Hiring An Oklahoma Wedding DJ

By Deanne Shepard


You are wrapping up the final details for your reception but have one more matter to attend to. You are checking out the Oklahoma wedding DJ companies and do not know what to look for in a great musical addition to your party. The following tips and suggestions will assist you in finding the perfect entertainment for this once-in-a-lifetime event.

The lighting you choose is extremely important. What you decide on will greatly depend on the main theme and decor of the your reception. If you are having a very quiet, subdued affair, overly large and bright lights and flash will not look right. On the flip side, if you are expecting a large, young crowd, the more lighting and special effects the better. Remember, the more you use, the more it is going to cost.

How you have this professional set up his work area can make all the difference. If you have a very small reception and the business you book sets up a huge, flashy area, it will look rather ridiculous. If you have a huge reception and the set up takes very little space next to a humongous dance floor, it will look just as bad. Seek out the type of arrangement that fits the scope of your event. Always request photos of their equipment and adjust from there. You can also peruse their website for more set up ideas.

Choosing appropriate music for this reception is also extremely important. Most professionals will encourage couples to select their favorites far in advance of the big day. Specific music that can be chosen include the song for the first dance and also the dances with parents. Let the professional know that requests from guests will be highly likely and should be honored as much as time allows. If young children are invited, include interactive and silly songs just for them. This will provide even more entertainment for the guests.

A true professional can assist with the reception in so many ways. Introducing the new couple, holding dance competitions, and playing special songs for special guests are just a few of the extras that they can provide. They are very helpful in making announcements about dinner service, cake cuttings and the departure of the newly married couple. They can also announce the toasts that congratulate the couple and can provide a microphone for family and guest speakers.

Special entertainment is also available from some professionals. There are businesses that can actually put on a show for you with dancers, magic and more. Some professionals know how to sing and dance themselves. This is a personal decision and will depend on the type of entertainment and the price tag is has.

Last but not least, is the cost of this service. The more you ask of this professional, the higher your price will be. Remember that this is a special time and that paying extra for his many services may be well worth the money spent but you should still compare the costs between several different choices to get the best deal.

If you hire to right company to take care of your entertainment needs, it will be the highlight of the evening. Select the right one that matches the personality types of your guests and the overall theme of the event. The right blend of music, entertainment, and guest participation will give you a reception that will be remembered for many years.
