Hiring An Oklahoma Wedding DJ

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.

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 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.

There are many other tasks that a proficient professional can do for the happy couple. They can introduce the bridal party, have dance contests and play special songs for special people in the audience. They can make other announcements about the schedule of events throughout the evening. For example, they can let the crowd know when the dinner is going to be served, what time a buffet is closing, and when and where the cake cutting will be done. They can announce the congratulatory toast and any other special speakers throughout the affair.

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.

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.

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.
