Disco Hire > iPod WEDDING HIRE

It's already big in America, and it's getting popular here too, recent advances in technology has made using the music on your iPod a real alternative to hiring a DJ for your party. In my personal opinion, a good DJ with quality kit is the best option if you're planning a large formal wedding and you have the budget, but there're many reasons why this may not be your choice. Maybe your budget is tight, or perhaps you want to hire a band, so only need the disco for the last hour, and you can't justify the cost of a professional DJ. On the other hand, you just want to 'do it yourself', have fun, and save your hard earned cash for the honeymoon

Whatever your reason, with a little forward planning you can have a great disco using your favourite tracks on your iPod, an added benefit, is that you have total control of the play-list, no rubbish, no nasty surprises. Advice is freely given, and play-list suggestions suitable for a mixed age group party are available to all hirer's.

Tips & Tricks For a Successful iPod Wedding

Remember the 4 P's, Plan, Plan, Plan and Practice, we offer an extended hire period at no extra cost to enable you to have a practice, use it !!

Use 2 iPods, it can be done with 1, but 2 are better, if your music's on a laptop, it's better still, use it, it will connect to our equipment.

Plan a 'running order' in addition to 'playlists' and alternate selections between players at natural 'break points'

Always include extra tracks in each sector case of an over run in your calculations. it happens, even to pros!

Load the entire playlist content onto both iPods, it will give you more flexibility to 'react to the floor'

If possible have a backup iPod or laptop with the music loaded on to it, just in case one goes on the blink!

Nominate a responsible person (a bit techie is good) to 'keep an eye on things' and make any anouncements, or intervene if needed

Have a selection of evenings disco tracks on both players so you can dump a track that's clearing the floor without an embarrasing gap.

From a DJ's perspective the music is not for you, you should be playing songs your guests want to hear and dance to.

If you've a mixed age group, include plenty of party classics in the early evening disco, save the dancey chart tunes for later on

If you hire our PA systems we will provide you (free of charge) with playlists selected by a pro DJ + telephone support if requested

Resist the urge to 'motormouth' on the microphone, it's not cool, remember, less is more!
Run your MP3 files through MP3Gain before loading them into your iPod, it's free, it's easy, and will ensure a constant level of volume
