Wedding DJ Kent Advice – Save Money On Your Wedding Venue

Wedding DJ Kent Advice – Save Money On Your Wedding Venue

Your wedding venue will most probably be the most expensive item in your wedding budget (you do have a budget don’t you?).

Your favourite Kent Wedding DJ advises that as Wedding DJ Kent Advice on Wedding Venue Savings Image this is the largest item in your budget this is where the greatest potential for making savings lies.

Here are some great tips to help you save money when considering your wedding venue.

Book in the off peak season – May to September is the peak wedding season for your Kent Wedding DJ – setting your wedding date outside of these months will generally mean that venues will be more available and venues often offer better value for money deals in the off season
Weekday weddings are cheaper – many venues have Saturdays booked years in advance due to the high demand for Saturday weddings however many venues will offer discounted prices for Monday to Thursday dates – so not only are you more likely to get the venue of your choice but you can get it at a bargain price too!
Bank Holiday Sundays – some venues offer discounts for weddings on Sundays – book a bank holiday weekend Sunday and your guests will have the following day off to recover – your Wedding DJ Kent also offers competitive rates for Sunday weddings.
Winter wonderland weddings – think about booking your wedding in the run up to Christmas – many venues will be seasonally decorated already adding to the festive cheer to those boring beige function rooms – you can save a fortune in decorations in the room.
Venue package deals – look out for package deals offered by venues – the Bexleyheath Marriott Hotel is offering a couple of great packages I saw last weekend when I was there – there are some great bargains to be had particularly for smaller groups – one stop shopping – most do not include the evening entertainment but you know where to look for that Wedding DJ Kent!
Late bookings – venues are keen to book all their available dates so sometimes offer discounts for the dates they need to fill that are approaching fast – if you can be flexible with your date there are bargains to be had – with very short notice cancellations you can save £10,000.00 on your bill.
Marquee weddings – some venues offer to provide marquees for weddings in their grounds which can be cheaper than hiring the venue itself – smaller wedding venues may also offer marquee weddings to accommodate larger parties – you get all the facilities and picturesque grounds for your photos for a bargain price.

Wedding Advice – The Wedding To Do List – Top Tips From Your Wedding DJ

Wedding Advice – The Wedding To Do List – Top Tips From Your Wedding DJ

Weddings are certainly not the easiest of events to organise – but with the service I offer you do get more than just a disco – the wedding reception planner provided is a great tool to help out – and of course I will provide you with any advice you need taking advantage of my many years of experience – help is just a phone call away.

wedding dj checklist image I wouldn’t claim to be a wedding planner but I have most probably shaken hands with more brides and grooms than your local vicar and have many years of experience dealing with a huge variety of weddings. My top tip would be get yourself a small note book, a small as you can get so you carry it around, and write everything you think of in that – it will act as a handy check list and mean that you do not have to remember everything or will not forget anything as it is written in the book – it will be the best £1 you spend on your whole wedding.

Here’s a checklist that you can use for your arrangements – it’s not exhaustive and may include items that are not applicable to your wedding but it is a good starting point to help you out.

Set a budget with partner (and family).
Book the church or register office. If your wedding is to be held at a licensed venue you will need to provisionally book the registrar, but you must confirm with them three months before the wedding date.
Book wedding transport.
Book photographer.
Book videographer.
Draw up wedding guest list, consulting both families.
Choose the best man, ushers, bridesmaids and page boys.
Book the reception venue and caterers.
Book Wedding DJ.
Book honeymoon, not forgetting peak season is given that name for a reason – it gets booked early.
Arrange wedding insurance if required.
Hunt down the wedding and bridesmaids dresses. Remember made to measure dresses will take longer.
Hire formal wear for the groom, best man, ushers and the fathers.
Meet and confirm arrangements with the minister. Discuss the service, any readings and your choice of music.
Book registrar office if appropriate.
Order wedding stationary ie invitations (day and evening), orders of service, place cards, etc.
Organise and book wedding flowers.
Choose wedding rings.
Order wedding cake. Check with wedding venue if they supply a cake stand and knife.
Confirm wedding music with minister.
Finalise your honeymoon plans and check for any visas or vaccinations that may be necessary.
Book you wedding night hotel.
Buy honeymoon and going away clothes.
Set up wedding gift list with shops of your choice.
Send out wedding invitations at least six weeks before the wedding. Have your wedding present list ready for people who ask for it.
If presents are sent to you before the wedding send a thank you letter now.
Provide guests with details of local accommodation.
Buy presents for the best man, ushers, bridesmaids and mothers.
Chased up outstanding wedding invitations to enable you to finalise the guest list.
Work out the seating plan and write out the place cards.
Ensure wedding clothes will be ready on time (they need to be ready at least one week before).
Visit hairdresser to discuss styles and book final appointment.
Check all transportation has been arranged and check the journey time to the church/venue.
Arrange money for the honeymoon.
Inform banks, utility companies, insurance companies, driving liscence etc. of change of name.
Confirm final guest numbers and meal choices to venue/caterers at least 2 weeks before wedding.
Ensure arrangements for stag and hen nights are in place.
Checks everything is in place for honeymoon including tickets, local currency, travellers cheques and passports.
Pack clothes for honeymoon you wont need before the wedding.
Attend rehearsal for the ceremony and check wedding orders of service have been given to the best man or ushers.
Arrange practice of hair and make up for the bride.
The case for your honeymoon needs to be sent to your overnight hotel.
Arrange for wedding outfits need to be packed and taken home and returned to hirer’s whilst you are away on honeymoon.
Wedding presents need to be carefully packed up and taken home.
Arrange for wedding cake to be sent to people unable to attend the wedding.

It’s my intention to provide advise on all these items within this Wedding DJ Blog – check back soon for an update – use the search bar in the top right hand corner to search what you are looking for. If you cannot find what you are looking for send me an email or phone me up and I will help you as much as I can.

Party Venues In Sittingbourne For Your Celebration

March 2, 2012 by JMF Disco Leave a Comment

Party Venues In Sittingbourne For Your Celebration

Looking for a party venue in Sittingbourne? Here are a few suggestions to help you on your quest to find the perfect function venue for your party in Sittingbourne.

Each venue will have their own charms, advantages and disadvantages, that will vary depending upon your own requirements.

See a list of Party venues In Sittingbourne at the bottom of this page.

When deciding consider the following items:

Location – ease of access
Size – is it suitable for the number of guests you are expecting? Choose a smaller hall rather than a larger hall if you have a choice, it’s more conducive to the party atmosphere if guests are packed in – rather than having 50 guests rattling around in a large village hall. Remember that not all your invited guests will turn up.
This is not a comprehensive list of venues – have a think about possible venues in your area – hotels, bars, pubs, restaurants, clubs, community halls, schools, colleges, Uncle Dicks big back garden, Farmer Jones’ field for your own marquee etc
Are there enough tables, chairs, crockery etc available at the venue?
Do you need a bar? Is there one or do you have to arrange your own? Is there a mobile bar that you have to use at your chosen venue?
Decorative order – some venues look a bit tired and dated, others are modern and fresh. However a few decorations, balloons and uplighting supplied by JMF Disco can transform any room.
Cost – some venues are free or low cost to hire, others are more expensive and offer better fascilities.
Kitchen fascilities – need a kitchen? Then you need a venue with……
Parking – is there suitable parking for you and your guests – some town centre venues are a nightmare to park near – not so good if the weather is bad.
Access – is there easy access – remember you have to get in all that food, decorations, the bands equipment, the disco gear, granny with her walking sticks – first floor venues are not ideal.
Background lighting – what does the room or hall look like with the lights turned down low? Some venues have uplighters around the room, some have dimmers etc. Others have lighting that is not so controllable – all on or all off, maybe you have to have one row of strip lights on all the time – not ideal for that party atmosphere. JMF Disco can provide uplighting to any venue with less than ideal lighting.

Here are some party venues in Sittingbourne worth considering:-

Bapchild Village Hall
Bobbing Village Hall
Borden Village Hall
Bredgar Village Hall
Coniston Hotel (maybe – just maybe!)
Clock Tower Hall
Eastling Village Hall
Gore Court Cricket Club
Green Porch Hall
Hartlip Place
Hartlip Village Hall
Hempsted House
Iwade Village Hall
Kemsley Village Hall
Milsted Village Hall
Newington Village Hall
Rodmersham Village Hall
Sharsted Court
Sittingbourne Golf Club
Teynham Village Hall
The Woodstock Club
Tunstall Village Hall
UKP Leisure Club, Sittingbourne
UKP Pavillion, Sittingbourne
Upchurch River Valley Golf Club
Upchurch Village Hall, Upchurch
Wyvern Hall
Ypres Tavern Hall

I hope this helps you find your perfect Party venue In Sittingbourne, if you know of any others let me know and I will up date the list.

Wedding Wrecked By X Factor Crew – Advice From A Wedding DJ

November 28, 2011 by JMF Disco Leave a Comment

Here’s an interesting article picked up from the Daily Mail – Hotel Book In X Factor To Film at Couples Wedding Reception Venue

I feel really sorry for the couple, ignoring the list of mistakes made by the venue and Wedding DJ, this special day where the happy couple are meant to be the center of attraction, has been ruined by the presence of the X Factor crew.

There are a few points worth mentioning:

I think the invited guests have acted very rudely by allowing themselves to be distracted by the X Factor filming
The groomsmen could of helped the situation by rounding up wayward guests
Many country house wedding venues have several function rooms so can have multiple weddings / functions going on on any particular day, this can be a strain on the venues resources – i.e. cooking facilities / staff to serve you – beware – you could go for exclusive use at such a venue of choose another venue
Read the comments about The Grove hotel – not very good are they?

I think the venue have let the couple down very badly on the day – £6,000 compensation for such treatment doesn’t seem enough to me.

As for the DJ playing the wrong First Dance track – there is a simple solution to that:- Hire a good Wedding DJ
