The wedding music you choose and how you choose to play it is a massive part of the atmosphere of the most memorable day of your life.
Your guests will undoubtedly remember your wedding whether everyone was on their feet dancing or if it all fell a bit flat.
Couples on a budget sometimes choose to plug in a Spotify playlist or ask a friend to DJ, however, having an experienced professional in charge can personalise the whole experience and really set alight the atmosphere of your reception.
Anyone can press play on a Spotify playlist, it’s basically the same as putting a £1 in a Jukebox. Never once have I seen people dance all night to a Jukebox
When you book a professional DJ you are not booking them for their music selection, anyone can do that that the easy bit. You are paying for their experience, their personality, their charisma, their mixing ability, and more importantly, being able to read and react to the crowd in an instant.
Brides & Grooms that use playlists genuinely believe the music is precisely what they want to hear and to be honest it probably is!
However, have they considered all guests and genres and, more importantly, what will make the guests tick to pack out the dance floor? Four or Five hours is a very long time to fill with a playlist full of self-selected tunes.
Moreover, most Wedding DJ professionals are also skilled Masters of Ceremonies MCs. A good DJ/MC will set the tone for the whole day and keep all guests up to date with where they need to be and when. This is something that should not be overlooked.
Please don’t be like Bill & Gill.
Don’t trust this very important part of your big day to a Spotify playlist or your Auntie Karen’s Daughter’s Boyfriend who’s had a set of decks for Christmas!
