Big D! (no not that, Dallas!!)

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

     As many of you know, in an attempt to continue to better serve my clients, I regularly travel to seminars all over the country. Doing this enables me to network with Wedding Entertainer’s from all over the country. This also gives me the opportunity to pick up some new ideas in order to provide the very best service possible to my clients.

     My most recent trip took me to Dallas, TX. The DFW chapter of the ADJA (American Disc Jockey Association) held a two day event that was top notch. I was able to pick up several new ideas that I am very excited to be able to begin implementing into my upcoming events.

     The keynote speaker for the event was Peter Merry  who is the owner Merry Weddings, as well as the author of the book “The Best Wedding Reception Ever!!” Peter is well known by professional DJ’s all over the country, as he himself is one of the top wedding entertainers in the state of California. He is widely known for his unbelievable personalized grand entrances, and I learned quite a few new ideas that I can’t wait to begin to incorporate into what I am already doing for my clients.
