The reception is where picking a good DJ really helps the bride and groom celebrate their marriage with their friends. The music really does set the mood and a Disk Jockey with a good collection of CDs is a must. The DJ is also an Master Of Ceremonies at times - - doing announcement, setting the mood, telling jokes and other items.

You should also bring your OWN CD if you want to hear a special song. There are lots of songs out there and a DJ certainly has a lot, but it is very doubtful if they have everything.

Talk to the DJ and find out what kind of music he usually plays. Ask for a play sheet of the records that he has. This will help determine if the music that he has is what you want played.

No endorsement is made toward any of these DJs. They are just some of the ones that have played at weddings I have attended. I was very busy photographing to take critical note of how well they did overall. I do coordinate with them (for photographs and timing etc.) and these people I had no problem working with. People did get up and dance for at least 1/2 the time music played which is about normal.

A site to find Wedding DJs is WEDJ.COM. It is both a DJ and photo referral site. I am listed on there.
