    What local DJ would you have playing your wedding?

    Okay, you have a wedding reception with your whole family there, along with a bunch of your friends from inside and outside the scene. You can't have an all edm night, obviously.

    What local DJ would you pick to play?

    [For the purposes of this, pretend that you ruled out The Chicken Dance and all the other silly wedding-dj shit that everyone hates. The DJ doesn't have to play crap, but he also has to play a wide-variety and can't play very much music that will scare grandma.]

    For the DJs:

    Pretend you got this gig, what kind of stuff are you going to play?

    well... I DJ'ed Rob's wedding... and I DJ'ed a friend of a friend's wedding last year in Florida...

    during dinner: jazz and trip hop... everything from Stacey Kent and Frank Sinatra to Mandalay and Hooverphonic

    during the dance time... heavy on the 80s... a little recognizable house... some abba and shit liek that...

    Just pop in "Now thats what I call Music" or any other of those cheesy tophits compilations and press play. Dont think anybody at the wedding will be impressed by beatmatching, and smooth mixing skills :)

    I recommend Josh and Devin from Exit Enterprises. They can play for the family, and play for the house heads and edmers also.

    I'm sure Section 8 could handle it well too.

    Just a word of advice: when you go hunting for a wedding DJ, make sure they handle themselves as a professional, and they have done weddings in the past for clients. You don't want the 'club dj' type playing at your wedding. You want a club dj who also can be and act as a wedding dj would.

    section 8. at least house music is very friendly towards the non-edm fans.

    Have you seen us do Section 8 vs Exit?



    it is the ultimate in hotness.

    We did it on 5 turntables and 2 mixers last weekend for the park party.

    super hot.

    I've seen you guys work together a zillion times. I know how ya'll dew!

    I've had Josh and Devin handle my wedding clients in the past.

    I'm sure the 4 of you and 5 decks would turn a wedding into a $10,000 performace!

    Make sure you make my check out for 73 cents to Baltimore Stormin' Brainz
