A wedding cocktail hour is the time that the DJ sets the mood for the wedding. It is the transition form the ceremony to the wedding reception party. The cocktail songs should be played at a low volume just enough for the guests to hear but still be able to have a conversation with their friends and/or family. The songs must be a mix of classic and current music, so you should always ask the DJ for a cocktail wedding DJ checklist. The DJ must increase the energy and volume of the music as the cocktail hour progresses (and the drinks start flowing:). WGW Media Dallas Wedding DJ has over 25,000 Cocktail songs to set the mood just right. We also find out what songs the bride, groom, and guests would love to hear and we make sure those songs get played.
