Non-Traditional Wedding DJs In My Area

  |   Press Releases

Non-Traditional Wedding DJs In My Area:  What’s the alternative to a standard wedding DJ that plays the same 200 songs at every wedding?  How do you find someone with more refined musical taste…How do you find a DJ who can please a bunch of musicians, music snobs, former DJ’s, and not subject you to any “woooo!” or “hands in the air!” nonsense?  

We’ve all been to a boring wedding where every time the DJ talks (and they talk WAY TOO MUCH!) you just cringe. It’s not all about them but they don’t know it and steal the show from the wedding couple. Maybe it’s their overuse of line dances or those repetitive phrases like “Ladies and Gentlemen, may I direct your attention to…” Can you guess what song they are going to play next before they press play because it’s the same songs you have heard at all 6 of the weddings you’ve attended this year? Maybe it’s the glittery bow tie and vest or the 1980’s style tuxedo they are wearing. Whatever it is – you know that you want something different at your wedding reception.

Non-Traditional Wedding DJs – Passionate About Music

Can you find a non-traditional Dj that is passionate about collecting music, and believes you don’t need to resort to cheesy line-dances or gimmicks to keep your guests on their feet, and keep the dance floor packed? 

Is there such a thing as delivering you the Holy Grail of mobile DJ experience: intergenerational inclusivity, subdued professionalism, and lovingly curated sets of music.  Can you find a dynamic wedding DJ who is in tune with your unique needs, who are ready to rock your wedding in a style that transcends the typical wedding DJ mold and reputation?

He geared the music selections accordingly, and was able to adapt during the event, as specific requests were made regarding particular songs, timing, and styles. Thanks for helping to make our wedding such a memorable event!

Wedding Budget Constraints And Your Entertainment Options

The main reason so many weddings are similar is due to budget constraints.  Many wedding couples would rather have more flowers, passed hors d’oeuvres or that limo ride instead of memorable entertainment. This has made the wedding DJ become the norm.  To each their own, but I personally don’t remember a single hors d’oeuvres from my own wedding.  I do remember being on the dance floor and having the best night of my life.  What do you remember from the last time you attended a wedding?  


He executed our unique wedding party script perfectly and got everyone going on the dance floor! We wish we could have had the music playing all night. He was definitely a big part of our perfect wedding day.

What Do You Remember From The Last Wedding You Attended As A Guest?

I always say there are three things you remember after attending a wedding.  1.  You remember the vision of the couple dressed up and looking so in love with each other.   2.  You remember if the food was GOOD or BAD – but rarely remember what you actually ate.  3.  You remember if you had a great time, were entertained and danced the entire night or if you were bored and left early.  I’d always recommend prioritizing the budget based on where the memories are made as opposed to the smaller details.

There are many reasons why today’s couples spend more on their wedding compared to the initial wedding budget that they put together. 54% of couples increase their budget during planning, allocating funds to wedding items they fell in love with along the way. This is especially true when the initial wedding budget is set lower than reality. Many couples look back at spending more than average for vendors and they realize afterward that it was worth every penny! After all, you get what you pay for. If you look at it from the aspect of the wedding vendor – why would you charge less than average or average if you were worth more?

You will quickly find that there are luxury wedding vendors and there are cheesy wedding DJs. The rate that they charge will invariably reflect the quality level of service that you should expect from them.

He met with us several times and suggested ideas that we wouldn’t have thought of. As a surprise he mailed us a thumb drive with the audio from our ceremony, the prayer from my wife’s grandfather and the speeches of the best man/Maid of Honor. He kept the night rolling and everyone on the dance floor. I would highly recommend him for any future events.

Whether You Are Into Hip-Hop Booty Shakers, Indie Rock or EDM – The Right Non-Traditional Wedding DJ For You

I believe that a thoughtful mix of pop favorites, hip-hop booty-shakers, Motown classics and timeless standards are a fun and self-respecting alternative to those embarrassing and played-out dance floor wedding cliché songs that none of us want to hear again.

When you have a diverse crowd with diverse tastes, you need entertainment that is flexible, dynamic and creative. A non-traditional wedding DJ will take everything that is boring and predictable about traditional events and reinvent it with years of experience. They will guide you every step of the way through the planning process for your wedding.

The key to being a non-traditional wedding DJs simply means that they are open-minded, adaptable and provide highly personalized and responsive service.  Get creative with your day and creative with a non-traditional wedding vendor.  If they embrace your ideas, run with it and make your wedding unforgettable!

BEST DJ EVER. People dancing the entire time, which is what we wanted. We had multiple people ask who the DJ was the following day. He is super professional, but also laid back and just so nice! We also did the photo booth which was AMAZING. People also used it the entire night as well. Plus the uplighting made the vibe!! Our wedding was so perfect and a HUGE reason was because Rob was our DJ!!! Can’t recommend enough!!!

Don’t Forget The Lighting

Whether you want the warm glow of bistro string lights or a crystal chandelier at your tented or barn wedding – we have the right lighting to suit your style.

Want some color? Ask us about our LED uplighting, tent texture pattern lighting, or hanging disco ball installations. Either way, lighting makes your wedding photos so much more interesting and add excitement and energy to your decor.

We even have high energy club style lighting for late at night when you are really ready to rip up the dance floor.
