How to choose the best music for your private party

Music for private parties
There are few things that can bring guests together and create the right atmosphere like private party music. Whether you're planning a birthday party, a cosy anniversary or a lively garden party, good, authentic music will enhance the experience and make your event unforgettable. At Limunt, we help hosts find the perfect music for their event every year - and we love it!
We know that organising entertainment for a private party can be a big task. But don't worry - we make it easy and manageable. When you book music through Limunt, we match you with the musicians that fit your theme, your taste and the age group of your guests.
Live music makes the private party unforgettable
A scenario could be that your guests arrive, the mood is good, the sun is shining - and in the background a talented singer is singing or an elegant jazz band is playing. Later in the evening, the DJ turns up the tempo and the dance floor fills up. This is where the magic happens. Live music at a private party doesn't just create atmosphere - it creates memories.
Music connects the moments and makes people relax, laugh and dance. That's what we're passionate about at Limunt: delivering that kind of experience, tailored to the specific event. That's why we only work with professional musicians who can both read the room and adapt to your wishes.
Music customised for your party and your guests
There is no one right type of music for private parties - it depends on your style and your guests. Do you want elegant background music during dinner? Or do you want people dancing to hits from the 80s onwards? At Limunt, we offer bands in the form of, for example party band, singer or DJ - and we'll help you choose the right one.
Many of our customers say that the music was the highlight of the evening. Whether it's for birthday, wedding or confirmationswe'll find the right solution together with you.
From intimate cosiness to wild dance music
There's a big difference between planning a dinner for 20 people and a garden party for 100. Limunt has experience with both. We provide everything from a solo musician with guitar and vocals to larger party bands with horns and lights.
If you're planning music for a garden party, consider an acoustic duo or a jazz band that can play without drowning out the conversations at the tables. Later in the evening, a DJ can take over and turn the garden into a dance floor. We adapt to the conditions - whether the party takes place in the living room, tent or outdoors. (Tip: Remember to consider the neighbours - read How to get here).
Music for dinner and dancing
Music can set the mood in many ways. During dinner, we recommend soft background music, such as piano or acoustic vocals. It creates a cosy atmosphere and makes conversation easier. Once the food is eaten and the mood is high, we switch gears - and provide music that gets guests out of their chairs. This creates an organic flow for the event.
Choosing a band, DJ or solo musician
What type of entertainment should you choose? It all depends on your party. A solo singer with guitar provides an intimate and immersive experience. A party band will get the dance floor boiling. A DJ can also tailor the music to your wishes and play long without a break. At Limunt, we help you choose - and we take care of all the practicalities so you can focus on your guests.
We offer private party entertainment throughout the country and have a large network of experienced and reliable musicians. You get personalised advice and a solution that matches your budget and needs.

The most frequently asked questions for us!
The name Limunt originated as a contraction of the words Tove Music Entertainment. We have booked music since 2016 through the concepts Jazzkollektivet, Popkollektivet, Strygerkollektivet etc., but decided in 2022 to bring the activity under Limunt and create a better coherence and clarity of our many different offers.
We handpick our musicians from the great Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and German talent pool. In the administration, we all have a background as professional musicians in a wide range of genres. Through our large network, the Danish conservatories, jam sessions throughout the country and by constantly keeping a finger on the pulse of the Danish music scene, we can ensure a high level every time. We make a virtue of onboarding each individual musician so that expectations are aligned from the start. The musicians should do what they do best: play great music - then Limunt handles all the administration around each performance.
Payment will fall after your event. You will receive an invoice from our administration.
In most cases, it is possible to extend the playing time if you do not want the music to stop at the agreed time. However, as we only book professional musicians, there may be circumstances where this is not possible, for example if the musicians have another job later in the day, have an early job the next day or a voice that can't cope any longer. If you want to make sure you have the option to book an extra set of music on the day, we recommend that you arrange this with your Limunt contact so that both you and the musicians are aware of the option.
The prices we quote are in most cases inclusive of transport (to land bridges), VAT and engineering (up to 100 people).
We customise each specific offer - booking everything from a single solo musician playing a single song to live music over several days for larger events. Try our price calculator or contact us for a no-obligation quote.
We provide substitutes in case of illness, so you don't lose the music for your event. We have built up good procedures with our many musicians and have an action plan in case of illness. Our large catalogue of musicians means that in almost all cases we can find a talented replacement in a very short time.
It's hard to give a clear answer, as we book solo musicians, traditional party bands and full orchestras of 9-10 people. A traditional band of 3-5 people should have at least 3×4 meters to stand on. A solo musician can manage on 3×2 meters. However, there are many factors that come into play when it comes to space - so it's best to have a chat with your Limunt contact. A concrete example where the above rule does not quite apply is when booking a party band: here we at Limunt always recommend placing the music in the same room as the bar, as this way you gather the activity and the party in one place - and get more people on the dance floor! If there are not quite 3×4 meters to stand on, we still recommend placing the band at the bar, even if the musicians need to sit a little close, to ensure the good party!
Typically in sets of either 2 x 45 minutes or 3 x 45 minutes. But it all depends on the function of the music: whether it's background music, a beautiful feature or party music to get the party started. We provide everything from a single heartfelt song for the wedding to music for 10 hours during a larger event.
You are always welcome to make suggestions for the repertoire - that way we get to know your taste and try to include everything possible. However, we cannot guarantee to fulfil all your wishes. We are often in dialogue with customers who are very unsure about the repertoire - and we are here to help. By booking more than 500 jobs annually, we know what works for different events. Our professional musicians are also good at reading the audience on the day, which means that changes can be made to the setlist during the performance.
When booking an event with 1-3 songs for e.g. a wedding, we take a dialogue about what is possible - and in most cases we can meet your wishes.
The jazz concept Jazzkollektivet was what started it all in 2016. Then followed Popkollektivet, Strygerkollektivet etc. In 2022 we decided to bring all our concepts and booking together on this new site!
