I get tons of traffic to my youtube page. I have 3 videos with well over 20,000 views (Quinceanera DJ Houston Video<\/a> #1 – 21,179 views<\/strong> : DJ Houston Wedding Mix Video<\/a> # 2 – 32,826 views<\/strong> : DJ Houston Sonidero Mix Video<\/a> # 3 – 43,560<\/strong> views and all but 1 with over 1,000 views.\u00c2\u00a0 As a result, I get lots of people that want to subscribe to my videos and whom save my videos on their favorites.<\/p>\n

Today I logged into my DJ Youtube account<\/a> and got a new friend request. Of course, I checked out his videos and wanted to see what he was all about. He’s a cool guy that does stage lighting for big venues, concerts, fights<\/a> and things of that nature. I don’t know why he would want to be a friend with a little ol’ DJ like myself, but obviously he liked something I had on my videos.<\/p>\n

On his favorites I found a video Titled : Best Wedding Reception Tips<\/a> which had over 5,685 views. And if you can get a video to be viewed more than One Thousand Times, then you got a really good video that people love.<\/p>\n

I decided to share this video with my audience because the tips on this video are so helpful and easy to implement, I just thought to myself, this video needs to be seen. Brides as well as wedding vendors can definitely improve a wedding reception if they follow these 17 tips, and they can all be easily implemented by anyone.<\/p>\n

Video is by party guru DJ Dan Nichols of Michigan’s Boogie Brothers Productions<\/a>. Check out his website for more informative and helpful videos.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

Let me type these tips out for you so that you can just copy and paste them into your word document.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Don’t put the older guests next to the speakers or the dance floor.<\/li>\n
  2. Don’t cram your entertainment out of the way.<\/li>\n
  3. A party should end when it shouldn’t end.<\/li>\n
  4. A ‘too small’ dance floor is better than one that is too big.<\/li>\n
  5. Darker is better than lighter for dancing.<\/li>\n
  6. Keep the exit doors closed. 6a. Brides and Grooms should not stand near the exit door.<\/li>\n
  7. Nicer places (such as country clubs with great views) actually make it harder for people to dance.<\/li>\n
  8. The bar should always be in the main room.<\/li>\n
  9. If you are going to shut the bar down, do it during dinner.<\/li>\n
  10. Happy music keeps things going.<\/li>\n
  11. Respect the musical opinions of your local professionals (us dj’s).<\/li>\n
  12. Your wedding vendor should eat with the guests.<\/li>\n
  13. Consider not doing a Dollar dance.<\/li>\n
  14. People tend to remember the beginning and the end (I’ve gotten some referrals just on my MC’s opening speech).<\/li>\n
  15. Traditional events or speeches should be done before dancing, including formal pictures.<\/li>\n
  16. Do all you can to arrange your rehearsal dinner 2 nights before the wedding.<\/li>\n
  17. If you have to cut corners, don’t compromise on your entertainment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    These are the 17 tips but you have to watch the video for great reasons why you should do these.<\/p>\n

    Happy Planning!<\/p>\n
