This vs That: Reception Layouts Vs Chaos
Manage episode 296652039 series 2947169
THIS IS PART 2!
If you ever wanted to know how to royally screw up your wedding ignore this episode. We had to split into part 1 and part 2 because there was that much to cover. Part 1 is about your timing, this is about where you place everything in your spaces.
The only people who are typically at a reception start to finish are the planner/coordinator, the banquet captain and the DJ. So who did I turn to for this episode? This vs That editor Lance Panton. Between Lance and I, we have probably a thousand weddings to spill the goods on.
In this one you'll hear about and about 80 other things:
- Your ceremony, where should musicians or the DJ be located (and the speakers)
- What is a sound engineer and do you need one?
- Your reception, does the DJ or band need to be central to the dance floor?
- Do you need additional lighting and is there enough power for it when you add in what the DJ or band is using?
- What will be in the lines of site for toasts, photography and video and what you can do to enhance them
- Spacing between tables for guest comfort and the servers
With his professional start as a DJ at 17, Lance Panton has possessed a love of music since birth. is the owner and sole DJ for MY DFW DJ - Weddings & Events.
