Do you dream of being the wedding planner all the local wedding professionals want to work with? Listen up!
When I had a team, I would ask top wedding professionals to come and talk to us about their corner of the industry so that we could better serve our clients and build stronger relationships with other wedding professionals. Now, we’re doing the same thing right here on the Design Your Wedding Business podcast.
In these episodes, I connect with various wedding professionals to discuss how we, as wedding planners, can better educate ourselves and our clients and become the best in the game. This episode is all about working with a DJ.
Craig Slater shares everything you need to know about working with a wedding DJ. He has some great tips on communication, meetings, scheduling, and more!
Craig has been DJing all over the Pacific Northwest for more than twenty years. He worked with clients such as Microsoft, Xbox, Starbucks, and Nintendo before pivoting to weddings, which turned out to be one of the most rewarding decisions he’s ever made.
