How many singers can I choose from in Melbourne?

How far in advance should I book a singer in Melbourne?
Popular dates go first, so for a Saturday in peak season the earlier the better. If your date is close, it is still worth enquiring: availability changes, and sending one enquiry to several acts is the fastest way to find who is free.
What do I get back after enquiring?
A written quote from each act you shortlisted, so you can compare what is included side by side rather than piecing it together from separate phone calls. Enquiring is free and there is no obligation to book.
