October 2012 Weddings

Who announces the WP when there's no DJ?

Hi Everyone,

October 20th bride here.

I just started thinking about this today.  We won't have a live DJ.  Instead my brother will be managing the iPod/Computer playlist.  So, who announces the wedding party in the absence of a DJ?  Wedding Planner?  Officiant? Pre-decided designee?

Thanks for your help,

  • I would think you would just need to designate someone.  Maybe if your brother's managing the music, he would be a good choice?  We are having a band (my FI plays in a big band, and they've offered to play), and the band leader will be making those announcements for us.

  • You'll also need to think about a microphone so everyone can hear whoever is doing the announcing.

  • My brother is "DJ"ing in the sense that he's manning the computer playlist, but he is way too shy to do any microphone stuff. I asked a friend that's invited to the wedding and is the events director for a large non-profit organization to MC for us. He was very honored to have been asked and I know he'll do a fantastic job. :)

  • Thank you for all of the great feedback!  We will have a microphone.  Thanks for bringing that up though.

    I'll consider my brother.  Or maybe one of the wedding coordinator team.
