Stage wedges are angled speakers used give musicians individual mixes on stage. These are usually very directional so if placed correctly are only feeding the ear of the musician and make it easier to control feedback. They are great for small to medium size venues but the larger the stage and the more movement of the musicians the more monitors you will need.
Side fills are large speakers placed at either side of the stage and feed all musicians one mix. These add to stage noise and can create more problems in the way of feedback. Musicians can't have individual mixes.
In ear monitoring removes any worry of monitor feed back and musicians can hear the mix they want to hear perfectly so are great for large venues. However they isolate musicians from each other and the audience. They also reduce the volume on stage.
