MC & DJ Script/Plan?

Mrs.Goose, on July 15, 2015 at 11:10 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 8

So I haven't really thought much into preparing our MC but now I'm thinking it's time to get organized!

I was wondering what everyone is doing or has done for there MC for the night. Did you give out a basic schedule of events and let them wing it? Or did you have it planned out with wording? I guess at the same time I'll be organizing a schedule of some sort for my DJ as well for music timing, dancing and entrances. Would love to hear what everyone is doing!

    They should organize this with you.

    I booked a DJ team that has all that nailed down already...she gave us SEVEN pages of "homework" to fill out regarding our schedule and flow of the day and specific songs to play for the big moments. It's a chore, but I LOVE it and was happy to see that they are that organized and prepared. We aren't giving them any exact "wording" though as you mentioned...other than how we want ourselves and the bridal party announced. So, I guess you could say we're letting them wing it on that...but I'm very comfortable with them and their professionalism after having a couple of meetings.

    My DJ called me the week of the wedding to plan the order of events and everything. He had like a form to fill out but I didn't do it, he just gave it to me to make sure I was thinking of everything.

    I wouldn't write a script. You're paying good money for this person, so let them do their job!

    I should mention, my MC will be my brother in law! So maybe that clears that up more haha. As for the DJ that makes sense that they would handle it in terms of music and timing Smiley smile

    Your DJ/MC will work with you on outline/timing . Make sure you advise your entertainer on things you want or don't want- ie certain songs, routines, etc .

    I just worked on this yesterday. My DJ had a "formalities list" for me to fill out, which I did. We are also doing a small ceremony at the reception, and I wrote out a script for that, since it is different from a typical reception. He and I are touching base 4 days before the reception to talk through everything.
