A:
If you don’t already have an idea of what kind of entertainment you would like for your event (e.g., disc jockey for your wedding reception), this is a VERY GOOD QUESTION to begin with.

Here are some things to consider to help you answer your question:

• What kind of event are you having? Entertainment needs will vary for anniversary parties, Super Bowl parties, birthday parties, wedding receptions, business functions, kids parties, etc.

• Where will your event be held? If the event is not in a private residence, there may be factors that will affect your entertainment selection, such as space, size, and local ordinances.

• How many people are you expecting at your event? Entertainment needs for a small, intimate gathering will differ from those at a large party where dancing is planned.

• Do you want the entertainment to provide a focus for the party or background ambience?
