Real Orlando Wedding Vendors by Orlando Wedding DJ Our DJ Rocks

The communication between your DJ and your other vendors is crucial in the success of your wedding, especially when it comes to your Wedding Planner. Your planner is the one who helps put together your ideas and lays out exactly how you want to the night to flow and your DJ is the one who helps execute the time line of events and most importantly keeping the evening on schedule.

Allow me to present the talented Orlando wedding planner, Tamuel Cowart with RW Events. I asked Tamuel to give us her wedding planner point of view on the importance of the DJ & Wedding Planner, Here’s what she had to say:

The most important factor in working with a DJ is teamwork. A good DJ controls the flow of the reception so it is important for them to know who the major players are such as the photographer, videographer, banquet captain, and planner. Announcements should be planned accordingly and good team work assures that all major parties are in the reception room prior to toasts, first dances, etc.

The relationship of the planner and DJ is very important since both are passed the ball throughout the evening to ensure a smooth transition of events as well as a happy client. Miscommunication can lead to unnecessary hiccups which is why I encourage my clients to work with professional “wedding” DJ’s!!!

My favorite of her qualities: Honesty, Personality and Persistance.

Our DJ Rocks is currently assisting Tamuel of RW Events in producing The Bridal Ball, a unique bridal event coming to Lake Mary in September 2010. You will have the opportunity to experience fun, food, and amazing decor while taking a break from the traditional bridal show.

Let me introduce you to Rev. Glynn Ferguson with Sensational Ceremonies. Everyone say "Hi Rev. Glynn!"

I recently asked Rev. Glynn Ferguson with Sensational Ceremonies to tell us his opinion on the importance of the DJ & Officiant relationship, as well as what the DJ/MC can do to make his job easier and what he has experienced in the past that he does not like. Here’s what he had to say:

DJs can look for visual cues from the officiant as to when the music needs to be tapered off...like when the bride comes down the aisle. They also play a vital role in the ceremony when there is a portion of the ceremony that has no speaking. Music is always a great filler for candles being lit, sand or wine being poured, or rings being passed.

As far as dislikes, if I can't hear myself speak because the volume is too high or there is too much echo it makes pronouncing difficult names and words with hard "s" and "z" almost impossible. I once did a wedding at Highland Manor and the speakers we so far removed from the ceremony site, that there was a few seconds of delay. I would speak a word and a few seconds later it would come back to me...confusing!!!

My favorite of his qualities: Professionalism and Charismatic.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Rev. Glynn Ferguson on numerous occasions. We most recently worked at The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne in Downtown Orlando. And we are currently helping with The Bridal Ball event coming up in Lake Mary.
