Christina + Justin at Dubsdread Ballroom by Orlando Wedding DJ and Lighting
Christina + Justin were such a unique couple and I knew right away, they were the perfect couple for me to DJ for as soon as they walked into my office. When I first sat down with them, Justin, being a musician himself, had a clear vision of what type of music he wanted to be played at his and Christina’s wedding. In addition to the non-cheesy, overplayed music that you typically hear at weddings, he did not want LMFAO, Black Eyed Peas or any current-over-played music on the radio. It’s very important for me to know the “do not play” list, but I wanted to find out from Justin and Christina what was on their “MUST PLAY” list… and it consisted of his love for James Brown, Prince and Wilson Pickett.
Here’s a look into their special songs playlist for the wedding.
Bridal Party Introductions – Another Day, Jamie Lideu
First Dance – When the Stars go Blue, Ryan Adkins
Father/Daughter – I Loved her First, Heartland

To set the mood as soon as the guests walked into their orlando wedding reception, they chose a warm amber colored uplighting. Take a peek at these detail shots that show the warm glow in the background!
