Elan-DJ.com Planner Scripts: (found at bottom following all the tips for success
Important Tip #1: Once under contract, your planner script will be due no later than six weeks prior to the event. It is then turned into a one-page working script which is sent to you--complete with questions/issues highlighted, in pdf format. This goes back and forth until we have our final version which I then email or fax to your pertinent servicing vendors after I have called them (caterer, venue, etc.) That way we are all working off the same page, eliminating territorialism which would have interfered with your ability to enjoy your big day.

Elan Reception Planner Script in your preferred version:
We prefer if you can make all your alterations using the .doc version
and then email it back to us. If this is not possible then please use
the .pdf version.
Important Tip #2: For those of you who have hired the services of a full-service Professional Wedding Coordinator, please download accordingly but leave the order of events section blank, completing everything else.
Important Tip #3: Although we do encourage all clients to pick a large portion of the music for their event, we regret to inform you that if you pick all of the music for your entire evening, we cannot guarantee that your guests will dance. Picking all of your music prevents us from going with the flow of what is working on the dance floor, effectively limiting us in our own field of expertise. A simple solution is to provide us with a list of too much music for your evening which allows us to pick and choose as necessary to keep the party going.
Success Tip #4: If you have an excellent handle on the bulk of your guest's favorite dance music styles then go ahead and pick more music than your contracted number of hours, if not, be more general when filling out your script after downloading it from the links above. In other words, just give us the styles of music and/or individual songs you absolutely do not want to hear. We will then construct your playlist of the most danceable and popular songs from the styles you do want.
Final Tip: Just a reminder: a 4-hour reception will take approximately 65 songs from start to finish with musical silence only for toasts and blessing. 5-hour receptions take approximately 80 songs. Please keep in mind the duration of your cocktail hour and meal time which must always be more a more mellow style of background music.Preferred DJ positioning: (if your reception layout does not match one of these four jpg's, a simple rule of thumb is to ensure that there are no tables between the DJ's location and the dance floor--blocking the DJ's view of his workspace. Occasionally further discussion is necessary.)
