Wedding Engagement at The Village Hotel

admin — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 09:17:58 +0000

Last night I had the pleasure of DJing at a local venue which was new to me. A very unusual hotel, as all the walls where painted dark grey. Rather than a Gothic look it create a very modern and stylish feel. The party was a great success and finished on the best think you can hear at the end of an engagement party… “Are you free for the wedding then?”

Weddings – Fizzle or Bang?

admin — Wed, 13 Oct 2010 13:39:40 +0000

How do you want your function to end? Do you want it to slowly fizzle out or would you rather have a truly magnificent big bang to the end?

I think we already know the answer is you want a bang, after all you want your guests to remember your wedding as the wedding the best they have been to! So what’s the best way to do this? Amongst other thing, finish on a big bang!

Sometime we are asked to start a wedding disco relatively early, around 6 pm and finish quite late, around 1 am. To some this may sound like a great idea, I mean who wouldn’t want 6 hours of non-stop partying… however the problem is that often after a long eventful day your guests will often start to feel that all the enjoyment is slowly taking it toll on them, so they start to feel tired, especially so after a beautiful 3 course meal topped off with some delicious wedding cake – that concoction would make anyone feel like their eye lids are getting heavy. But fear not, we have a tendency to perk up any party, but that’s not to say that some due attention is needed when thinking about what times you should start and finish your disco.

Generally you don’t need to determine your start time as that’s usually an hour after the meal (if the venue are having a turn around and you wish for a short refreshing break) as for the finish time…. well, whilst there is no optimal or maximum time your guest will keep on dancing, we generally find that a 4 hour wedding disco is about the right balance. You and your guests will get 4 non-stop hours of musical enjoyment and wedding entertainment which should leave any one’s feet feeling a bit sore (let alone anyone who has had a busy day!) whilst not going on for too long.

However if you decided to go on for a bit longer, from our experience what we have noticed is actually rather than stay till the end, guests slowly drop off and depart. This of course means that actually your event has finish slowly in a fizzle with the remaining few guests, rather than having all your friends and family surround you in a grand circle creating a truly magical moment and that big bang of a finish.

If you can imagine its a lot easier for a guest to say “there’s only 30 minutes, lets stay till the end” rather than “there’s still another hour and a half left, lets get our coat, say goodbye and make our way”.

So hopefully you can see how the difference in an hours extra music actually isn’t always best. Don’t get me wrong, if you want to party on till the early hours we will make that happen for you and will strive to do the best job we can – just spare a thought the fizzle or bang idea!

Significance of a Contract for Reception

admin — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 09:32:36 +0000

Have you just hired the entertainment for your reception? If, yes then developing a contract will be essential for both parties to come to a mutual agreement.

When you our hiring someone whether it’s a wedding DJ, live band or disco specialist a contract is very necessary. The contract will have both you and the other person being hired come to terms on prints. When people discuss a reception it’s probably the most memorable part of the whole entire wedding. So you need to have the entertainer agree that they will make your reception exactly on how you planned it out to be.

A contract is also essential because you will know upfront the pricing of everything and what the entertainer will be trying to charge you. The contract can include overtime, extra fee’s and so forth for you to agree upon. Having a contract developed is great because you can also include what should be expected the day of the reception, just in case something were to occur you can look back and reflect on the contract that both you and them have agreed upon. Let’s say the person you plan on hiring does not want to sign or agree upon a contract. If this is the case you should not do any business with this person. You should begin your selection process again to find someone that will agree to a contract. The contract is not only helping you but it is also helping the entertainer as well. You may also want to question the person you plan to hire, asking them their experience with weddings.

You may want to look over their wedding experiences when you plan to hire anyone. Once you have develop terms that you both agree on then a contract should be developed at this time which both of you should sign stating that both parties agree with the terms included in the contract. When you are planning your special day you always have to remember that this is your day and things should go properly just like you expected them.

No one once to face any bad surprises on the day of their wedding so adding a contract is just that extra security to make sure everything will go as planned.

Choosing a Disco Specialist for the Reception

admin — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 12:30:49 +0000

Are you preparing for your reception and you have decided to select a disco specialist. Then you are making an excellent choice in hiring a disco specialist.

The normal selection for a wedding reception is either selecting a wedding DJ or a live band. Nowadays many couples have the choice to go with a hiring a disco specialist. If you are not familiar at all I am going to explain what a wedding disco specialist is. When it comes to a wedding disco specialist they are pretty similar to wedding DJ and a live band but combined with a little bit both. With a disco specialist they can play music which sounds similar to a live band but at the fraction of the cost. Another great thing about a disco specialist they can also play tons of different songs just like a wedding DJ.

The reason why a disco specialist really differs from the two is a wedding disco will bring all of these factors from a wedding DJ and l ive band all together with a twist. The reception can be similar to a live show; the wedding disco can provide a lighting element to really entertain your guest. The whole reception will be bound to hit the dance floor and dance the night away and the reception should be a big boom of success. When you are in the process of interviewing a disco specialist they can tell you what the options you have available for them to perform. This way both you and the specialist will have a perfect understanding on what you both look to expect for the day of the wedding.

Asking questions is very important to receive the answers you are looking for this is reception so you most likely want it to be conducted on how you planned it to be. It’s very important for you and the disco specialist to come up with a mutual agreement, so come up with some sort of contract. This way everything from pricing, to what is expected will be written into the contract so everyone will l be happy and satisfied the day of. Make sure your wedding disco specialist can agree to all the terms that you have laid out for him and her. If the disco specialist does not want to sign the contract or agree to it your best bet is to choose another disco specialist that will agree to the terms you provide.

Interviewing your prospected Reception Entertainment

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 14:30:49 +0000

Is your wedding right around corner? Have you selected the music entertainment that will be played at the reception? If you haven’t yet then this is an essential article for you to read on how to choose the entertainment for your reception.

The music at the reception is really one of the most important aspects of the whole entire reception. One of the most important things on your to do list when finding the right entertainment is the interview process. Many people dread interviewing other people but this is essential for you when it comes to hiring someone. You are hiring a person to do a job for you therefore you should be familiar with who will be playing the music for your reception before you try to hire them.

Depending on whether you decide to select a wedding DJ, a live band, or disco specialist you should interview a couple of candidates to narrow down your search. Remember everyone’s personality is unique and different in your own way you are looking for someone to match the personality of the reception and how you feel it should go. There are some questions that you should ask your prospected entertainment, ask them if they are familiar with the venue that is selected? Hiring someone who is very familiar with the venue can make your reception occur more smoothly. Now specifically ask your entertainment if he or she will be the ones to be playing the music at your reception, some cases people may get hired and have other people perform for them the day of, make that clear from the beginning.

Also begin to look at the pricing, overtime, unexpected fee’s and so forth. You and the person you want to hire should address a contract from both parties so you both can agree to terms and what should be expected the day of the wedding. If your entertainer does not want to agree to a contract I would highly recommend you to choose someone else for the job. A contract is essential for you and the entertainment so there won’t be any further problems the day of the wedding. This way you both can agree to terms with no trouble’s in between because you have a contract.

So make your selection wisely and you are bound to find the right entertainer for you.

admin — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 14:29:16 +0000

Congratulations, if you are expecting an up and coming wedding. You must be very anxious in getting ready and preparing for your big day ahead of you. This is your special day and you would love for everything to be exactly what you dreamed of. So now everything is falling in place but you still haven’t chosen the music choice to be played at your reception. You can ask anyone around and they will tell you that the music selection of your choice for the reception is extremely important. Just like the icing that will be on your wedding cake that’s what the music is at the reception. The reception is basically the celebration party for the bride and groom after they have walked down the aisle, and say their lovely vows. The reception just compliments everything else afterwards. Currently the bride and groom have some differen t choices that they can choice from for their own reception. Let’s discuss, a famous choice that many couples select is hiring a professional DJ. When you are looking for DJ’s selecting the right disc jockey for the reception is very incentive.

The music at your reception will really determine if it was a success or not. In many cases there are a ton of different DJ’s that you can possibly choose from. Another choose, that the bride and groom can choose from is selecting a live band. Do you know of a live band that you enjoy their music? Then if you do you will love to hire a live band for your wedding reception. This could be the absolutely right selection for you. Having a live band will thrill your guest with the great sound the band can produce at the reception. Or if you want something more versatile you might look into hiring a Disco Specialist, with the disco entertainment industry expanding, now you have the option of having a live band and a DJ all at once when you hire a disco specialist. This type of music played can really give your guest a show that they won’t forget. A disco specialist can really provide music for the mood of the tone.

No matter what choice you decide to go with when selecting music for your reception it is always your choice and different options are available.
