WEDDINGS
“In all cultures, music is a key factor in celebrations from the days of early man.
It is a vital part of our lives and has the power to change the way we feel.” – unkown
Over the years I have worked with countless couples and wedding coordinators in achieving the perfect musical soundscape for their very special day. Each ceremony gets individualized attention based on the information gathered during the initial phone consultation. Nothing is overlooked, together we will compose a solid music program that fits your style, from dinner/cocktail music, first dances, father/daugther & Mother/son dances, bouquet/garter tosses and down to what you want to boogie to. I have thousands of songs in all genres from the classics to today’s hottest hits!
The entertainment for your wedding accounts for less than 10% of the overall budget, but is responsible for over 50% of the events success. There is nothing worse than having a “hobbyist” wedding dj that takes over the party with his own personal style and never gets to the music that you requested. This is YOUR day! I will ensure that you get exactly what you pay for.
For the 4-5 hours that I will physically be playing music on your wedding day, there are an equal amount of hours of work that are dedicated to your event before, and after the wedding. It starts with the initial email correspondence, phone consultations and face-to-face meetings prior to the event. Once the details are worked out, I spend a good amount of time researching, downloading and processing the music that you have requested. One the day of the event, travel time and set up/breakdown accounts for about 2-3 hours of time, depending on the location.
During your wedding I will be working hand-in-hand with your coordinator to ensure a smooth transition between the different phases of the program. I will also act as your Master of Ceremonies (MC) and make announcements from time to time so that everyone is aware of what is happening next. Depending on your personal taste, I can simply be a part of the background or I can take charge and motivate your guests to dance and have a great time.
In order to better understand your personal musical styles I have put together the special request form below. Please fill in as many boxes as possible with the name of the song AND the artist. If you do not recall the name of the artist but remember the name of the song please leave that information and I will do the research to find who the artist is.
