Morning all,
Although I dont expect people to start divulging too much information (although it would be interesting to see if they did) but i'm looking at what you would all be looking at charging for this specific event as a ball park figure lets say -
Basically, I played at a young couples engagment party recently. Gig went really well, they enjoyed it, I enjoyed it, everyone's a winner.
I got a phone call this weekend asking if I'd be willing to play at their wedding next year. Great, I thought, step into my virtual office!
Bearing in mind I'm based in Birmingham - the wedding is taking place just short of 75 miles from where I live.
Not only that, but it is also on New Years Eve.
So, in short, its 150 miles travelling, on New Years Eve, for a wedding, in which staying over in a hotel seems the most appropriate thing to do in this case (providing I get international clearance from the Mrs)
Have many of you had many queries similar to this and if so, how much (ball park) would you be looking to charge for this kind of event?
