This week we have the privilege of showcasing the gorgeous DJ and MC, Sarah Lawrence. Sarah provides us with exclusive insight into being a wedding DJ and MC, and shares with us what she loves most about her job.
- Tell us a little bit about yourself. Why did you become a DJ/Master of ceremonies?
I was in the final for a competition at over at MTV when I was 21 years of age, that got me started in presenting. I started DJing in London a while back, I had always thought about it, but never had the opportunity until then…the rest is history! DJing is my passion.
- What do you love most about your work?
I love playing at weddings because everyone is always up for fun. You never know when you rock up to work in a club gig, whether it will be busy or if people are there to dance, but at a wedding it’s a lot of fun and the energy is always electric!
- What sets you apart from other wedding DJ’s in the UAE
My professionalism yet laid back and easy nature. I also have experience DJing across the world.
- For those who do not know what it entails, please explain the role of a wedding MC?
The wedding MC’s job is make sure there are no awkward silences thoughout the event and to keep a nice steady flow, give clear direction to guests and to genreally add a touch of fun and order to your wedding.
- Where is your favorite wedding venue to DJ at in the UAE
There are many, but I personally love the Park Hyatt in Deira ! Even though it’s one venue, there are a few really different and unique locations you can move to during the wedding day and evening. Each location has completely different feel and vibe.
- What’s your favorite & least favorite song to play at a wedding?
It’s not my place to say, even if I don’t like a song that has been requested, it means that other people do, and it’s always fun to watch as their DJ. The Macarena is always a floor filling winner!
- What are some things couples should look for when hiring a wedding DJ?
The DJ needs to be relatable and approachable. You want to feel 100% comfortable saying what you do and don’t’ like/want.
- Lastly, if you could give one piece of wedding advice to engaged couples, what would it be?
Keep the love alive by making a little effort with little thoughtful surprises every now and then ;)
