I answered this question a few weeks ago.
BTW your question is garbled!
Since you know the answers, why don't you share them?
Which band did you choose? at what cost?
And what were the charges for catering?
You need that info to calculate ticket price to break even(cover expenses).
And what have you tried to solve the problem you presented?
