wedding melbourne

In this week’s episode we chat to Laura and Stu, who got married in ultra cool and relaxed style on 8 April 2023. 

They got hitched at the Vegas style chapel in Collingwood, Altar Electric, with their reception being held at Le Bon Ton down the road. Le Bon Ton is an American bar and smokehouse with a function space upstairs. The food is delicious and the atmosphere ripe for a party.

Laura and Stu told us what they were after in their initial enquiry: “Definite party vibes! We have quite eclectic taste but plenty of old school soul, disco and Motown. A few selective pop-punk songs that we love and 80s classics”.

DJ Aleks Mac played the tunes for their reception and was joined by our sax player Kenny. As is usually the case after a few bevvies at Altar Electric, the guests came into Le Bon Ton absolutely ready for a boogie!

Laura and Stu share their laid back approach to wedding planning, why they DIDN'T do a first look, their fave moments on the day and some seriously helpful tips for all couples planning their non-traditional weddings!

We hope you get a lot out of this episode, our last for this season. Thank you for your support. We'll be back for Season 4 later in the year!

On this episode we talk all things live music for your wedding with Wendy from Wendybird Music!

We’ve had the pleasure of seeing Wendy live and she has an incredible voice and is clearly very passionate about music. Wendybird Music offers highly customisable live music options where Wendy and her musician buddies can perform as a duo, trio, quartet and five piece. 

Although we are DJs, we absolutely LOVE live acoustic music for pre-ceremony arrival, ceremony key moments and cocktail hour. What a vibe!

On this episode, we chat to Wendy about how she works with couples in the lead up, hot tips for briefing your acoustic artist and choosing ceremony songs, and an insider look into how Wendy and her musicians work (we were fascinated to learn that they “read the crowd” just like us DJs do!).

We’ve been reflecting on the last year or so of weddings we’ve played (almost 150 of them!) and wanted to share with you 5 common mistakes we see. They’re not make or break, but they will have a material impact on your big day (especially if combined - yikes!). Avoid these mistakes and you’ll thank us later!

As always, thank you so much for listening to our poddy and we hope you enjoy!
