Karaoke at Weddings - Is this a new trend?

[leelive]

I did my first Wedding with Karaoke last night... I have two more to do at Weddings next month.

Is this a new trend?

How many of you have bookings to do Karaoke at Weddings?

Here is a pic from last night

I'm doing a wedding with karaoke this Saturday. It does seem to be more popular, I'm sure there will be people that shudder at the thought and say it's wrong. But at the end of the day if the bride and groom want this and are prepared to pay I'm not going to turn it down.

done it a few times, but not often. no current wedding bookings include karaoke for me

I have a CP booked for November where they have specifically requested Karaoke, but as a general rule I tend to discourage it at weddings.
Reason being that the B & G are the 'stars of the day' and it makes it all too easy for attention-seekers (and there are always one or more at weddings ) to hijack the occasion.

The proportion is definitely on the increase

exactly. I think it may suit certain venues or crowds but I am not doing it.

i had a girl pleading for the mic last week at a nice venue.
I said no way as they cost £150, but more to the point it will probably be crap.

Definite increase and gained quite a few nice booking from offering the service.

Hate it, think its inappropriate at a wedding but ............

I like how you have cleverly used a projector for the lyrics on that wall rather than a monitor Looks really good and the whole audience can see them.

Same here, I would say 1 in 3 wedding bookings are now asking for Karaoke as well.
Like quite a few on here I am not keen but if the customer wants, the customer gets....

One maybe two a year if I'm lucky. At the last one they accidentally broke a telly so it was a short night anyway.
