I know this is an older post but, I am planning my wedding and just wanted to say Thanks for some great tips. For those who seem to be upset by the notion of not hiring a DJ please relax. The Author was sharing some tips for those on a budget and also made mention of great ways to help the DJ. For anyone who comes across this, I would agree that if you don't have some knowledge of how to run the equipment (P.A. etc.) then you may need the additional help. I am a musician and have no problems dealing with any equipment. I compose my own music so again, song transitions and setting moods are no problem. If you are on a budget, don't let others scare you. If you decide to rent equipment, be smart. Ask questions, test the equipment before the reception and most local music shops rent at a decently low cost. Before we invested in our own equipment, we rented with great success. If you're reading this because you are in my shoes then, Congratulations on your engagement and I wish you the best!
