Okay, this would be a good place to ask this.
My fiance and I were talking about our wedding reception the other day. Now, as an artist I know from time to time I can be offended when people don't trust my professional judgment. But.......
My fiance and I have very specific ideas about the music we want (we are Christians and want 75% Christian music, with the rest being country, rock, and crooners) and don't want (no rap, no booty shaking music, no hip hop, no R&B). Do you guys think it would be offensive for us to go to the DJ with a list of 20-25 songs that we certainly want to hear, then a list of 40-60 songs for the DJ to choose from to fill in the rest, and inform him that we don't want him taking requests?
Would that offend your artistic sensibilities?
Should we offer to supply any music not on their play lists (since most DJs we have talked to only have 5-10% of our songs on their available music) or should we wait for them to ask?
