Wedding DJ Tips: Cocktail Hour & Dinner Vibes
Curated Cocktail Hour & Dinner Vibes
After the Formal Part of a wedding, the Dancing part is definitely the highlight of the night. Why? because it is. When I talk to a couple, one of the first question I ask is: What kind of vibe are you looking for at your wedding.? As a DJ / Band or any type of live performer, our job is to to curate an atmosphere and controlling the vibe and flow of the the couples special day.
Couples and their guests expect to have a great time and create lifetime memories. So Curating the right energy during cocktail hour and dinner to set up the dancing part is very important. As a DJ, it is my job to build up the energy as we get closer and closer to dancing. Playing the right music at the right time is important for the ambience. When consulting your couple, be sure to inquire what kind of energy they would like. For both their cocktail hour and dinner music, work with them. Learn about their style, what they want and also tell them what you can bring to the table to elevate the ambiance. Even though the music might at a lower volume during that time, you must set the mood right because it’s all part of the experience. So curate a playlist that will create a mood and subtly speak to the guests.
This will set the party to a great start leading to an amazing dancing part of the night.
