What to Tell Your DJ About the First Dance

The four details

Send these in one message.

• Start point: from the top, or a specific second in the song
• Length: full song or your edit, and how it ends
• Dip cue: the moment of the dip, so music and lights hold there
• Lights: dimmed, spotlight, or normal

Agree on the introduction

Ask how the DJ will announce you and wait for that line before you walk in. A clear cue removes the awkward pause at the start.
