Weddingbee boards

I work in human resources and have used Gigmasters to help find a band and entertainment for our Christmas Party and quite honestly I've been disappointed.  If you want to find a good person in your area to do the job, I would consider looking on Yelp for answers.  Down here in San Diego, we have a 10 News A-List where all people vote on who they like best as wedding DJ's, etc.  Maybe you could have someone travel up there if you have the money.  With the economy being the way it is, many people are desperate and willing to travel or negotiate.  Good luck.  Here's an attachment of the 10 News A-List:

I used gigmasters and I actually found it to be a wonderful resource! I know a few other bees who also used it, and it's been good for them as well.
