CONTINUOUS MUSIC OR NO CONTINUOUS MUSIC NJ WEDDING

CONTINUOUS MUSIC OR NO CONTINUOUS MUSIC NJ WEDDING

Continuous Music or No Continuous Music
Many companies will use continuous live music as a selling point. This is already built into the pricing.  We are a bit uncertain of the actual value of that extra 20-25 minutes when, with some proper planning- its not necessary.  It is your choice of course. However we believe a break is good for the musicians as well as dynamically for your guests.
Generally, your affair is 5 hours in length beginning with cocktails followed by a 4 hour reception. Most often the keyboardist is playing the cocktail hour.  In about 30% of our wedding events, the keyboardist/guitarist is playing the ceremony as well.  Thats about 6 hours.
What we feel – at meal time is give our fingers and your guests’ ears a short break and put on some pre recorded music you may love but the band may not get to.  Its also a very short dynamic change after several hours to  chat with some light recorded back ground music.  This gives everyone a chance to recharge and refresh.

During this break is a perfect time for those speeches- then a few minutes of back ground music.  Before you know it- the band is back.  Make sense?  Why would you pay extra … lets just time it right
The biggest effect is the dynamic change in the room – when the band comes back on – its massive and impressive!  Your guests are ready to go!  So, for a short 15 – 20 minute break we take to eat as your dinner comes to an end  for all -it is worth not only saving you $200-$300 others may charge — its very worth it to have your band fully energized – the speeches done – and we are ready to rock your party!!  
Best Regards,
Ken Negri
Band Leader

Amazing Testimony For The Funktion Band!

The Funktion Hi Ken, It has been a blissful whirlwind of a few weeks, but we are finally back to reality and catching up on life, emails, etc. We want to thank you and everyone else in The Funktion for truly making our wedding PHENOMENAL. You surpassed all of our expectations!! Starting with your rendition of U2's "All I Want is You" for our first dance, which Ross and I continue to talk about because it was (I can't believe I'm saying this...) BETTER tha n the original, you continued to nail every song throughout the night. Other highlights were Sledgehammer, I Wanna Dance with Somebody , and of course, Shut Up and Dance. Honestly, every song was fabulous, and the entire band had an energetic, fun-filled, entertaining presence. There was never a dull moment, and the dance floor was packed all night. We are still hearing comments from guests about how awesome you were, and many have asked for your contact info for their future events. Ken, we can't thank you...
