When it comes to events that portray a particular culture, very few compare to Indian weddings. These weddings come with plenty of song and dance, pomp and color, and a wide variety of popular cuisines, including zafrani pulao and risottos. However, most people planning an Indian wedding typically focus on venues, décor, attire, logistics, and delicacies, and downplay one vital element: music. You need music to celebrate the joy and sanctity of an Indian wedding and make the event livelier. But, for that to complement every phase of the ceremony, you require a skilled Indian DJ (disk jockey). Some compelling reasons to hire a professional DJ for your Indian wedding are outlined below.
1. Expertise
Most people have at least one friend who loves sampling and listening to music. Although such people often come across as knowledgeable and with good reason, they may not have the skills required to entertain a roomful of guests from all walks of life. Plus, although you may be aware of your buddy's ability to select great music because you are of the same generation, your guests are likely to be of different ages and social classes. That is why you need a professional DJ who can entertain the entire crowd. Plus, since most professional Indian wedding DJs have lots of experience, they will select the right music for specific phases like the bride's entrance, reception, and cake cutting.
2. Equipment
Numerous pieces of equipment are necessary for playing good music at a wedding. These include a playback device like a laptop or media player, sound system, wireless microphones, and if you want to spice things up, disco lights and a video projector. Suppose you want to DIY the entire task or assign it to a friend. In that case, you need to either buy or rent all the equipment first. And that costs considerable sums. But you can avoid going to all that trouble and the unnecessary associated expenses by hiring a DJ who'll come with the right equipment to play at your Indian wedding. Besides, professionals know how to set up the equipment, avoiding issues like background static.
3. Song variety
Nowadays, most people prefer playing Bollywood songs, especially at their Indian wedding reception. These songs are usually ideal for any wedding stage, including the mehndi night, sangeet, bridal entry, and the main ceremony. However, some people also prefer listening to older classics, while children also have a unique taste in music. The safest way to ensure no group feels out of place in your Indian wedding is through hiring a DJ with an enormous variety of genres of Indian music. By doing that, you rest assured your guests are fully entertained with favorite tracks and special requests.
