They introduce the Bridal Party, organise and compere the cake-cutting, then later organise and introduce each person taking part in the speeches, and if any of the speakers want any advice beforehand as to who needs to say what etc etc then our very experienced Melbourne Wedding DJsare more than happy to provide that advice on the spot.Our professional Wedding DJs also introduce the Bridal Dance and then organise who joins in and when , and later in the evening they organise the tossing of both the Bouquet and the Garter, & then organise and run the Farewell Circle.

Wedding DJs to MC ! You are only doing this once, so it's all new to you, whereas we do over 150 Wedding Receptions a year!! We are here to help - and naturally we want it all to be a HUGE success just as much as you do - since our reputation is at stake. Just from a purely business point of view, all our Brides & Grooms have as guests at their Wedding Reception AT LEAST one other couple (more often 2 or even 3 other couples) who are getting married in the next year or so - so we want THEM to be impressed so that we get their booking AS WELL! That can't happen unless we do a great job for YOU. Give us a call and let's have a totally "no obligation" general chat about your Melbourne Wedding Reception DJ requirementsand all the various events that go on and who does what & when etc -as stated above, we do over 150 Wedding Receptions a year, so we've seen HEAPS of times what works well, and sadly some things that don't seem to ever work. We are happy to answer ALL SORTS of questions about EVERYTHING that happens at Wedding Receptions, NOT just about the music side of things.

EXTRA WEDDING SERVICES
WE CAN ALSO PROVIDE OUR DJ & A SECOND SOUND SYSTEM FOR YOUR OUTDOOR CEREMONY MUSIC,
& THEN FOR OUR DJ TO PLAY MUSIC ON OUTSIDE RIGHT THRU YOUR “PRE-DINNER DRINKS” PERIOD.
With many couples having their ceremony “on-site” these days in the gardens/grounds at their Reception Venue, we are now being asked quite often to have our DJ arrive more than 2 hours before the actual Reception starts INSIDE the venue, so that he can play the songs the Bride & Groom have chosen for the various events during their ceremony, as well as to play during the signing of the Registry. Once the Ceremony is finished (most take about 30 minutes), our DJ can THEN play “cruisey” music outside during your 1 or 1.5 hour (it varies from venue to venue) “pre-dinner drinks” period from immediately after the Ceremony right up until the guests are asked to make their way into the main Reception room and find their seats. So in addition to our main disco system which he would have already set up inside the Reception Venue BEFORE the Ceremony, our DJ will then also bring a second smaller system incorporating all the extra equipment shown below:
In the photo above, we have to the left a crate of leads & power-boards (plus a microphone & lead) sitting on top of the second amplifier, then to the right of the leads crate we have a roadcase containing a two drawer dual CD player & a 4 channel DJ sound mixer with 2 microphone inputs. Then we have the second pair of speakers, with each TIMBER speaker cabinet containing a compression driven horn & a 12 inch bass speaker. To the right of the speakers is a collapsible table we set the system up on (which you can see fully set up further down).
NOTE: Our “Ceremony System” amplifier & speakers above cost over $3,000, PLUS those CD players & the DJ sound mixer are over $2,500 worth, so all up this "Ceremony System" has more than $5,500 worth of disco gear, which is up to $3,000 more than the TOTAL amount spent on their MAIN disco system by so MANY other DJ companies who are only supplying $800-1,000 laptops, with $800 plastic speakers & 2 cheap disco lights.
NOTE: Our crate of leads includes a 20 metre extension lead in case the power source is a fair distance from where you want our system set up, plus we can bring extra leads if needed.
Now here’s how this “Ceremony System” looks once it’s all set up. To the top right of the photo you can see the stem of a microphone stand, plus the bottom half of a microphone, with the lead hanging down, so YES, this second system does come with a microphone on a lead, and BOTH the microphone itself and the microphone stand are INCLUDED in the price. Once we set up the table for the CD players and sound mixer to sit on, we then wrap a black cloth around it to keep it all neat by hiding all the leads as well as the amplifier, which is positioned under the table on top of the plastic crate the leads came in. In this photo you can also see a cordless microphone sitting on top of the roadcase containing the CD players and sound mixer, while on top of the right-hand speaker is the cordless microphone’s transmitter. This cordless microphone & transmitter is an optional extra, since most celebrants already have their own cordless lapel microphone linked to their own small portable PA system, but just in case they don’t bring their own, we can add a cordless microphone into our second system for an extra $30.

Our standard system hire fee for this second disco system is $120, then there is a further $40 per half hour which goes to our DJ for whatever extra time you require his services. So if your Ceremony is to start 2 hours before the start of the actual Reception inside the venue, then your total extra cost would be $280 including both the system hire ($120) and the 2 hours DJ time ($160). Or if your Ceremony is only starting 1.5 hours before the start of the actual Reception inside the venue, then your total cost would be $240.
Here’s a close-up shot below of the DJ Sound Mixer (which has 4 sound source inputs, plus 2 x microphone inputs) and the Dual CD Player Controller.

If you do book this second system for your Ceremony, our DJ will get there about 1 hour & 45 minutes before the start time for your Ceremony, so that he has an hour and 15 minutes to set up the main disco system inside the venue, then 20 minutes to set up the second system for the Ceremony, then the final 10 minutes to change into his suit etc.
All that set up time (and the time taken to pack up after the Reception) IS NOT CHARGED FOR. All set-up and dismantling time is already INCLUDED in our price quote.
After the DJ finishes playing music during the “pre-dinner drinks” period, he immediately goes inside the Reception room to where our main disco system is already set up, and as the guests start to come in and find their tables he starts playing at a low volume a pre-prepared CD of 4 or 5 of the “background songs” you have chosen, THEN he goes back outside to dismantle the outdoor system and load it back into the van. This usually takes only 10 to 12 minutes, so that he is back in position behind the main disco system WELL BEFORE the time you and your Bridal Party are scheduled to make your entrance.
Since we first started this extra service just over 12 months ago, our Ceremony packages have now become very popular.
We have done them at the Royal Botanic Gardens, at several wineries, on the beach at StKilda outside the “West Beach Bathers Pavilion”, and at quite a few suburban Reception venues with outdoor Ceremony areas in their gardens, so we have now put together 2 more systems, meaning we now have 3 Ceremony systems available to cope with the increased demand.
Here are 2 photos of how these 2 new Ceremony systems look:

These photos were taken at a Wedding Ceremony in the Foyer at “The International Of Brighton Receptions”
