How far in advance do I need to book?

Answer: Just as soon as you are ready. If your location is still undecided, but your date is firm, you should go ahead and book the date and we'll write TBA on our agreement. TIP: the trend in our area right now is for people to hire their musicians and/or DJ six months out for most months. If you are on a six month timeline, it is very likely that several other parties are also looking at your date. If you plan on shopping around a lot, my personal advice would be to start nine months out. One year lead time is recommended for May, June, and October dates.
