What's up guys? Dj ESG on Sweating Device season number 10 or 11 or 12. I don't even remember, I gotta go check. But today I'm talking about weddings that are basically smaller than your usual big wedding, if that makes sense Most people nowadays. 150 to 175, that's a big wedding. We're back before COVID. It was like 175 and like more was like yo, that's a fucking good wedding. But now if you can get 125 to 150, man, that is a good wedding.

So I had one the other day with like 60 people and we were like inside this little room, yeah, I told the bride and groom. I said, listen, if you guys don't dance and you guys just sit there and don't really do anything, nobody's going to really do anything with you. It was just like all right, that's what's going to happen. No-transcript in the room. And all of a sudden I'm banging, I'm playing music, and well, now the dance floor is going all right. So here's the bride. We got half the battle done right, the brides of the earth. We're doing good. We got the pop music going, the dance music going. Here comes the EDM and the groom's still outside. So I'm like, okay, the photographer's still here. She's got to get some kind of photo, Because we have to have something with the groom. There can't just be nothing, there has to be something with the groom.

So I turn around and I go, okay, listen. I'm looking at the song list and I'm like, all right, if he likes that song that much, he's probably going to sing it to her the Elton John part of the song. So I'm like, all right, I'm going to play this song right now and I'm going to get his ass in here. And if he doesn't come right now for this song, then there's something wrong. So I play the song and I'm like, yo and yo, because I can see the door from where I'm standing, I'm like get your ass in here. And he looks at me and he laughs. He goes okay, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming. He comes in the room and he starts dancing. All of a sudden there's a huge rock and dance party. He starts singing exactly what I knew he was going to do. He was doing. So then I was like, alright, what else on this list? Can I keep him on this dance floor? They're all going to stay. They've been waiting for his ass for the last hour. So then I go this song and that song and he doesn't leave Like he wants to leave. But as soon as he hears the next song, he's like I can't go anywhere because I'm the one that asked for these songs. So I knew, if I saved his shit for the end, that he would stay on there and the party would end amazingly. And is that what we're amazingly? Party went, amazing, Something like that, and it did. And it was like all right, listen.

When you have a small wedding, you have to figure out tricks to get the bride and the groom to stay. A big song list doesn't work as well for 200, 250 people, because you have so many different options and so many different personalities that you have to kind of play for everybody. When you have this smaller dynamic of people and you have to keep the bride and groom on the dance floor because otherwise nobody else is going to be up there with them, because they're going to follow them around, like where they go in the bar I'm going to the bar with them then you have to pretty much have this is what we're going to do save these songs, play them later, boom, and that's what I did and it was fucking amazing and it ended great. I got a big tip, but the tip wasn't like the important part. The important part was the fact that when it was over, they were happy and they were thankful and they had a good time, and that's what I care about. Well, yeah, obviously I have to make money and tips. My wife has to go to Disney at least once I got to pay my bills. But I want to make sure that you go home happy, and that's how I can accomplish that is by making sure that songs that you guys want are played at the right time. And, yeah, smaller weddings the more help you can give me, the better, and that goes for all the DJs, not just myself. So hopefully this helped.

Peace, love and God above. I'll be back. This is my first audio and video. Wait, this is my first audio and video video vlog. Is that what that means? First audio and video blog. I'm all numbered like 217. And I finally decided let's get a cute little orange shirt and a nice little white hat and get on the, whatever this is called. I'll be back. Peace, love and God above, and I'm out. Bye-bye, Thank you.
