Above everything else, please have the kind of wedding music that you love. You do want to keep in mind your budget. I think there are several routes you can take to achieve your goal and not spend a fortune.
When my youngest daughter was in high school she played violin. Her music teacher got married and she had her students play strings at the wedding. Wasn't that a great idea for wedding music? Even if you're not a teacher maybe you could work something out with some students.
My middle daughter had her sister's teacher and a small group of strings play her wedding music for a small fee. It was just beautiful. They both had a DJ at the reception.
A DJ is a good choice. You can have it all for not too much money. It could include music for the ceremony and the reception as well as the DJ being emcee for the party.
You may know of a local band that you like that you could get a good deal from. Make sure they know the songs you want to hear. That especially applies to the song for the first dance.
The location of the wedding and reception would certainly dictate what you use to make music. A beach wedding for instance, would be a great place for someone just playing the guitar. It would work great at any kind of wedding actually. I once had a young man play Spanish guitar at a function and it was very beautiful. Use whatever method that is inexpensive and would work for you. It will be beautiful.
