AW: Paid my first deposit

FebDallasBride

I may not have a venue secured, but I sure as heck have a DJ!!! Brianna, thanks for raving about Melody so much I locked her in for Feb 2012!

DUDE I cannot get a schedule down for a time that we can meet with her! FI and I have weird schedules! I'm THISCLOSE to just blindly booking--- is that a mistake??

I enjoyed my phone conversation with her enough that it just felt right to go ahead and book. Even DJs that I worked with in my profession didn't give me the vibe I got from her. We talked FOREVER the first time we got in contact with one another, and even tonight when I talked to her she was more than reassuring with me.

<div>OK - I totally blindly booked!  (aside from meeting her "formally" at the Dallas Bridal Show)  But I didn't find another DJ out there (and I spoke to MANY) that I clicked with like her... I say, if you feel good about the decision, do it. </div><div>
</div><div>Melody isn't a fly-by-night DJ though, she comes very highly recommended by several knotties, so you know that you're getting quality!</div>

I did this!  I had talked to her on the phone so many times and with the wedding planning and then my step dad's funeral we just couldn't meet.  I sent her the check to book her and then I just met with James last week to do our "first and final" meeting to go over details.  She is awesome and everyone raves about her.  Even my venue coordinator got excited when I told her I was using them!

Congrats! Wow she's going to be booked out soon. I should have checked her out before I booked mine, but oh well. Things happen for a reason.

Apparently I booked her for a weekend that she does an annual Murder Mystery thing. She didn't seem to mind though and said one of her other DJs can do the Murder Mystery that weekend.

And I LOVE how she's coming off as a coordinator and not just a DJ.
