Why Should I Use My DJ At My Wedding Ceremony?
Wedding Ceremony DJ
There are many advantages to having a DJ at your wedding ceremony. A DJ can make sure to play the exact songs you want for each moment, and provide the necessary equipment to amplify the officiant and your vows so everyone can hear.
Having a DJ at your wedding ceremony helps take the stress off of you, your friends, or family members, and puts an expert in charge of making the music and audio for your ceremony perfect.
What Does A DJ Do At A Wedding Ceremony?
We can’t speak for every DJ out there. However, when it comes to Peaks ProEvent Services DJs, we do many things to help your ceremony go off without a hitch. Get it? A hitch?…..Okay sorry, no more bad wedding jokes, we promise.
Your Peaks ProEvent Services Wedding DJ meets with you multiple times before your wedding.

They will give you helpful advice and recommendations from some of their past experiences. Our main goal with your ceremony is to make it all about you and your dreams.
Your DJ will plan with you, play the seating music, play all songs during the ceremony, run microphones for the officiant and your vows, help with audio for other live performers or musicians, and make announcements.
I Want Live Music At My Ceremony
No Problem! We have had our DJs work in unison with everything from acoustic guitar, to string quartets, and Opera sextets. Here are some things many people forget about when having live music at their ceremony.
- Do they have their own equipment, including microphones?
- Where will you fit the 5 piece band your cousin plays in?
- Will you want them playing all the music for your ceremony? Including seating, processional, bridal march, unity or any other ceremony, and the recessional?
- Is your ceremony outside or somewhere that could be open to inclement weather?
These are just a few things to think about when booking entertainment for your ceremony. Let us run through that list to point out some of the advantages to having a DJ at your ceremony.
- We bring a separate sound system, wireless microphones, and an audio mixer to every ceremony. This means you will have great sound. We can also plug musicians into our mixer, and even send out a feed from the microphones for your videographer if needed.
- Our setup is non obtrusive, and we don’t have to be right near your guests for them to hear us.
- We can play all of the music, including seating, and every step of your ceremony 100% customized to your exact tastes. We can also easily work with other musicians or acts, to help fill in what is needed.
- We always bring our own weather proofing to any event that is not indoors. This means you don’t have to worry about no music at your ceremony or holding it off just because of a light drizzle.
