” So at this point I’ve looked at dozens of DJs on google, received quotes from about 3, and have visited a handful. I have a really specific feel I’m going for that is proving hard to find in Connecticut.
Traditional weddings are not my style. I understand that my parents are hoping that I will have every single tradition from a cheesy money dance to the garter grab but, I’m just not comfortable. Every DJ I talk to tries to turn my wedding into a techno festival.
I’m really at my wits end and honestly I want to give up completely. I have a couple of djs that I’m considering but honestly I just feel like I would be settling and I can’t fathom spending so much money on a dj that I’m feel like I’m just settling for… “
Wow Sharon! That’s quite an experience. And as I might add, probably the experience for many brides just like you. Worry not, you are not alone. We are at a crossroads right now in the wedding industry. Our baby boomer parents and grandparents want to stick to what was hip back in 1979 when they got married and you just want to push the envelope and do your own thing. It’s no secret, people and change are a difficult thing. There are plenty of trend setting people out there that would love to help your ideas come to life.
You ABSOLUTELY should not settle on your wedding dj. With so many choices out there for wedding entertainment, it’s understandable that making the choice could be overwhelming. But choosing a DJ is more than just price shopping and music. It’s feeling a good connection with the person who is going to be handling your entertainment and master of ceremonies duties from start to finish. Certain things can put you off. For instance, do they have a good voice for announcements? Do you feel at ease talking to them? Do you feel that they are a good listener? These are just a few examples of things that you might be thinking when you are speaking face to face with your wedding DJ.
And because there is such a diverse selection of wedding djs in ct, you have your pick of the litter on who would be the best option. Hang in there Sharon, we’re here to help you. Be sure to tell your dj on your next interview your experience with shopping for DJs. Explain to them your concerns. And if they are a good listener, they will be able to point you in the right direction. Best of luck to you and congratulations!!!
