WEDDINGS AND CIVIL PARTNERSHIPS
Weddings/C.P's are a landmark occasion in your relationship by their very nature and so should be fun and well organised as they
will be remembered not just by the bride and groom but by family and friends for life. It follows therefore, that you need a
professional (watch out for amatures supplied by hotels at budget rates) who will show up (!) and smooth things along nicely, anouncing
the various stages such as the first dance /boquet toss etc. with confidence and authority -oh and with a decent mic. and sound
system too..
All this stuff is important as it makes the difference between a stylish and punchy affair and one of those "Peter
kay" type discos that you've seen on tv. ie: playing or saying the wrong stuff at the wrong time on dodgy gear - ouch!!
Here's
an interesting survey from Pro Mobile Magazine:
Within a week of their reception 78% of brides say they would have made the entertainment
their highest priority and 81% say this is the part they remember the most.
Almost 100% say that they would have spent more of their
budget on entertainment (as opposed to the cake and dare I say the dress! Ok, forget I said that..) and in an earlier question
65% of the couples that hired a band say that if they could go back and do it again they would have chosen a good DJ.
NB. If you are
hiring a band as well as a DJ or even just a band if you're undecided, I can help you with this As I know of several good
ones. If you go it alone, make sure you get a demo cd first and ask if all the muso's on the cd are going to be there on the night.
Backing tracks are passable but nothing like the real deal.
Just enough room to remind you that As you can see above; if you
hire me you wont have to worry about a thing. What more can I say?
