Why booking a DJ should be one of the FIRST things you do when planning a wedding

As you begin planning your dream wedding, you’ll quickly realize there are many important details to consider. From choosing the perfect venue to selecting the right caterer, there are endless decisions to make. However, one of the most critical choices you’ll make (and in our opinion the most important) is your music entertainment.

Booking your music entertainment should be one of the first things on your wedding planning checklist. Why, you ask? Well, let’s take a closer look.

 

1. Availability

Music entertainment is in high demand, especially during peak wedding season (October – March). By booking your music entertainment early, you’ll be able to secure the best DJs or musicians for your big day. Waiting too long could result in a limited selection of available options or not being able to book your first choice. Popular wedding DJs and musicians are in high demand, and they often book up months, if not years in advance. By booking early, you can secure the entertainment you want and avoid disappointment.

 

2. Music sets the tone

Your music entertainment will set the tone for your entire wedding day. From the moment your guests arrive to the last dance of the night, your music will play a significant role in creating the ambiance you desire. Whether you want a lively party or a more relaxed atmosphere, your music entertainment will help you achieve your desired vibe. Booking early will allow also more preparation time, to ensure your event is perfectly planned.

 

3. Professionalism and Experience

Booking your music entertainment early allows you to choose from the most experienced and professional DJs or musicians. They’ll have a deep understanding of how to read a crowd, select the right songs, and keep the party going all night long. You want to ensure that your wedding day is in the hands of true professionals who will make it a memorable experience for you and your guests. People also leave weddings remembering the music and party. Don’t risk booking this late and not placing importance on this.

 

4. Customisation

Your music entertainment should reflect your personal style and preferences. Booking early will give you ample time to work with your Event Manager  and DJ to create a customised playlist that fits your vision for your special day. With their experience and knowledge of music, they’ll be able to create a playlist that will keep your guests on their feet and create a unique and unforgettable atmosphere. At Ministry of DJs we start the wedding planning process early  with a fun little questionnaire to find out more about you and your partner’s personality style, to help guide us at the initial stages of planning as a small example.

 

5. Peace of mind

Finally, booking your music entertainment early will give you peace of mind. Knowing that you’ve secured the right entertainment for your big day will allow you to focus on other aspects of your wedding planning without worrying about last-minute details. You can rest easy knowing that your music entertainment is in good hands and that your wedding day will be everything you’ve ever dreamed of. All you need to worry about is bringing your dancing shoes on the night!
