Star wedding performers

A wedding is always the most long-awaited day in the life of any bride, and that is why he must certainly become extraordinary and memorable. On this day, dreams should be fulfilled, even if this dream is about a star from the sky or just a star of the world scene ...

Today it is very fashionable to invite celebrities to private events. At the same time, the “star” has long been understood as not just a popular singer of hits, but also well-known presenters, top DJs, participants of television show or people from the world of cinema.

And here I want to make a reservation right away that even if the wedding budget allows you to not deny yourself anything by making a real “star fall”, it is still better to decide on the basic desire and let the newlyweds shine at the wedding.

But about the difficulties that await you in organizing the performances of the artist, and what to envisage without fail, we will tell in our article.

Household and Technical Rider

Firstly, each popular artist has an individual household and technical rider, in which there are strict requirements for implementation, and sometimes very non-standard ones. Technical rider includes sound, light, stage software parameters, which are mandatory. Separately, the requirements of the domestic nature, including the state of the dressing room, delivery to the banquet place and others. If the organizers of the celebration fail to fulfill the conditions of the star, then the performer has the full right to refuse to perform and not to pay damages to the customer.

Therefore, it is recommended to study the technical rider of the artist very carefully and in advance. Help in the selection of the necessary equipment will be able to employees of the company that provides sound rental. It is important not to try to save money by choosing a sound equipment rental company with low prices. We recommend dealing exclusively with proven companies whose reputation is impeccable.

It should be borne in mind that the connection of equipment is carried out, as a rule, 3-6 hours before the event. It is mandatory to conduct initial testing of the equipment, and then a sound check, in which musicians take part.

If the scenario of the star’s performance involves visual effects, then lasers and smoke machines, soap bubble generators, snow, foam, fire simulators, and other equipment may be needed.

Artist's Fee

In addition to the fact that the size of the star's reward is very high, it is also non-permanent. The Executive Manager will call the exact amount of remuneration only after a lengthy conversation with the customer.

There are numerous factors that can significantly change the size of the fee:

1 season. During the holidays, the cost of performance of the artist can double.

2. The location of the venue for the performance. If the artist will have to make a long trip to perform at the wedding, it is likely that the amount of the fee will increase.

3. The number of staff. In addition to the star itself, the musicians, backing vocal group, dance group can take part in the concert. The performer is often lucky with a costumer, makeup artist, personal protection. Of course, all these people will have to pay for tickets, food and accommodation.

4. Factors associated with the activities of the star itself. The price of the performance may vary depending on the release of the artist’s clips on TV, the current rotation of songs on the radio, the frequency of the tour.

Discussion of Repertoire

With the artist you should definitely discuss in advance the repertoire, which will sound at the wedding banquet, that not only to avoid surprises, but also to observe a single concept of celebration.

Preparation of The Site for Performance

In most cases, the preparation of the venue for the performance falls on the shoulders of the host country. If your wedding is organized by an event agency, then all responsibility will fall on the management team and you need not worry about anything. If the bride and groom order the show on their own, then they will have to engage in the rental of sound equipment on their own.

Separately, pay attention to the requirements for the dressing room. In the immediate vicinity of the scene should be a dressing room - a room equipped with mirrors, lamps, chairs, tables, sockets for connecting a kettle, hairdryer, curling iron and other appliances. In most cases, performers want to get a room that would be locked with a key.

However, if it is impossible to equip a room next to the stage under the dressing room, then some artists are ready to seek a compromise.

In addition to the minimum requirements for the dressing room, the rider can be spelled out specific requirements: a separate dressing room for the leader of the musical group, the presence of a shower, food and beverages of a certain manufacturer.

Safety Stars

Almost all star rider includes a clause on the need to ensure the safety of the performer during a concert and stay in a foreign city. To fulfill this requirement, the organizers can contact one of the departmental organizations or hire a chop.

The guards will not only have to prevent any conflict situations, but also carry out a set of security measures.

Additional Star Requirements

The price of pleasure to see at their own wedding stars often increases due to the special requirements of artists. So, the performers may need the services of porters, make-up artist, etc.

If your desire to see your favorite artist at your event after reading is still strong, then we will continue. The popular artists and musicians have an extremely tight schedule of performances - it is advisable to inform the agency in advance of the date of the celebration, venue, number of guests, etc.

If you decide to invite a foreign star, then it is cheaper to invite an artist when he is on tour in our country. However, it will be quite difficult to agree on the date of the wedding and the expected arrival of the star. It should also be noted that recently Russia has tightened the rules for organizing concerts of foreign performers, which have been equated with guest workers. To enter the artist from abroad will need a work visa, the design of which is troublesome and time consuming.

Nevertheless, all these “tests” are worthy to pass, because a well-organized performance of the artist at the wedding can become one of the decorations of the holiday, make it unforgettable and bright.
