WED: Wedding Entertainment Director ...that title cracks me up.

WED: "No, I don't actually plan the wedding... I direct the entertainment."
Bride: "We'll, I thought you were the entertainment. Does that mean you direct yourself?"
WED: "Oh no, I coordinate every facet of your reception orchestrating the perfect presentation and a truly memorable experience."
Bride "But, we have a wedding planner already - so doesn't that leave you directing yourself?"
WED: "I offer the greater value of someone who can direct your total entertainment experience rather than just play music."
Bride: "Now I'm confused.. I thought you were playing the music? How many of YOU are there?

I was in Burger King today when the guy making French Fries declared himself the FFD ..fortunately my order was up 5 minutes before they tripled the price and began talking jiberish.

And before anyone says anything there going to have to ask them self why would the DJ mention these stages in his web site if he is not going to make a contribution to each of the 5 stages of a wedding.

I could offer you the 5 stages of taking a dump... but, it really doesn't complicate the procedure nor does it add any value to the experience.
 
I have to disagree with your analogy proformance

I could see where this $3000 DJ interacting as he does in the 5 stages of a Wedding would be able to add a different value then a DJ that doesn't get involved in the 5 stages.
 
"MAGIC" represents 5 essential elements that will help you design an extraordinarily magical and memorable wedding reception of your own. Those 5 elements are:
? MOMENTS & MEMORIES
? ATTENTION TO DETAIL
? GUEST INVOLVMENT
? IMAGINATION
? CELEBRATION

This can also be described as "contrived narcissism" where you encourage people to treat their guests disrespectfully as spectators in your fan club. What underpins the inexperience and social ignorance of the WED guild is that much of what they try to build into wedding receptions already has a proper social etiquette placement in other parts of wedding tradition - such as the engagement, rehearsal, etc. The fact is, your wedding is not like a movie.

It should come as no surprise that not only is this attitude acceptable in today's all me world of "Anyone's got Talent" and reality TV but, that the trend also originates from the same west coast which is famous for feeding us such self-absorbed Hollywood waste products.

Oh God! Help us....there's even more?

Let me guess:

1. Denial, 2. Awareness. 3. Acceptance... blah blah blah

Most research concurs that there are 6 stages of wedding planning:

1. Euphoria – “Squeee”
2. Discovery – “Ooooh, PRETTY”
3. Panic - “How the hell”
4. Outrage/Depression – “What the EFF”, “EFF me”
5. Rebellion – “EFF it”
6. Zen - “It is what it is”

DJ Sarge you are indeed a very observant DJ.

I sure hope Sarge's deduction isn't a $3000 DJ .. other than a nice logo, the rest of that website isn't very appealing. A lot of snarky remarks about "blinky lights" and such .. wouldn't be something I would want to emulate.

Let's not get distracted on all the other superficial stuff but let's concentrate on those 5 elements of a Wedding that are chances to upsell and become more valuable to the Bride if you so desired.
 
Cesar go covert to that other site we dont need anyone represented over here as he isnt a member. Go to the Wedding Wire forum and play in the street. Your stuff is growing very tiring quickly. Ignore me and see what that gets you.

Well Joaquin,

That post paints it like the only goal is to prey on the elements of a wedding and dupe the bride into giving you more money. That would mean that the DJ is obviously working towards his own best interest and not the bride's.

...And before you tell me that you "disagree", remember that you're the one holding the paint brush.
