James Loram has been a professional full-time wedding DJ and planner for over 20 years. He created a downloadable wedding planner specifically for brides and grooms and was surprised when he found hundreds of DJs buying it, desperate to learn the true ins and outs of planning and performing at weddings. Unfortunately, the guide was specifically designed for engaged couples, not DJs.

With so many DJs out there needing help, James has put together a very thorough step-by-step guide that teaches and explains exactly what needs to be done to become a true professional wedding DJ.

James discusses every aspect of being a wedding DJ:

• The commitment: It's not as easy as you think
• The planning: It's all about personalization
• The agenda: What works and why
• The personality: More important than the music
• The music: Not as important as you think
• The day of: Should be the least stressful part of your job
• The equipment: It's last for a reason
• The final word: It's not about you
• The wedding songs timeline planner: A complete wedding planning guide

How to Be a Wedding DJ is filled with tons of ideas on how to make a wedding fun, how to plan a wedding the right way from an event mind-set, and a complete walkthrough of the wedding planning process. This book is designed to bring any newbie DJ up to speed on what it takes to plan and perform at his or her first wedding or for the veteran DJ who needs to take it to the next level.

Once you get the basics down, your next book should be The Best Wedding Reception Ever! By Peter Merry.
