Weddings
It's finally happened - you were asked and your answer was "yes!" Now you plan your dream wedding. One of the most important decisions you will make is who to choose for your banquet reception entertainment.
As a bride planning your wedding you are planning the most important wedding you will ever attend in your life and we know you will want to do whatever it takes to make sure things turn out just right - the best way to ensure a successful celebration is to hire a professional DJ company like Dave Shannon Music. We know nothing beats having a professional DJ, mixing all those different music styles together into one great music flow, who's played hundreds of weddings to help make your wedding the great success you've always wanted it to be.
Wedding professionals agree good entertainment is the key to having a successful wedding. If you think about it, the venue and the food could be perfect but if the entertainment is bad it's something you, your family and guests are going to remember. According to Bride Magazine on average only about 5% of your overall budget will be spent on entertainment, but it could be the most important element of your reception. This is your once in a lifetime event so make sure you hire a professional company who is as committed as you are to your wedding's success!
We respect your wedding is a once in a lifetime experience. We know how important it is to secure the services of a DJ, mixing all the different types of music together, who really knows how to keep guests entertained by reading the crowd, keeping the dance floor busy, and makes sure everyone has a great time and a lot of fun. Our wedding reception philosophy has always been: "the bride and groom are the stars" and more importantly: "the bride's the boss!" (Grooms: please take special note.)
When it comes to choosing the right DJ company, and to ensure a pro will help make your dance a great success, it is not the place to save a little money to take a big chance because the price was right but the music or DJ was not. Consumers find most DJ companies are very close in price, usually by a few hundred dollars, unlike photographers whose prices can differ by several thousands of dollars.
In our 25+ years of booking events we have found that most people hire a DJ company based on price or based on quality - it seems the two never meet. In our industry we hear stories of fabulous parties with all the trimmings, saving money on the DJ, or even making the attempt to play the music themselves - (only to realize it's not as easy as it looks and then it's too late), with regrets of not having spent that little extra for a top quality DJ service, adding to the perfection of a critically important night that will, for good or bad reasons, be remembered for a lifetime. (Remember - it's "one night only!")
We also know how critical it is to keep the music at a comfortable level so people can visit, especially at weddings where many guests meet others they haven't met for a long time or have never met before.
Dave Shannon Music will customize your wedding reception to fit your needs: introducing you and your wedding party, your dinner, cake cutting, your first dance, father & daughter/mother & son dance/bridal party dance, tossing of the boquet and garter, late lunch, last call and whatever else you'd like announced.
Dave Shannnon Music will entertain your guests with the best music mix, making your wedding reception a fun time for everyone without taking attention away from you.
We would love to have the opportunity to share your most special day with you and to be there to ensure that your one very special night holds that magic you've always dreamed of!
We would love to be your DJ company of choice.
Thank you for thinking of Dave Shannon Music.
