One of the questions we get a lot from our wedding clients is what we would like to eat. And as a professional, we can’t thank you enough for thinking of us when it comes to eating. We certainly appreciate it and we understand that it may actually cost you a good amount of money to feed us, so thank you!But I just want all of you (both clients and prospective clients) to know that we do NOT need to be fed as DJs. We are very busy working for you and concentrating on spinning a great event. So getting something to eat for us is a perk. We don’t expect it and never will! And we will never eat at the DJ table!
However, please consider making sure that you make arrangements for your photographer and/or videographer and planner. They need it the most. In some cases, it may be in their contract, but if it isn’t, it really should be something that you want to consider.
They have been with you ALL day. And they probably haven’t had a chance to stop and get something to eat, mostly because they have been working like crazy to get the most incredible shots and video of the day and making sure everything goes smoothly. It is just nice to make sure they have a hot meal to fill them up.
I write this post because we have worked some events where the client has only made arrangements for us, the DJs, to be fed. And you can imagine how that feels when they bring out the two meals right in front of the photographer and videographer. In all the instances that that has happened, we simply split the meals up so everybody has something to eat. We try really hard to work with all the professionals, in more ways than you can imagine! So when you are giving your final headcount to your caterer, make sure to include the photographer and videographer.
