Wedding DJ AMA: What does the DJ think is shameful.
Hi all, after a comment I left on a post in this sub, there was a lot of interest to know what I see doing the job that I do. I've DJ'd at least 160 weddings as of writing this.
I thought about how to post this, since I've had enough interesting experiences that it might take a while to get them all out, and most of them don't really rise to the occasion of a whole post here.
In all actuality most of my weddings are great, fun parties celebrating a wonderful couple. Only a few stick out as rough. Since I'm not related to most of my clients, I typically am less aware of personal drama that needs to be shamed... That being said, I've worked with bad vendors, rude guests and family, momzillas, and difficult couples. I've seen fist fights and shouting matches, and my fair share of cringe moments during the event.
The majority of the things I observe that I think deserve shaming are going to be behind the scenes things that I think ruin the event for the couple or guests and family. I'm keeping things vaguish here just so hopefully none of my clients find this thread, and we'll protect anonymity as best I can.
I'll leave this thread open and answer any question you've ever wanted to ask a wedding DJ
With that said, ask me anything!!
