Our dj was on time and had everything set up in both our ceremony and reception locations before our guests arrived. She checked in with me before the wedding with last minute questions and updates. The ceremony went smoothly and we were happy with the intro and exits of songs (things like fade ins and outs). For the reception however, we were really hoping for more variety.

Before the wedding, we filled out a playlist for our dj to work with and play music from. We also had a discussion with our dj on the phone about the feel and plan for the night. We had a good amount of "oldies" on our playlist, but also new songs which are my husband and i's favorites, and more popular with our friends. Over the phone, it was discussed that the dj would start the night with oldies, to get the older crowd dancing. We were fine with that and agreed to the idea. But we didn't realize that the whole first 3/4 or half of the dance would be dedicated to the oldies. We felt like very very few of the newer songs were played, and were really bummed about this. The dj also played same artist songs back to back, which we thought was an odd choice. We still had a good time, as it was our wedding, but we were really bummed at the lack of variety for our dance.
