- Don’t restrict the DJ too much. Let him read your audience first and decide whether its fine to let your guests request songs. Sometimes they can request something great, sometimes it can be really annoying. So let your DJ control the music
- Rent some dance floor lighting, these will definitely add an edge. It will completely change your dance party environment.
