YOUR WEDDING DISC JOCKEY

Did you know that over 70% of Bridal couples will hire a Disc Jockey and 11% will use a wedding consultant! (source - Today's Bride 2007)

So if your going to have a Disc Jockey provide your entertainment at your wedding reception what do you need to know? What should you look for in a Disc Jockey? How much should you budget?

 These are just some of the many questions you may have. We will try to answer some of them here, although the best way to get all your questions answered is with one of our free, no obligation, in home consultations.

One of the most important things to look for is experience!

Performing with over 20 years of experience at Weddings, our Disc Jockeys have the talent and knowledge that only years of experience can give you. Sure its easy to down load all kinds of music (which is illegal to play in public) and rent a sound system, and charge a "unprofessional fee", print a business card and call your self a "Professional Disc Jockey". Some people do this, however, you can't buy, lease or rent experience. There is no substitute for experience and you may have to pay a little more for it, however, you will be happier in the end. Our team of Disc Jockeys have years of experience to make your event come alive, create the memories and good times you are looking for at your wedding reception.

How much

do I need to

BUDGET?

 

We are active members of the Canadian Professional Disc Jockey Association, one of the few associations that allows its members to network with other professionals in business and actively promotes the Professional Disc Jockey industry at wedding shows, events and venue's across Canada.

Music, Music, Music

Our extensive Music Library consists of more than 20,000 tracks of songs spanning from the 1940's to today's current hits, all on Compact Disc, thus allowing us to please every age, style and musical taste. YES! We play REQUESTS because we realize your guests input contributes to the success of your event. Our experienced Wedding Disc Jockeys will arrange a program that's right for you and your guests, we won't play it too loud, or too soft, but just right for dancing or just listening at tables. 

We are AVLA Licensed for your peace of mind. For more information on Music Licensing click here!

Our Sound Systems

All of our Disc Jockeys go out to events with current Professional Industry Standard Equipment from our Mixing Boards and CD Players to our Amplifiers and Speakers, all rack mounted in custom made road cases and upgraded on a regular basis. We keep our gear current to minimize break downs and failures that can some times bring an event to a halt. All our Disc Jockeys carry back up equipment to every function, and we always have emergency staff on stand by.

Music for your Ceremony

We often provide Music and Equipment for the Ceremony including background music for guests before and after the service. Music for your processional, recessional and signing of the record. We can also provide a microphone for your vow's, even if you have live music during your ceremony it's nice for everyone to be able to hear your vows. We also specialize in Outdoor and Tent Weddings!

OUR BLACK TIE ENTERTAINERS

Our Disc Jockeys and Entertainer's wear "Black Tie" attire.  This is one of our standards.  They need to look good as well as sound good as they interact with you and your guests. They have taken speech and vocal training and will only use the microphone when needed.

They can handle all your special Dances and announcements including the following:

 

Grand Entrance

The Grand Entrance is when the members of the Wedding party, followed by the  Bride and Groom are formally introduced into the reception area. This announcement is usually made by the MC, however can be handled by the Disc Jockey.

 

First Dance

This is typically the first dance you will have as Husband & Wife.  It was once called the Bridal Waltz.  Traditionally, the first wedding dance has been a Waltz. In modern times Ballroom Dancing is no longer a widespread skill, and rehearsing the first dance has become a lucrative business for some dance studios and independent dance instructors. Today more popular dances include the Rumba, Foxtrot, or Two-step. Alternatively, many couples just do a slow dance.  Another new trend is scheduling the first dance immediately after wedding party introductions (Grand Entrance) and before the toast or meal.

 

Parent Dance(s)

After the first dance, the Groom may escort his Bride to her Father for a special Father/Daughter dance. This maybe followed by a Mother/Son dance.

 

Cake Cutting

Typically, a Wedding cake from a professional baker is displayed until after dinner.  The couple cut the cake and may feed a bite to one another. After this, the cake is cut for the guests and served as dessert or later on a sweet table. This cake is typically at least two tiers, often more. Some couples have a smaller, formal, display cake, which is supplemented by sheet cake.

 

Bouquet Toss

Traditionally the Bride will carry the bouquet down the aisle, and the Maid of Honor will hold it during the ceremony. After the wedding, the bride will toss it over her shoulder to the single women.  It is believed that whoever catches the bouquet is the next in line to be married.

 

Garter

Similarly, the Groom tosses the Bride's garter to the single men, often after removing it from her leg. On occasion, the Bride will "rig" the bouquet toss by tossing the bouquet to a woman who is engaged. The Groom then arranges for the Fiancé of the bouquet toss winner to receive the Bride's garter. Sometimes the man who catches the garter is supposed to put it on the leg of the woman who catches the bouquet or the garter is sold in a raffle instead of being tossed.

 

Last Dance

 Also called the "Farewell" dance.  This is the last dance the Bride & Groom share before leaving the reception early to go on to their honeymoon. Today most Brides and Grooms stay to the end of the reception, however, they may still have a last dance.

 

Other Traditions

Wedding traditions vary between countries, and between regions of the same country. Some traditions include:

A " Money dance" or dollar dance. Guests pay a small amount of money to dance with the Bride or Groom. In some cultures, the money is pinned to a special apron worn by the Bride or Groom. In others, the money is collected by friends, who sometimes give a shot of alcohol to each guest as they pay. This is prevalent among Polish and Italian couples, although many other Brides and Grooms often incorporate it. There is considerable debate in social circles regarding the Money Dance; traditional etiquette frowns upon this practice unless the couple and the majority of their guests are of one of the cultures in which it is traditional.

 

LIGHTING Your RECEPTION

Add colour to what may be dull or poorly lit rooms. We can fill your reception with colour by washing walls and pillars with colour that match your Theme or tone, this will add to the ambience of the reception. Create an energy or "pulse" on your dance floor with your choice of dance floor lighting packages.

SLIDE SHOW or VIDEO Presentation

Have you thought about putting on a presentation for your guests at your reception? Perhaps a slide show or video of you both as toddlers and growing up to present day.  We can help, from a simple screen and projector rental, or the production of your slide show,  to providing professional Audio Visual equipment to present it.

We can connect the audio through our professional sound system and your MC or our Disc Jockey will host the introduction of your special presentation.
