I would like to have some music playing during my wedding reception at the restaurant. Shall we pay the S.I.A.E (seal of the Italian corporation of authors and publishers)?
A. Yes, since the music is played in a public place. The fee to be paid for playing music and songs during private parties (such as weddings, baptisms, birthdays, etc.) will differ according to the fact, if the music entertainment includes dancing or not. The fee is calculated according to the number of the guests and the category of the reception venue. Q.
