The Importance of Having a Good DJ At Your Wedding
One of the vital ways to muck in with the guests with grooving on is to play the right music. The role of a DJ(Disco Jockey) can't be ignored in an Indian Wedding, and if you plan to have a reception, you know that one of the essentials is making sure you have music playing for all your guests.
The dance floor is supposed to be filled with joyous and heart-felt memories. DJs not only provide and create mood and entertainment for the wedding ceremony.
Wedding DJs do more than just play music. And much of what they do takes place before they even show up at your venue.
Here are all the things—from start to finish—that a wedding DJ does to make your day everything you’ve always dreamed of.
Your wedding DJ will do far more than just play songs. Here's a list of other important tasks your DJ will handle on your big day.
While your wedding planner or your venue will likely take the lead on creating your wedding day timeline, an experienced DJ will certainly contribute since he/she knows how long certain parts of the reception will take.
What's more, your wedding DJ is responsible for executing and enforcing the timeline during your reception, making announcements to ensure that events occur on time & if there are any hold-ups, adjusting accordingly.
Things may go wrong on your wedding day, but fortunately, wedding DJs are pros at getting things back on track.
- Can create mashups and song cuts
Worried your first dance song might be a bit too long? Your wedding DJ has got you covered! Want to start your father-daughter dance with a slow song and then surprise your guests by cutting into a Michael Jackson favorite? A DJ can create a custom remix just for you.
Emcee may be the most important role your wedding DJ will play. Think of your DJ as the host, cruise director, and point person for the evening, making announcements and ensuring that your guests are aware of what’s going on and what’s next. Having your wedding DJ serve as emcee is far more authoritative and professional than you trying to shout “Time for dinner!” over the blasting music.
Your wedding DJ can be a great source of advice if you’re struggling to pick songs for any of your special dances. An experienced DJ has seen first-hand which songs work and which don’t and is up-to-date on the newest tunes.
While we do recommend hiring a company that specializes in lighting for more extensive needs, many wedding DJs offer uplighting as part of their services. Uplighting consists of smaller lighting systems that can be placed on the floor and aim light upwards to highlight your tables and dance floor.
A good
wedding DJ can help pick up the crowd when the energy on the dancefloor is sluggish or can cool it down and help
wedding guests catch their breath. That’s something that may not happen if you just let your
iPod play through. Not to get too anxious!
