Why your micro wedding needs a DJ

Small weddings with 50 or fewer guests (also known as micro weddings) are a great option for creating an intimate vibe on your wedding day, and can often be more cost-effective than a larger affair. 

Couples who are planning micro weddings often ask: With such a small guest list, do we need a DJ? (Spoiler alert: We think so!)

Here are three reasons why your micro wedding needs a DJ:

1. Guests need direction

Let’s face it: Wedding guests need explicit direction about where to go and what to do, even at a small wedding.

Instead of appointing an extroverted family member (or worse, you or your new spouse) to get on the mic and make announcements, let a professional DJ/MC handle it!

We’ll direct your guests throughout the event and ensure a smooth flow from the ceremony to cocktail hour, cocktail hour to dinner, dinner to reception, etc.

We can also make any necessary announcements throughout the night, like introducing your grand entrance or releasing tables for the buffet. 

Our pricing packages also include both wireless and lapel microphones for any portion of the night, including the ceremony and speeches. 

2. A DJ will set the right dance floor vibe

Though your guest list is small, chances are you still want your reception to be a party. 

As professional DJs, we know how to read the room and mix in and out of songs depending on the crowd. With a library of over 15,000 tracks, we can even take requests from you and your guests if desired. 

All of our pricing packages also include professional dance lighting to set the mood on the dance floor, along with high-quality speakers and an optional subwoofer to ensure that the music is bumping all night long.

3. You need to focus on having fun, not controlling a Spotify playlist

Imagine that instead of getting down on the dancefloor during your reception, you’re constantly having to monitor a Spotify playlist on your phone and switch up the song when the vibe is off. 

Or, instead of having a seamless first dance or grand entrance, your cousin Greg is fumbling with a playlist on a laptop while you stand in awkward silence.

It’s easy to forget about the various moments throughout your wedding that require special songs or background music. We want you and your guests to fully enjoy every part of your day, instead of worrying about who’s going to cue the next song.

At KayBay Entertainment, we provide DJ & MC services for weddings and events throughout the Denver metro area and across Colorado.
