wedding DJ
Nuptial music spinner
A wedding DJ is a disc jockey hired to provide music and entertainment at a wedding reception.
Beyond playing recorded music, they typically emcee the event—announcing the couple's entrance, first dance, toasts, and bouquet toss.
The role requires reading the crowd and balancing requests from guests with the couple's preferences: The wedding DJ kept everyone on the dance floor until midnight.
