What is your opinion on a tribute act at a wedding. Looks and sounds like the real deal.

He plays 2 x 45 minute sets with a break. We would get a dj for afterwards.

Alternative is a band for the full night playing a variety of music.

It depends who the tribute is!

It depends on who they are tributing and how good they are. I work at a venue that does weddings and concerts and has a variety of tributes and ordinary bands. Some (of each) are very good, some very poor and some middle of the road.

I tend to think that a poor tribute can come off like a characteur and cheesey, but a poor band can often get away with it.

One bloke for an hour and a half? I wouldn't even want the real Gary Barlow for that.
