OK so you've decided to have a party. It’s probably a Wedding, a birthday, a retirement party or just any other excuse to have a good time and have a few drinks with friends and family! Why not? You shouldn’t need an excuse!
It’s the day of the party, the foods sorted, your friends are there and the venue is fantastic. But hang on...its 8pm, the dance floor is empty and everybody is either at the bar or sat down talking. What the....
Hang on, take a breath and chill out. You've got friends and family from all over the place that haven't seen each other for ages and they want to catch up. Apart from anything else...they want to get a few drinks down them first and get into the party mood! If it's your wedding and are having a first dance then the chances are all of your guests will come in for that, they will dance for about 3 or 4 tracks and then sit down at the bar again. As Corporal Jones says...Don't panic Mr Mannering, Don't Panic! This is quite normal and as a DJ I see this at nearly every party I do. They won't come back up to dance properly until suitably fed and watered! They will all start to filter through between 9pm and 10pm. If the floor is still empty after 1030pm then you could perhaps approach the DJ and give him a few requests but remember that at some party’s people will just want to talk. It's nothing you or the DJ are doing; they will probably still be enjoying the music but just want to chat.
Remember...the family that aren't local only see each other at weddings, birthdays and funerals!
