DJs (and MCs) need to understand that a wedding reception is not a dance. It's a social event, a major life-cycle occasion at which there will dining, dancing, photography, videography and socializing. Most of all, almost without exception, our clients tell us they want their reception to be fun. The word fun comes in front of dancing almost every time. They may see dancing as a way to have fun, but it's only one way.
I'd prefer to look from the perspective of how many minutes are available to the clients, and then find out how they would most like to spend those minutes. I would say that three minutes spent laughing is much better than a minute spent enduring a meaningless string of names being recited by a guy on a microphone.
So when you begin your search for your wedding MC and DJ, what's more important to you: having one hour of good dancing at the end of the night, or five hours of the most fun, memorable PARTY you and your guests have ever experienced?
And how would you want those five hours spent? Do you want your guests participating and feeling involved in your celebration, or do you want them to just painfully sit through an emcee that talks and talks and talks forever?
Profoundly,
