NOBODY SITS MIKE IN THE CORNER! SEATING YOUR DJ SETS THE STAGE FOR ENTERTAINING!
As a couple, you have probably had a situation that became problematic and stressful when figuring out who gets to sit where during the dinner portion of your wedding. Putting groups together (while sometimes keeping others apart) is essential to ensure that your wedding celebration goes off without a hitch. But it isn’t just about the placement of the wedding party and party attendees; where you seat your wedding DJ also matters, so choose wisely! These are five tips to keep the music and crowd rolling loud!
THE RECEPTION AREA IS NO PLACE TO SET UP YOUR DJ!
Many wedding planners suggest that you put the DJ in the reception area, so the music isn’t too loud for your older guests and you have more room to mingle. We get it: sometimes you don’t want the risk of hiring someone who doesn’t know how to rally the crowd, but that isn’t the case with us. When you hire a wedding DJ with expertise, engagement, and club-style skills, you want to make sure that they are the center of the attention – not an afterthought. It’s a good idea when you hire us to put us front and center instead of out of the way and hidden.
READ THE ROOM!
When you’re planning who sits where it is imperative to read the room – meaning don’t sit those who are likely to bring it down next to the music! Grandma and Grandpa or even stuffy uncle Bill are more apt to ask the DJ to turn it down a notch. Even if they don’t, they will probably have massive RBF the entire time, which doesn’t bring the fun!
TAG THOSE WHO WILL GET THE PARTY STARTED
Just like you don’t want Pops sitting next to the DJ, you do want those who will get the party started to be in the DJ’s line of vision. Although we will know your favorites before the celebration even begins, there will always be those who will rush to the stage to bring it on. Give them a B line so that they can keep the good times coming! We are the opposite of the mullet: we are party up front, business in the back!
PLACE THE DJ BY THE DANCE FLOOR
Not only do you want to make it convenient for those who want to suggest music to make it to us; but you also want to make sure that we have a clear view of the dance floor. As much as you need to read the room before the celebration, we will also watch and read your guests to ensure that everyone is getting in on the fun. If we notice that people aren’t out there twerking, we will hype it and get people up and shaking it!
