When to Hire the DJ and when not to listen to Wedding wire.

I recently came across a post on wedding wire about wedding DJs. To summarize the post listed vendors in order from most important to least and the time frame which you should book your vendors. Wedding DJs were at the bottom of the list. This shocked me. First, I normally book 1-2 years in advance for weddings. Brides and Grooms need to understand that hiring a bad wedding DJ is putting your wedding and the party in jeopardy. Some couples are reluctant to spend 1,500-2,500 hundred dollars on a DJ. I understand it is a lot of money. However, please understand that a talented wedding DJ will run your big day. The DJ should be creating the wedding agenda with the bride and groom. A great DJ will interact with your guests. A talented MC and DJ will be able to gain your guests trust and play some of those songs that you are questing if you want to hear. A good DJ....

You get my point. Don't wait to hire your wedding DJ 6 months before your wedding.

Weddingwire is just flat out wrong in this case.
