I just added a comprehensive guide to the Training section of my main website, to help wedding planners and brides who need to select a DJ. The guide will also help a developing DJ realize the critical importance of making sure things go right if you're selected to provide the music and/or be the Master of Ceremonies.
The page on my main website goes into far more detail than this blog post, so I'd suggest that you click on the link below, and visit the website right away:
Basically, here are some of the things that I cover on that page:
The Importance of a Professional DJ:
- Time commitment required.
- Planning.
- Providing professional sound and lighting systems.
- Surveys from brides demonstrating how important the Entertainment is.
Challenges & Key Considerations:
- Equipment Required.
- Lighting.
- More than just playing music.
- How a DJ's credentials are vetted.
- Cultural sensitivity.
You've Picked Your DJ. What's Next?
- Deposits & service contracts.
- Pre-planning & consultation.
- Documenting requirements.
Picking the Music
- Categories for specific parts of the evening.
- Hundreds of suggested tracks for various special songs.
I think this information will be really useful to anyone involved in event planning for weddings. Trust me, it'll be worth your time to review it. Again, here's the link:
