Hiring An Oklahoma Wedding DJ For Your Special Day

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 scheme of your event is very important. The type you decide on will depend on the overall theme of your reception. If it is just a quiet, elegant affair, large amounts of lighting and flash will look inappropriate but if it is a large, rambunctious function, the more lights, smoke and glitter, the better. The amount of lighting needed will also make a difference in the 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 the most appropriate lyrics and songs for the reception is also a priority. Your chosen company should allow the new couple to preselect songs in advance for the special dances such as the parents' dance or the first dance. Guests will also want to choose their own types of dance music. If several children are in attendance, arrange to have music played just for them to help make the party even more memorable.

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.

These professionals can sometimes even provide special entertainment. Some can actually do a show for guests complete with dancers and magicians. Sometimes the lead professional can sing and dance himself. Whether you want to add this to your itinerary is a personal decision but be aware that it will cost extra.

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.

Hiring the right professional will make all the difference on your special day. Choosing the one that matches the personality of the event and the type of guests you are expecting will give you a reception that will be remembered for years to come.
