Disco???? advice needed

Shely, 17 January, 2014 at 16:50 Posted on Planning 0 1

Hi all. Could really use some advice. Im getting married in july and we are having a civil ceremony followed by wedding breakfast. The ceremony is at 3.30 pm. The wedding started off tiny with just 20 guests, it has now somehow doubled lol. We had decided originally to have a bit of our own music playing on the evening which h2b is happy with and for our guests to mingle and have a drink etc. Now i realise 40-45 guests is still a small wedding but i feel a bit bad about not having a proper dj etc especially as most guests have booked rooms to stay the whole night also. I actually love having a dance so kinda want the proper thing. However h2b thinks it is already way bigger than we had planned and thinks we would lose the relaxed style plus the extra expense it would be. I think the venue will be fine if we had a dance with our music playing im just not sure it would work. Not sure whether to buy some disco lights and hope for best or keep on at h2b until he caves in :-D

Anyone doing/done similar? Any advice/thoughts greatly appreciated.

    A good DJ adds to the evening...not take it away. They do a lot more than play the music. They can create an atmosphere, get some fun going etc.

    If you do decide to have a DJ, choose wisely. You seem to have a very clear idea of what you want your evening to be like.

    Ask questions of prospective DJs such as... volume... are they mindful that some people want to socialise and talk

    Also ask them what they would do to keep the evening relaxed.

    We're all very different!
