Time for Photography

Your wedding day is 24 hours or 1,440 minutes or 86,400 seconds short. Why short? Because it is divided by a million things to accomplish!

By now you should know them by heart but if not you soon will. That morning you’ll be busy with things like hair, makeup, getting dressed, eating. That’s right. Don’t forget eating and photography at the house. These and many, many other items are all part of the time allotment puzzle. (READ MORE)

Dessert Only Wedding Reception Ideas  By Jeffry Evans

With the rising costs of weddings every year, couples everywhere are trying to find ways to extend their budget while still planning a wedding and reception of their dreams. Many couples are starting to use other themes for their wedding receptions instead of serving a large dinner, or a cake and punch reception only, and the ideas are getting more and more creative. A dessert reception theme is starting to take off. You may have looked into it without knowing where to start or what to serve. Here are some of the most popular ideas for desserts in your dessert only reception. You can choose to implement only one of these ideas, or several for more variety so that everyone can have their favorite. (READ MORE)


Honeymoon Travel Tips 
 
As your wedding day approaches, so does your long-awaited honeymoon. Finally, no more guests and no more planning, just the two of you alone in a romantic getaway. Below is a list of items you may need to help prevent some potential mishaps: 
 
Passport and visas if you are traveling overseas - make sure you have applied for these items far in advance. Remember that security is now extremely tight and unyielding. While you are on your vacation, keep your passport and visas in a safe location, so you won't run into any complications during your return trip.   (READ MORE)

Central Park Prank 

This is a prank on a "grand" scale. Over 200 people gathered at Grand Central Station in New York to pull off a 'frozen in place' act. The on looking travelers who weren't part of the act were mystified as to what was going on.

CHECK IT OUT


Ipod DJ Story

We had the unique experience the other weekend to be hired to do a large light show for a local college.  They had already hired a local DJ, but just wanted our club lighting and laser light show.  I was able to sit and watch the other DJ perform.  Perform is not really the word one should use in this context.  He was an Ipod DJ.  All of his music was on a couple Ipods.  The problem is that he was playing consecutive songs off of the same Ipod, so as one song came to an end and the dance floor lost it's momentum, he'd press play on his Ipod and out would jump another song.  There were no subtle blending of songs, no beat matching, not even a simple cross fade from one song to the next.  It was abrupt and disrupting to the energy on the dance floor.

Make sure you know what you're getting when you look to hiring entertainment.  Just so you know, this college kid also has been doing weddings for years with some other company out near Worcester.  He is not a registered DJ Network member.


Guitar Hero / Dance Dance Revolution

Want something interesting at your next school or corporate event?  Why not a Guitar Hero competition or Dance Dance Revolution dance off?  We can bring in our LCD projector and screen and we'll make you the star at your next event.  Combine it with our karaoke option and you have a completely unique way to get everyone involved in the fun.


Full Line Of Inflatables and Interactive Games Available Through The DJ Network

The DJ Network has access to a full line of inflatables for our next corporate, school or private event.  Please inquire as to availability and pricing for any of your party needs.

We also offer other options such as photobooth rentals, dunk tanks and so much more.  Email us to inquire.
