Oklahoma Wedding DJ For Hire

By Deanne Shepard


The details of your big day are almost complete but you still must book the entertainment. Looking into what an Oklahoma wedding DJ can do for you and what it can add to your reception can help provide you with the perfect option. The proceeding suggestions and tips will help you find the best music for this big event.

Another aspect of this entertainment is the lighting. What you decide on for your event will depend on your budget, the theme of the reception and the number of expected guests. If you are expecting a fun-loving crowd, the more lighting the better. If it is a very quiet and private affair, minimal lighting may be sufficient.

The rest of the professional's set up can make a big difference. If your reception is huge and your professional's work station is smaller than a six-foot table, it can look a little ridiculous. If you have a tiny reception, a flashy and huge station will look even worse. Choose what works best for your event. Ask the professional for photos of how his set up will look. Check his website for more information so you don't have any unpleasant surprises at your own function.

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 professional can do so many other tasks for a happy couple. He can make the bridal party introductions, introduce the first dance and parents' dances, and play sentimental songs for specific guests. He can also help make announcements about the agenda of the evening such as when the meal is going to be served, what time the buffet closes, and where and when the cake will be cut. They are invaluable during the customary toasts and very helpful with loaning their speaker system and microphones to family members and friends who would like to speak during the toast.

Some companies will even have special entertainment available. They may have individuals who can perform dance routines to the music and magicians who do tricks to the tunes. Some professionals even know how to dance and sing. Whether this is a necessary part of the evening is up to the bridal couple and their budget.

The cost of these services are always a consideration. The more you expect this professional to do, the higher the price tag. Don't forget that this is a very special time and the extra funds may be well worth it. You should always compare costs between several companies before making a final decision and signing a contract.

Utilizing the services of these entertainment professionals will add so much to your reception. Selecting the perfect one who matches the personalities of guests and the general event themes will provide a reception that everyone will remember for years and years to come.
