Brevin Cawthorne says, "You want to make sure you have a DJ that understands how to read a crowd, build up the energy and then keep it up. There should never be a lull—your DJ needs to have the ability to blend all sorts of genres to accomodate everyone and keep them on the dance floor," says Brevin. Contact DJ Brevin at 877-368-7280. Formalities such as the toasts, cake cutting, bouquet toss, the first dance and special bridal dances need to be discussed in advance with your DJ. Also, confirm the ending times, and what the cost would be to extend the ending time that night. Determine and understand all these details ahead of time, not the day of the wedding. DJ Brevin Mackinac’s Most Referred, Trusted and Experienced Disc Jockey Located ON Mackinac Island Celebrating Over 3000 Events on Mackinac Island FIRST DANCE The first dance is traditionally an important part of the reception as the song says something about the bride and groom as a couple. Think about what makes you unique as a pair and try to find a song with lyrics that mimic those sentiments. Take a dance lesson or learn something new to perform for your dance together, it's a real crowd pleaser. More memories are made when things are unconventional. Some hotels have an early cut off time because of the noise, but it's easy to keep the party going, just pick a predetermined place downtown and keep partying. The Pink Pony, Horn's Bar, The Gate House, The Draught House and The Mustang are all great places open until 2:00am. Thank You Letters I’m so happy we chose DJ Brevin for our wedding! Planning a wedding on the Island requires a lot of detail and logistics - knowing our DJ was located on the Island and familiar with the venue took a lot of stress off of my plate. His website made it easy for us to communicate regarding requests and logistics of the day. He kept the party going and the dance floor hopping!

We got tons of compliments on the reception music! Many of our guests expressed that they were impressed with the way the music was mixed rather than it just feeling like a playlist was running.
