DIY - I can DJ my own Wedding ... Really?

Planning to try to DJ your own wedding via an ipod or internet service like Spotify? One word - DON'T.
No, not just because we are a DJ Service, there are so many reasons why hiring a Professional Wedding DJ is smarter and worth the money.

When you choose to try to DJ your own wedding, there are things you must plan for.
1. You will need a way to plug into speaker system - some venues do provide this, at a fee.
2. You will have to pick out enough music to fill the whole evening - plus arrange it in a reasonable playlist consistent with the flow of the event.
3. You will need someone constantly monitoring the setup - to keep your friends from saying "I hate this song" and hitting skip or adding songs that they want to hear (have seen fights erupt over this)
4. You will need someone do all the announcements - announce you into the room, first dance, etc - which you will also need a microphone for (unless you have a really loud friend).
5. If using a streaming service - you will need a backup plan for if the connection gets dropped or internet goes out.
6. You also must be ready for your friends to bug you throughout the night about what song they want to hear next.

A professional DJ Service takes the hassle out of the music part of your day. With a DJ you will:
1. Have a complete sound system setup
2. Have Dance Floor and/or Up Lighting to enhance the atmosphere
3. You still will be able to compile a list of songs you want, but with a DJ you will not have to find 4 plus hours worth
4. The DJ will handle all announcements - from Grand Entrance to Bouquet Toss and Last Dance.
5. DJs have a vast library of music on their computers - and can do requests from your guests -- and can also screen those requests, so a song that is not appropriate at a wedding does not get played.
6. You are Guaranteed to have the best background music for dinner - and have the switch to Dance music perfectly at the appropriate time.
7. A DJ keeps your guests happy - they read the crowd, and will pick the songs to keep them having a good time.
8. A DJ will also serve as Day Of Event Coordinator - keep you on track of time and make sure all know that you are cutting the cake, Having your First dance etc ..
(if your DJ does not offer that - find one who does)

In short - a Professional DJ is well worth the money - they not only provide the music, but they work tirelessly in keeping your guests happy, the evening flowing, allowing you to relax and enjoy your special day.

Bottom line is - No one ever says they had a blast at a Wedding because the flowers were beautiful, the photographer took many pictures, or even the the food was good .... it is the DJ that makes it fun.

Wedding Band or Wedding DJ? Which is a better choice?

As a DJ we often hear from Brides saying "We are trying to decide between having a band at the wedding or a DJ" Outside of the fact both provide music, there is a vast difference in the two.
When planning a wedding you are faced with alot of decisions, and one of the most important ones being entertainment. Bands do offer a cool 'live music' effect, but there are several reasons why a DJ would be a stronger choice.
With the exception of a few strictly "Wedding Bands" - DJs not only bring the music, but so much more to the table.

DJs offer:

Lighting - we offer both dance floor lighting and Up Lighting to set the mood and enhance the setting.

Music - Bands are limited by what they know... and often have their own 'style' of doing each song. A DJ travels with a vast library of music, allowing a more expansive selection across every genre, allowing your guests freedom in requesting songs as well as you having freedom to have - for example - Jazz or classical at Dinner and great dance songs for the reception. Also, the songs are the originals - done by the artist the way you and your guests know them to be.

MC - Many bands (and some DJs) can be weak at MCing a wedding and keeping the evening flowing smoothly. A good wedding DJ offers Full Mcing and "Day Of Coordination" of the evening, from Grand Intro to Final Dance. They will keep up with your timeline and while being flexible, will make sure all the Highlights of your Wedding are covered.

Ceremony Music - If you want your choice of entertainment to cover the ceremony as well, a DJ is the Stronger choice. They again, offer a wider range of songs and a good Wedding DJ is a true asset during the Ceremony. With helping co-ordinating the Bridal Party for the walk down the Aisle, and offering Lapel Microphone for your officiant , we bring more to the table than most.

Cost - Yes, even DJs can be expensive, but unless you are just hiring in one of your local bands, a Professional Wedding Band will tend to be a lot more than a Professional Wedding DJ.

We have a number of packages to fit any budget while not sacrificing quality and allowing you to have true professional entertainment for your big day. Please feel free to visit our section on our packages : http://www.2wolves.com/affordable-dj-packages

Again - this is one of the most important factors of a great wedding - we want you to be confident that you have the one best suited for you. Be to compare what a Band versus a DJ brings to the table and make the best selection for your needs.

How To Select The Best Music For Your Wedding

Music is a staple of any wedding or party. It sets the mood via beat, melody and lyrics. Choosing the right songs can make or break the whole event. Focusing on Weddings, lets see how the music can enhance the day.

Ceremony - The guests are arriving and the DJ is playing some pre ceremony selections. The setting is a beautiful country barn setting, fields in the background. What style of music would you expect to hear? Many of you probably are thinking Country, which would be the obvious choice. But don't rule out other styles. Instrumentals versions of soft love songs would also fit well, along with classical pieces, especially if you are walking down the aisle to something classical/traditional or a soft Pop song. You want the Pre Ceremony music to complete your setting.

Cocktail/Dinner Music - Like Pre Ceremony music, it is something to be played softly in the background - not to interfere with conversation. Can be a grouping of easy listening songs or something more upbeat. But you want the guests to enjoy their meal and converse - so saving the heavier dance tunes for the dancing hours is recommended.
Cocktail/Dinner hour is the one part of the day your older guests will be there for, so it is also recommended to take them into consideration when selecting the music.

Your "Special" Songs - The First dance, Father and bride dance, Mother and groom dance. All should have special meaning to you. Traditionally the song is something slow and romantic, with lyrics that express the love and emotions the pair dancing have for one another.

Granted, you and your spouse may have a private special meaning of a song, lets say for example - "I Love The Way You Lie" - but your guests may not 'get it'.
Now, say the Groom and Mom can really tear up the dance floor to a Jive or Cha Cha. Should they? Sure! Why not! Same goes for the happy couple. Making it fun can be a reflection of your love.

General Dance Music - When selecting your music for your dancing hours - remember your guests. You want everyone to have fun right? So a wide variety of songs is highly recommended. You know that your Aunt Mary and Uncle Joe love to waltz? Consider adding "Could I Have This Dance?" (Ann Murray) - Mom and Dad love to Two Step? - "Forever and Ever, Amen (Randy Travis) etc. You want to keep the dancing going - so be sure many of the songs are upbeat, fun and sprinkle in some of the wonderful romantic slow songs (like Wonderful Tonight) that even Grandpa will want to dance to. The main thing is to remember - ask yourself - can people dance to it? And don't forget the fun line dances - The Cha Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle, even the YMCA can be fun for all ages.

There are some songs that maybe not so much good 'dance songs' - but more along the lines of 'sing along songs' - Living on a Prayer, Wagon Wheel, Don't Stop Believin, Sweet Home Alabama to name a few - that everyone enjoys singing along to while dancing. Always a fun time.

Two main things to guarantee a wedding to remember - Allow guests to request some songs and choose a Good DJ that will not only help you with your music - but will screen the guests requests for any song that may not 'fit' your reception . You don't want Rap at a country wedding nor do you want songs with F-Bombs around the older guests and or children.

Don't overwork yourself trying to come up with a ton of tunes. A good DJ can take a few selections from you and put together a night filled with great music that truly reflects you and your wedding.

After all ... the music is an very important part - The songs when heard again will bring back memories of your special day for both you and your guests. So choose your DJ wisely.

What you are paying for when you hire a DJ

So many people think DJs are over paid. They think the only work involved is the pushing of buttons and playing music for four hours. That, my friends, is the easy part of the job. There is so much more that goes into every Wedding or party. So, what are you actually paying for when you hire a DJ?

First - The Basics
1. Professional Grade Equipment
The Basics would be - Laptops - Speaker System - Controller/ Mixer -Lighting - Microphones - Stands - Cables -and a backup system if needed.

and:

2. Music
A vast library of music is needed if you want everyone from your Great Aunt down to your little cousins to have a good time. Most DJs have well over 10,000 songs with them. And no - the music is not "free" - we buy every song. Even at $1.29 a download - it adds up.

Now for the things you may not realize that is in the "package"

3. MC for your event
Who is it that introduces you at your Grand Entrance?, Announces the cake cutting?,the first dance? - Yep - your DJ. The DJ is often the one keeping the evening flowing smoothly.

4. Keeping the guests happy
If people don't have a good time at your party, the DJ is the one that often gets blamed. No one ever says - the wedding wasn't fun because the flowers sucked. The DJ needs to have the ability to 'read the crowd' , and know what song is going to get people dancing.

Now for the things you don't think about at all:

5. Consulting with the Client:
whether it is email, phone, or face to face meeting, the time spent discussing what you want your wedding or party to be like, what music you want, don't want etc.

6. Preparing
Hours are spent taking your list of songs and arranging them in a playlist. Then count in searching for and buying that 'special song' we may have already 15 versions of, but not the version you really want. Then judging from your selections, adding in more songs that will fit in and allow for enough music to fill the entire evening. In addition to preparing a separate set for Cocktail or Dinner.

Now add in:

7. Before and after - the day of your party:
Loading up all the equipment, travel time, unloading, set up time, breakdown time, drive home, unloading.

8. Knowing the Music:
Knowing "Rollin' on the River" is really "Proud Mary" , "Time Of Your Life" may mean Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) by Green Day or (I've Had) The Time of My Life by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes (Dirty Dancing) or "The Time (The Dirty Bit)" by Black Eyed Peas. Not to mention the ones that are requested by people actually trying to hum a few bars of the song.

Granted some DJ services charge an outrageous fee, others charge next to nothing. It is up to you to find out just what you will be getting for your money.

Your choice of DJ is one of your most important things for a successful wedding or party.
Be sure to find the one that will help you make your event exactly the way you envision it to be.

Allowing Guests to Request Music Without Worry - Let The DJ Handle It

At any party, be it a wedding reception, prom, birthday or company event, your main concern is for everyone to have a good time. When it comes to the music, one way is to allow the DJ to take requests.

But, is that always a good idea?

Lets see.....
1. If you allow requests - you will not have to worry about selecting many songs, nor will you have to worry about the DJ playing some obscure dub-step version of something you never heard of.
BUT - your guests just may request a strange song you never heard of.

2. If you allow requests - there is a chance your guests will ask for songs you totally forgot about and love.
BUT - they may ask for songs you totally hate.

3. If you allow requests- you friends may request songs that bring back some great memories
BUT - they may be memories you don't want.

4. If you allow requests - it insures everyone gets a chance to hear their favorite song
BUT - their favorite song maybe too vulgar, a break-up song (Big no-no at weddings), or something no one can dance to.

How can you allow Requests and avoid such issues?

1. Start with a Must Play List - submit a list of at least 10 - 20 songs to your DJ that he/she Must Play.
2. Add in another 10-20 songs that you would like to hear if possible.
3. Go over with your DJ what you envision the event to be like. Fun, with alot of fast songs,..... romantic, with mostly slower songs, .... or a nice balanced mix ( recommended ) Be sure to let your DJ know if you like Country , Pop, Hip Hop, etc
4. Have a Do Not Play List - If you will gag if you hear Bieber's "Baby, Baby" or the "Chicken Dance" ... be sure to add to this list.
5. Ask you DJ how they handle requests. Do they have 'clean' versions of the songs? How do they handle those 'non dance-able' song requests? Request from children? etc
6. Set an age limit - Kids can take over a wedding or family gathering with requests. Setting an age limit can help prevent that - or a limit to number of requests.

One way to keep requests to a minimum is to keep in mind your guests when selecting songs. Include songs you know Grandma will love as well as the younger crowd.
We have a list of tips on How to Select Music here : Tips on Choosing Music for Wedding Reception
Good tips for any event.

A good DJ can help you find the right balance of music you want to hear and requests from your guests. Be sure to discuss requests and how they handle them before hiring.

How To Find Great Wedding Vendors That Will Not Break Your Budget

Proof the perfect wedding does
not have to cost a fortune.

Weddings can be one of the most stressful events to plan in your lifetime. Finding the perfect Venue, Caterer, Entertainment, dress, flowers, photographer, etc can be overwhelming. There are many wedding sites online one can go to and see hundreds of wedding vendors in you area, and these can be a good start.

Let's say you visit one of these sites. You type in your information and voila! up pops a list of vendors. Which one to choose? Of course the one on the top with the big display must be the best right? - Not necessarily They have the big ad and the top spot because they paid dearly for it, upwards to $500 per month. One thing for sure, is that cost for the ad is factored into their pricing.

Now, scroll down the list. You see the ones on the bottom - no fancy ad - just a small spot, mostly text. They must be not as good as the big boys on top, right? Not true. Many are excellent vendors, they just choose not to pay the absorbent fees - which can mean a big difference in cost to you.

I recently had one of these sites sales person tell me if I paid for advertising on their site that like their other vendors that pay for the top spots, I would reach "High End Brides" and could charge more for my services. And that "It only makes the Bride feel more special being able to say I booked a DJ for $xxx and I found her on ( insert name of wedding site).com! ( Bragging Rights!)" My response is that ALL brides in our book are special - and our goal is to make the music perfect so all of our brides can brag about their wedding.

The same thing on Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc. Say you type in Wedding DJ and your city. The top results will be ads - often from brokers that have DJs in your area. They are a good place to start, but remember, they are sending you a DJ from your area, so wouldn't it be great to deal directly with that DJ and eliminate the 'middle man' ? The rest, especially the first page on a search, will be a mix of DJ companies in your area and links to more Wedding sites like mentioned above. Look for the listings that are obviously the actual DJ ( or other vendor) site.

Now there is Thumbtack.com that do not allow vendors to pay for their ads. They rank them according to reviews, completeness of profiles etc. They get their revenue from the vendors via a small fee the vendors pay for submitting each quote. Here you know the vendor is interested in providing you their service and is available on your date. Other sites that brag "Get quotes from vendors here!" often charge a huge monthly or yearly fee to vendors to be on the list, again driving up their cost.

Once you done some searching, be sure to contact several vendors and have a list of questions you will want to ask written down beforehand.
Questions like:
What do you change and do you have any special packages for weddings?
What sets you apart from other DJs - photographers - etc?
Will you be the one actually performing the work?
Do you charge extra for travel, set up time etc?
How long have you been in your line of work?
Are you insured?
For DJs - How is the music determined? Can I select the songs?
And any other questions you may have.

Note not just what they say but HOW they say it. Are they passionate about their work? Are they too pushy - pushing their big package over the smaller one? Do they spend time answering all your questions? And most important - is this the person you feel is going to do things the way you want them done? Are you comfortable with them?

Your wedding is one of the biggest events in your life and needs to be done in a way that reflects you and your fiancee Their are many good vendors out there and with a little shopping around you will find the ones that are perfect for you.

Songs to make Cake Cutting Sweeter

JD and Amanda Stanley enjoying their cake

One of the time honored traditions of weddings is the Cake Cutting. It is the first "task" they do together as husband and wife - symbolizing they commitment to always help each other.
Afterwards, they feed each other a piece of the cake - symbolic of the mutual commitment to provide for one another.

This tradition can be a sentimental moment or a fun one. Surely all of us have witnessed mini 'Cake fights' where he couple ends up wearing more of the cake than eating it. The song played should be a reflection of the mood the couple wants to convey and of the couple themselves.

Here is a few top choices - some romantic - some more up beat and fun:

Hit Me With Your Best Shot - Pat Benetar
Smile - Uncle Kracker
Sugar Sugar - Archies
Pour Some Sugar On Me - Def Leppard
How Sweet It Is - James Taylor
Lucky - Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat
At Last - Etta James (Beyonce does this well also)
Lost In The Moment - Big and Rich
Love Story - Taylor Swift
That's Amore - Dean Martin
I Can't Help Myself - Four Tops (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)
All you Need Is Love - Beatles

Some couples choose to have a Grooms Cake also. You can cut this as well, or have the staff do it. If you do cut it, the DJ can continue playing the 'Cake Cutting' Song you selected, or you can select one to be reflexive of the Grooms style. One Idea, is if it is his college Team colors and theme, have the school's "Fight Song" played.

If you chose to do Cupcakes (which is becoming wildly popular) Simply cut one of them, or have a small cake for the ceremony.

Be sure to have your DJ announce the cake cutting and have the photographer ready. And be prepared to wear some icing .

If there has been a unique Cake Cutting Song you had or hear at a wedding - let us know!

Tips on Choosing Music for Wedding Reception

Get your Reception Dancing!

Choosing the music for your reception can be a daunting task. You know what songs you like, but what about your guests? Yes, the day should be a reflection of you and your beloved life together, but if you both love hip-hop and invite Grandma, she probably will not be up shaking it on the dance-floor. Not to mention coming up with music to fill an entire evening alone can be a chore. But it need not be overwhelming. Here are some basic tips when it comes to the music.

You don't need four plus hours of music - at least, you don't have to select it all yourself. A good DJ can fill in with appropriate selections based on what few you select.
Think of your Guests - Include songs your parents and other older guests would like. Add some fun songs for the kids. Toss in songs you and your friends always crank up when you hear them played on the radio.
Mix it up - Do a fairly good mix of genres. Not into country? - maybe some of the newer crossover hits.
Avoid Rap - So you two love rap. Still I recommend avoiding. Rap as a genre - for the most part - does not provide for good dancing. And the lyrics of many rap songs are found to be offensive to some people.
Pump It Up - Yes, this is the most romantic day of your lives. And you want the wonderful slow dances. But too many of them and the guests will get restless. Be sure to add some great club dance tunes so they can shake it.
Think Dance - You have a song you totally love - you know all the words and sing along every time you hear it. But Can you dance to it? Unless you are doing Karaoke, have DJ play those type of songs during Dinner/Cocktail time.
Watch The Language - Be sure to insist on all songs being the radio edited version. If there is not one available, then you really dont need that song at your wedding.
Include the Line Dances - You know, The Cha Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle, Electric Slide. Even the YMCA can be fun. Don't know them? Check out You Tube - they have instructional videos.
Allow Requests - Allow your DJ to play requests from your guests. If your DJ cannot play requests, find another one who can.
Listen to the Radio - Keep a notepad handy and write down the title and artist to songs you hear that you would love to play at your wedding.
Add some Meaningful Songs - Songs that remind you of milestones. First Date, First Kiss, when he proposed, etc.
ASK FOR HELP - Ask your parents, bridal party, friends, cousins, etc for some good songs. And most of all - Ask your DJ.

What suggestions do you have for great reception songs? What songs do you cringe at when you hear it played at a wedding?

Father and Bride - Mother and Groom Dances Stir emotions

Yes, The First dance by the newly married couple is an emotional part of any wedding reception. But nothing brings on the tears as much as the Father - Daughter and Mother - Son Dances. Making sure this part of the reception goes smoothly and choosing the 'perfect' song for these dances can be a daunting task.

These Dances can be orchestrated many ways. If you want to be slightly different than the standard some suggestions are:

Half way through song - have DJ invite other Father/Daughters - Mother and Sons to join you on floor
If Mother or Father is no longer with you - have dance with sibling, grandparent, Step parent, or you new in law ( father - in -law or mother - in - law) or anyone that played a significant role in your life.
use only one song for both - you can even start off with Father and Daughter then have DJ invite Groom and Mother to join you

Father - Daughter Dances

Wedding Grand Entrance - songs to make it special

Dan and Robyn Butler

"INTRODUCING MR and MRS ..... "

Yay! The wedding is over, you have said your "I Do's" and it is time for the party. Receptions are the fun part where you can kick off your shoes and enjoy the first moments of your married life, celebrating with your family and friends. Most like to enter the room to a bit of fanfare, making The Grand Entrance as it is called. But how? and to what song?

We have done many different Grand Entrances, from a trumpet fanfare for a bride and groom who waved to the crowd from a balcony - Royalty style, to a couple who bopped into their candy themed reception to the song "I Love Candy". The entrance can and should be a reflection of the couples likes and personalities.

To give you some ideas, here is a list of some of the more popular songs we have used:

Got to Get You Into My Life Earth, Wind & Fire
Enter Sandman Metallica
This Will Be (An Ever Lasting Love) Natalie Cole
Power Of Love Huey Lewis
You're my first, My last, My Everything Barry White
Signed,Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours Stevie Wonder
I Wanna Grow Old With You Adam Sandler
The Best is Yet to Come Michael Buble

Only Time Enya
DJ's Got Us Fallin In Love Usher
