Lightshow at a wedding?

"Anonymous said...

Our dj is trying to up sell us on a light show claiming that a dance club like setting will get more people to dance? Is he right or just trying for more money?

Hi Lisa,
If that's absolutely necessary, why is he upselling instead of including it? I have done many successful receptions with and without dance floor lighting. It truly depends on YOUR tastes. Not every party needs it. Lights are simply tools to help move a party, they won't make or break it though. What kind of vibe are you trying to convey?

Paul thank u. We just want to have a good time at our reception and he is insisting on these lights as an answer. He is a little annoying actually.

Lisa,

Sounds like you might want to interview a few more candidates.

What time of day is your reception? Where is it? If there are large windows at the venue, lighting may be a non-issue. Around here, it stays pretty bright outside until almost 9PM come Labor Day.

Thank you Paul. I fear we may have made a bad choice. I do not like upselling. The room is on the 15th floor with windows all around. I now worry that if we don't buy the lights we won't get a good performance.
