DJ or DJ and musician?
As a leading wedding DJ in Essex, it is really important that my clients understand what is best suited for their wedding, knowing whether I am the right fit for their wedding style and theme to make their big wedding day great!
As someone who works alongside amazing and talented musicians, I thought it would be a good idea to put together this piece to help give you some tips on how to make your day suited for you!
I’ll introduce to you the benefits of each entertainment service, whether a live performance, wedding DJ hire or the duality of both, DJ and musician!
Let’s dive in!
Live performances from musicians
Live performances can be a really great way to make a memorable music experience on your wedding day. As someone who works with many talented live performers offering an amazing DJ and musician combo, I know they can add to the surroundings in a very personable way and enhance your wedding day dancing experience.
Where I keep the crowd grooving from backstage, live performers are able to dive into the crowd and add an immersive feel to the entirety.
Live music can be more unique and are better suited to venues that require a sound limiter. Sound limiters are often used to protect neighbouring venues from excessive noise, though this has only happened very few times in my experience, sound limiters can cause the power to be completely cut out of a DJ set, whereas live bands are slightly more flexible to this.
Great (definitely unbiased) reasons to go with a DJ!
As the number 1 go-to wedding DJ in Essex, I offer a night of fantastic entertainment and long-lasting memories with a complete understanding of any requests or music versatility that my clients may want to boost their day as much as possible.
A great reason to go with a DJ is because there is more music variety with seamless transitions, there are very few limitations towards the style and genre of music that is requested, and I can keep the morale high from start to finish, without any dips in energy.
Having a DJ on your big day can be great for really getting the party started! DJs are suitable to have for the entire day of your wedding, playing appropriate songs for each part of the day and transitioning into an atmospheric and memorable evening. The best thing about having a DJ at a wedding is that every wedding crowd is different and the flexibility within DJing allows me to cultivate and correspond a playlist for the most effective atmosphere.
Best of both worlds; DJ and Musician
As a top wedding DJ hire in Essex, I offer the service of duality, combining both a DJ and musician. This can be an amazing experience for a wedding as it reaps the benefits of both services and allows an amazing atmosphere with intense audience engagement. I offer a saxophonist and DJ set and a bongo and DJ set. These amazing people work alongside my set and create amazing sounds and fun experiences for all guests; have a look on my DJ Scott Dewing Instagram page.
When using a DJ and musician, you can create a maximised atmosphere with smooth transitions and zero dips in energy, the dancefloor will be packed from beginning to end. Using this duality can also create more flexibility in theming. I’m able to create a more sensual and romantic atmosphere using, for example, a saxophonist, which can trickle into an energetic and celebratory playlist.
