DJ Meeting

Forgive me for being a few days behind on my update. I am sure you will live ;-)

Saturday Mike and I met with our potential DJ at the Starbucks in Oakwood - a place the DJ suggested which was awesome considering we live right around the block from there. His name is Dan Edwards - you may recognize him from the morning news on channel 2. He also has his own DJ business in which he does mostly receptions and sometimes other events.

Right away we were impressed with his resume - he has been in the radio and TV business for 30 years. He is very organized and easy going and has great suggestions for reception possibilities. And we had to give him an upper hand when we found out he lives just a few streets over from us :)

I wouldn't be able to tell you if he is priced right or not - I didnt even interview anyone else to see what else is out there and how much they charge. I just knew that the DJ is an integral part of the reception, and I want someone who will entertain and keep the party going. I went to a wedding a few years ago where Dan was the DJ and thought he was excellent. The person who hired him told me that hiring Dan was the best decision they could have made for their reception. I am sold!

So that's one more thing crossed off our list of things to do for the wedding. Feels nice to have the ball rolling. The next thing on my list? Photographer!!!
