MUSIC SELECTION is a vital part of your reception. You have in your mind the type of music you would like to hear at your reception so please ensure it is played. Gone are the days when the DJ used to just turn up and play music he or she liked. Now you can have much more influence regarding music choices and policy. Ensure you tell your DJ what types of music you would like and also what you do not want to hear. If you want line dances or the YMCA tell the DJ and if you do not want the CHICKEN dance we need to know too as it does form your music policy we create. Consider how long you would listen to a Rap radio station if you did not like it or how long would you tune in to the radio station playing country if its not your preference. An experienced DJ will read your crowd and assess age ranges and groups and the DJ will enter into full music consultation with you before the reception. Professional DJs will,
Encourage you to choose music before your reception
Create an music policy and play list with you
Help you with suggestions and ideas for songs and dances

Will not play the music too quiet or too loud
