. Typically, the higher the price is then the better the experience of the band members.
So you may pay more for a 4 piece band compared to a 7 piece based on the more experienced CVs of the smaller band.
A great solo performer can mesmerise a room and a bad 8 piece band can empty a room! Contact Us and we can give you specialist advice on which Milo Max option is best for you.
