Featured in ... Junebug Weddings, The Knot, Green Wedding Shoes, Ruffled Blog, and Exquisite WeddingsIn this episode, Jamie, Heather, and Drew discuss: Having a leader to run and host the wedding. Finding a great DJ that builds the proper energy in the crowd. The role of the wedding party, getting out on the dance floor. Finding a DJ that matches the vibe of the couple and can bring those vibes onto the dance floor. Key Takeaways: Communication prior to the wedding is key. When does the dance party need to begin? What flexibility is there? Don’t stop the energy for wedding events and then bring people back out trying to build the energy back up. Be sure your DJ specializes in weddings and how they function. Work with your DJ to pick the right music for the mood of your event. Make the wedding timeline specific to what you want to do. "Anything you want or don’t want at your wedding, it’s up to you." — Drew Peters
