Aloha,
Recently, I was asked to DJ and MC a reception. I usually don't MC, but I will make an exception here and there and I may go back to it in the future. For the most part however, I am pretty busy with the planning and performance side of what I do.
Anyhow, we did several custom voice recordings and a special dedication from the daughter to her father that we played during their Unity Dance. It was a really nice reception; elegant and traditional with alot of emotion. Anyhow, while the bride and groom were giving their thank yous, the 4 year old daughter pulled me to the side and asked me to "call her up". She wanted to say something... imagine the surprise on her mother's face when I introduced her daughter and helped her stand on her chair facing mommy and daddy. From there, I handed her a microphone and she stood there and told everyone how much she loved her mommy and daddy and congratulations on getting married. It was a really special and unique moment that had everyone in tears and smiles.
Because I had taken the time to get to know their daughter, she was comfortable with approaching me and allowing me to hold her hand as she was introduced. She hugged me at the end of the night and thanked me for helping her mommy and daddy.
DJ's do more than just play music. When you sit down with your DJ, ask them how they're going to make your special day memorable and unique for you.
Until next time, Aloha!
