on 7/28/2009 Go to your local wedding fairs or find regional bridal magazines to find active vendors that you can talk to and find out what they can do for your wedding day. You will find that some vendors can handle more than one thing or send you in the right direction to get what you are looking for.

on 6/13/2007 Some additional useful tips are in the articles section of http://wedding.romanvirdi.com. IMHO a large music selection doth not a good DJ make.

on 6/30/2006 Hire a pro for your event. I've been doing this for years and trust me - entertainment is one of the biggest things that your guests remember. Don't do it yourself. That is the worst advice I've ever heard!

on 11/22/2005 If you want to save yourself some money and avoid having your reception ruined by some foul-mouthed DJ, consider renting the PA equipment (including a microphone) and loading a CD player with music appropriate to the different parts of the festivities. Offer one of your college-age cousins $100 to baby sit the equipment, and to pop in a CD with the first dance for the couple, and the mom and dad dances. Leave all that tacky "chicken dance" nonsense for somebody else's embarrassing event. If you have to encourage people to act foolish, get a karaoke machine too.
And as for the introductions at the beginning of the reception: Ask your Uncle Jack, the one with the booming, deep voice. He'll be flattered, and chances are he won't mispronounce as many names, cos he'll know most of the people in the wedding party.

on 11/22/2005 If you follow all these tips, get ready to pay some TOP BUCKS!!! True, everyone wants the best DJ but when it comes to paying for the quality, there seems to be a problem.
Don't look too sophisticated and demanding if you don't want to pay TOP BUCKS. For example, I always give my best show, regardless of any discount I may give you. I other words, If you talk too fancy, you will end up paying more for the same show.

on 11/22/2005 Give your DJ specific guidelines about how many smutty jokes and rude records they can play before the bride's mother bursts into tears. Believe me, I've known this to happen!
