Create an atmosphere that feels like a party

Lighting
Lighting is very important. If it is too bright people will be reluctant to dance. Try and have dull lighting to start with and then make it darker when you want the dancing to start.Mood lighting is always great for setting the mood earlier in the night.
Unless you don’t really want a party atmosphere we strongly recommend that you have some sort of party lighting. People will very rarely dance under normal house lights and we only recommend no lighting for daytime functions.
If you are having a theme you can usually find lighting to help create that theme.Even a basic mirrorball or a few fairy lights is better than nothing.It is always good to be able to change the atmosphere with different lights depending on the time of the night.If you have some coloured party moving lights that you can turn on when you want people to start dancing this will help get the party started.
If you want people to dance,create the right environment and it will turn out to be a night to remember.

Choosing the right venue for your party

How many times have you been to a party where there is simply no atmosphere simply because the venue is way to big.Most people through no fault of there own  have no idea on how much room 100 people will take up.The  amount of times I have shown up to dj at a function and the venue is a massive hall the size of a basket ball court with a few dismall balloons and no heating with 50 people up one end.Smaller venues work better everytime and it is much better to have too many people for your venue than not enough.Bigger isnt always better when it comes to venues for your party.House parties tend to work well in this regard as the area is usually alot smaller so even if the guest numbers are low it can still feel like a good party. It is very important to keep in mind when looking at venues that if you invite 100 people it doesnt mean that 100 people will show up unless it is a formal occassion like a wedding.If you count on about 60% of your invites showing up any more that show up is and added bonus.The more interesting your venue is the better the atmosphere will be.
