Wedding Reception DJ

For most of our wedding dj clients, we just provide our services as a wedding reception DJ only.  The majority of wedding ceremonies take place in a church, but if you need music for a wedding ceremony, we can do that too.

The typical wedding DJ itinerary begins in the order listed below, however, we leave it up to the bride and groom to switch it up, add, remove, or modify any of the following activities:

Wedding DJ Itinerary Planning

Planning your reception’s activities is key to a fun and successful event.  We ask all of our clients to fill out our wedding DJ itinerary form and send to the DJ early in the week of their wedding.

Activities We Cover

Below is a listing of the main things you will need to plan out for your reception.  Our DJs are happy to answer any questions and concerns you will have as you plan your wedding itinerary.  We will be happy to offer our advice as well if you are not sure.

• Guest Arrival and Cocktail Hour – DJ plays music genre specified by the Bride and Groom
• Bridal Party Arrival and Grand Introduction – DJ announces the Bridal Party to an introduction song that you select.
• Blessing – DJ announces the person who will be saying grace just prior to dinner
• Dinner – DJ announces the dinner arrangements (served or buffet).  If dinner is the buffet style, DJ can (upon request) release tables to the buffet to avoid any waiting in line for the guests.  DJ will also play the appropriately specified music genre(s) specified by Bride and Groom.
• Toasts – DJ announces each person in the order specified that will be giving a toast for the bride and groom
• Cake Cutting – DJ announces bride and groom will be cutting their wedding cake.  Clients specify a specific song to cut their cake to.
• First Dance – DJ asks bride and groom to the dance floor an announces the song and artist that they have selected
• Father and Bride Dance – DJ asks the father of the bride to join his newlywed daughter on the dance floor for a special dance to the song of their choice.
• Mother and Groom Dance – DJ asks the mother of the groom to join her newlywed groom on the dance floor for a special dance to the song of their choice.

• Wedding Party Dance – DJ announces all members of the Bridal Party to the dance floor for their specially selected song.  DJ, upon request can also invite other members of their immediate family to join them as well.
• Garter and Bouquet Toss – DJ announces all single ladies to the dance floor for the traditional wedding bouquet toss.  Once complete, DJ announces that groom will now remove his wife’s garter and then toss (or flick) to all single guys at the reception.  Again, clients are asked to select the songs of their choice, however, we can always pick the songs for you as well.
• Anniversary Dance – DJ announces all married couples to the dance floor for the a special dance.  DJ can also play the married couples game and ask those who have been married for 5, then 10, then 20 , and so on years to leave the dance floor during the song until we have determined a winner of the longest number of years married couple remains.
• Couples Dance, single and married – DJ invites all couples to the floor for a special slow love song
• Open Party Dancing – This is when the party portion of the reception begins.  A good wedding DJ will typically play some songs that everyone knows to get the dance floor going.
• Last Dance – DJ announces the last song of the evening (typically a slow dance song) and asks everyone to join the bride and groom for the receptions final dance.
