Every wedding service provider has
their own priorities when it comes to your reception. The
photographer has to get their pictures and the caterer has to serve
the food and clear the tables. These and other duties are sometimes
done without any consideration to how it may impact other aspects of
the reception. Sure, you may need to take extra time for photos but
to make your guests wait for more than an hour is a very bad idea.
You need somebody there who is seeing the big picture and actively
working to keep these different pieces from clashing in the timeline
and potentially causing your guests to do the one thing that nobody
wants; Leaving early.
Of all the vendors you may hire and
work with on your big day, your MC/DJ is by far your best ally in the
battle to make your reception successful. Your MC/DJ’s priorities
are to keep the events flowing smoothly and to keep your guests happy
while enabling all of your vendors to achieve their goals for the
event. Being able to spontaneously see all of the pieces and then
fitting them together is something that only an experienced MC/DJ who
is tuned in to your goals can offer.
The right DJ will also be able to work
with you in order to create more of a spotlight for you to shine, or
to downplay that spotlight if being the center of attention is not
your thing.
Choose your MC/DJ wisely as they are
truly your closest ally on your wedding day.
