Why You Need a DJ for Your Wedding Ceremony
By DJ Justin Warwick from DJ Enterprises Mobile Disc Jockey & Photo Booth
Wedding ceremonies are one of the most important events in our lives. It’s a celebration of love and the beginning of a new life together. Planning a wedding is a challenging task, and there are many details to consider to make it perfect. One of the most important aspects of a wedding ceremony is the music. Music sets the tone for the entire event and adds to the ambiance. Hiring an experienced professional DJ for your wedding ceremony is a wise decision for various reasons, including a sound system, prelude music, parents seating music, bridal party music, brides’ processional, recessional music, lapel microphones, and a microphone for readings during the ceremony. The DJ can also make announcements like “Everyone please be seated; the ceremony is about to begin.”
Wedding ceremony prelude
Prelude music is played before the wedding ceremony begins. It sets the tone for the event and creates a welcoming ambiance for your guests upon their arrival. It’s essential to choose the right music for this part of the ceremony. A DJ can help you select the appropriate music that will create the perfect atmosphere for your guests, you can choose to have all instrumentals, or a mix with some of your favorites.
Parents Seating Music
The parents of the bride and groom are an essential part of the wedding ceremony. The music played when they are being seated should be appropriate and respectful. A DJ can help you choose the right music for this part of the ceremony and ensure that it’s played at the right time.
Bridal Party Music
The bridal party is an integral part of the wedding ceremony. They play an important role in setting the tone for the event. The music played when the bridal party enters the ceremony should be upbeat and fun. A DJ can help you choose the right music that will create the perfect atmosphere for your guests. I recommend: “Begin Again” by the Piano Guys
Brides Processional
The bride’s processional is one of the most important parts of the wedding ceremony. The music played during this time should be emotional and appropriate for the occasion. A DJ can help you select the perfect music for this part of the ceremony. I recommend: “Canon in D Major” by Steven Pasero
Recessional Music
The recessional music is played at the end of the wedding ceremony when the bride and groom are leaving, after being pounced. The music played during this time should be upbeat and celebratory. A DJ can help you choose the right music that will create the perfect atmosphere for your guests. A fun one is: “Lovely Day” by Bill Withers
Lapel Microphones
Lapel microphones are essential for the officiant and groom, or bridegroom during the wedding ceremony. These microphones ensure that everyone can hear the vows and promises made during the ceremony. A DJ can provide these microphones and ensure that they are set up correctly. “Check, Check”
Microphone for Readings
Readings are an essential part of many wedding ceremonies. It’s important that the guests can hear the readings clearly. A DJ can provide a microphone for the person who will be doing the readings, if any, to ensure that their voice is projected clearly.
In conclusion, hiring an experienced DJ for your wedding ceremony is an essential part of the planning process. They can help you select the appropriate music for each part of the ceremony, provide lapel microphones for the officiant and groom, and ensure that everyone can hear the readings during the ceremony. A DJ can help make your wedding ceremony a memorable, problem free event that you and your guests will cherish for a lifetime.
