Money Saving tips for your music event by The Morris Agency
If you are feeling the pinch and the credit crunch has bitten into your Entertainment or Music budget, don’t panic! here are some cost saving options from The Morris Agency that look and sound great and doesnt take you over that budget.
Less can be more
Many of our clients find that a combination of solo or duo musicians and a DJ and if budget will allow can go a lot further than just a main band in the evening.
Look at themed musicans such as a Mexican or other Latin bands:

These artists give a big sound for less than you think (and you can go from solo, duo, trio and up)
They can play from 45 mins and more which can also help with costings
Live Music Early:
If you book the bands earlier in the day then you can usually get a better deal as they can go and perform at another location in the evening still and this can really help to slash the fee.
Barter:
We dont always ask for money off and these things are not always set in stone, if you dont ask, you dont get! failing that, speak to us and we will do it for you!
