Tossing the bride’s bouquet – or a part of the bride’s bouquet – is a wedding tradition that dates back to Medieval times. Today, the bouquet toss takes place during the wedding reception when the bride gathers the single female wedding guests and tosses her bouquet to them. It is said that the person who catches the bouquet will be the next to get married. Alternatively in some cases, it’s simply considered good luck.

Below are some song suggestions that you could use for your Bouquet Toss

What is the anniversary dance at a wedding?

Wedding reception traditions are beginning to get a bit dated. How many of your girlfriend’s are fighting to win the bouquet toss or men scrambling for the garter? But there is one traditional reception activity that I am quite partial to: The Anniversary Dance. This is a great way for your wedding DJ to get people on the dance floor as well as celebrate longevity in marriage with usually slow wedding music. The Anniversary Dance works best if you have a lot of guests who have been married for a long time.

How does the anniversary dance work?

Your wedding DJ will invite all married couples to the dance floor to share a dance with the newlyweds, usually with slow wedding music. Once the dance floor is full, your DJ will then politely ask couples (with the exception of the bride & groom) who’ve been married less than 1 year, then 5 years, then 10 years, etc. to please leave the dance floor.

The Bride & Groom will be left dancing with the couple that has been married the longest (usually grandparents). Your DJ will get a round of applause for them and then ask them if they have any advice for you (since they’ve got more experience than anyone else in the room).  

What song should we choose?

You could use any wedding music or songs you might want, but it’s best with a slow song that is enjoyed by all ages of married couples. I put together a Spotify playlist of some of the best options for the anniversary dance at your wedding reception.

If you find something you like don’t forget to write down the name of the song and artist and provide to the DJ.

Hiring a DJ can be a scary thing.  Hopefully we answer your questions in this section titled FAQ or Frequently Asked Questions.  You can also ask us questions, we don’t charge for that.  I know it’s hard to believe but we really just want your event to go as smooth as possible regardless if we are the lucky ones to provide you with our service.

Here are some common questions I get asked and my answers

How long have have I been in business?

I have been DJing in Michigan since 2001

Are weddings my main events or do I play at other events or clubs?

Weddings are the majority of what I perform but I do volunteer my DJ Services for school dances and charities like Relay for Life.

Do I have another event the same day or weekend?

I would never schedule another event on the same day as your event.  I perform no more than one event per day.

How much time does the DJ need to setup and take down?

This depends on the package that has been selected.  If lights are included, it takes a bit more time but on average no more than 2 hours to setup and 1.5 hour to tear down

How long does the DJ play music?

DJ will play as long as you requested with the option to pay for overtime if you decide to want music past the agreed time.

What equipment do I use?

I am what you consider a digital DJ meaning I have all my music on my Macbook Pro with a backup.  Also utilize Bose L1 Series powered speakers on smaller events and Electro Voice speakers for bigger events.  Also have a battery powered EV speaker for thats times you don’t have power.  Not ideal but it works when you have the DJ in a field or even when the ceremony is away from a power source.  Pioneer or Allen & Heath mixer.

Do I have back up plan if my equipment doesn’t work when your reception starts?

Yes being ex-military I always have backup equipment ready to go when needed.

Do I offer other services such as video screens for a slideshow and lighting?

I do not have video screens.  I do, however, have intelligent professional lighting.

What type of equipment does the DJ need the venue to provide?

The only thing the DJ needs from the venue is power (110v and preferably 20amp but 15amp will typically work) and at minimum 2 hours before event to setup.  Any rules (like no tape on floor which DJ’s use grafting tape remove the trip hazard the wires will cause)

How extensive is the DJ music collection?

I currently have over 40,000 digital songs which many are from companies like Promo Only which is a company that provides the music for Radio Stations so its edited and appropriate for all listeners.

What type of music genre do they have?

It’s a big mix of all genre’s

How do I keep my music collection current?

Mainly subscriptions where companies send you monthly the latest and greatest.

Can you provide your own playlist and a “do not” playlist?

Can they accommodate special song requests from guests?

How do they get your guests dancing and excited?

Can they give you a sample demo CD of songs from a previous wedding?

Does the DJ take breaks? If so, what happens during this time?

Can the DJ act as an emcee announcing the wedding party, bouquet toss, first dance and other announcements?

What do they wear?

Do they offer pricing packages?

Is breakdown and set up included in the cost?

What is the charge to play overtime?

What is the total cost and what is required for a deposit?

Do they offer payment plans?

What type of payment can they take – cash, check, credit card?
