Getting Married

Aren't they a Beatles tribute band? If so, does that make them plastic scousers?

The friends I have who are 'DJ's' are vinyl snobs who would treat 95% of the attendees with utter contempt

What's wrong with them? Can't you find someone who treats 100% of the guests with contempt?

I call it impossible....currently.

We had live acts but between and after we used an ipad and an app called Limitlist. Basically you select all the songs you might want to hear and tag them all by whatever classification makes sense to you. Then you build a playlist not by specific song but by classification. When you play the playlist, it picks 3 songs that fit the classification and lets people vote from them for the next song. So by selecting the playlist based on classification you set the overall pace and tone, but leave an element that guests control on the night. Ok it's not a dj but it's more flexible than a playlist. Plus when someone votes that app takes their photo...

the other thing we did was a silent disco (our venue had a midnight noise curfew). It worked really well as people could take the headphones off to chill and put them on to dance. Also one of our most snooty muso friends nearly died laughing watching us all sing Gay Bar to music he couldn't hear...

Thanks for all the ideas, will discuss with the boss and update.

Sure, I have a great assortment of Benny Hill tunes, too.
