Wedding DJ's, MC's, Entertainment Hire Melbourne

As an entertainment company, we believe your wedding entertainment is the most important and remembered aspect of your wedding day. We believe that the most memorable weddings are those where the guests have been engaged and entertained throughout the day. We also believe that as wedding hosts, there is an obligation to give your guests an amazing experience.

LET ME EXPLAIN WHY! 

Firstly, have you been a guest at weddings that has been, to be blunt, boring. Undoubtedly those wedding couples have spent a considerable sum of hard-earned money on arrangements for the day, including celebrant (or religious minister) reception venue hire (including food and drinks) flowers, photographer, videographer, DJ, the wedding dress, bridesmaids’ outfits, bridegroom, groomsman’s suits, the rings and so on… you might say this should be sufficient. However when your family and friends are standing around looking bored, checking their phones, discussing how early they can make an exit, surely this is not how you want your wedding to go down. Would it not be better if your guests were totally engaged in the day, enjoying themselves throughout and as such building a wedding day vibe that you and your guests will remember and be talking about for years to come?

My second point relates to the fact that attending a wedding these days can be quite a big “ask” in terms of cost and time for many of your guests. This is even more true for guests attending a destination wedding.  Your guests will be taking time out of work, paying for flights and accommodation, and maybe also paying to attend hen and bucks’ nights or weekends, buy a wedding gift,  buy a new dress or suit, not to mention outfits for the kids (if they have been invited). All of this can amount to a significant sum.  For many guests it can also require a great deal of logistical planning to be away from home, work and/or family and to get themselves to your wedding destination.

Most of your guests will do all of this gladly, of course. In reality, it’s what we have all come to expect and there is a general acceptance that attendance at a wedding can be costly and something of an undertaking.  However, we believe, that as wedding hosts, it is your responsibility to acknowledge this commitment by your guests to your special day and repay it in kind with generous hospitality.  But not only should this include food and drink, but also fantastically fun entertainment.  Make your wedding day a huge party from start to finish and your guests will love every minute.

Wedding entertainment is an important part of your wedding celebration because it sets the tone for the entire event and helps to create a memorable experience for you and your guests.

 Here are a few reasons why entertainment is essential at a wedding:

Weddings are long events, and guests can quickly become bored if there is nothing to keep them engaged. Providing entertainment, whether it be in the form of music, games, or other activities, keeps your guests entertained and happy throughout.

Weddings are a time for friends and family to come together and celebrate with you. Entertainment provides a great opportunity for guests to socialize, bond, and create lasting memories together.

The entertainment you choose can set the tone for your wedding day, whether you want a romantic and intimate atmosphere or a fun and energetic party atmosphere. Choosing the right entertainment can help you create the exact mood you want for your wedding day.

Entertainment can provide a focal point for the reception, giving guests something to look forward to and a reason to stay until the end of the event.

Ultimately, entertainment helps to create a memorable experience for everyone. It’s a chance to do something unique and special that guests will remember long after the wedding day has passed.

Unfortunately, in our experience, many couples will allocate a tiny proportion of their budget to entertainment.  Some won’t allocate anything at all.  In our opinion this is a massive error in judgement.

Of course, you want your wedding venue to look beautiful and this is a very important element for your day, but whatever you have decided to spend on flowers and other styling and decorative items should, in our view, be less than your budget for entertainment.

“The big reveal – that first view of your wedding reception room – is a few seconds of the day for each of your guests, but if you entertain them, this will continue for the entire wedding.

Other Wedding Entertainment Ideas

In addition to wedding DJs and MCs, there are a variety of other entertainment options that can make your wedding day even more special. Here are some unique and fun ideas to consider:

Interactive Games and Activities

If you want to get your guests up and moving, then consider incorporating some interactive games and activities into your wedding reception. You can set up a photo booth or a “make your own cocktail” bar. You can also include lawn games, such as giant Jenga, Connect four, or Croquet, to keep guests entertained during cocktail hour or between dances.

Interactive Food and Drink Stations

Food and drink stations can be a fun and interactive way to keep your guests entertained and well-fed throughout the night. You can set up a donut wall, or create a signature cocktail for your wedding and set up a bar where guests can create their own versions.

A Surprise Performance

If you really want to surprise and delight your guests, then consider incorporating a surprise performance into your wedding reception. You can hire a flash mob to perform during the reception, have a friend or family member perform a song or dance, or even plan a surprise fireworks show at the end of the night.
