Stop Right Now....Thank you very much!

STOP HIRING CHEAP DJs

There, I said it.  I went there.  The price issue.  Yes, I’ve touched on this before, but it is always a relevant point.

I was in attendance at a wedding event this weekend at a luxury venue where weddings cost upwards of £25,000. A wonderful cake maker was exhibiting, and one of her cakes was on display at £500. Now, I’m not criticising the cake, and I’m sure it is worth the money, but consider the difference between a wedding cake and a wedding DJ.

A good wedding cake will look good, be a centrepiece and taste good – although in reality very few people ever eat it, and the cutting is over quite quickly

A good wedding DJ should also look good, be a focal point during key parts of the day and make sure the party is good

When you compare the two side by side, surely the DJ (who will be part of your wedding for in excess of 5 hours) offers more value – so why would you pay twice as much for your wedding cake as for your DJ?

There is a saying in DJ circles “nobody goes home whistling the flowers” – people mostly remember and talk about the food at the wedding breakfast and the party (and of course the beautiful bride!)

Now, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t have a beautiful wedding cake, you should be making sure that your day is perfect in every detail, and is the day that you dream of, but to scrimp on one of the biggest parts of the day just because you can find a cheap DJ may seem like a short term gain but in the long run it may be one of the biggest regrets when you look back.

You wouldn’t put your faith in a cheap cake, why put your faith in a cheap DJ?
