🎧 The Wedding Duo Podcast – Episode 70: How to Get The Most Out Of Your Dance Party
Welcome back, friends! We’re a little sniffly (thanks, travel + wedding weekends!), but we powered through because today’s episode is one of our favorites: how to maximize your dance floor.
If you’re dreaming of a reception that’s more rager than relaxer, this one’s for you. We break down everything you need to know about getting guests on their feet and keeping the party alive.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
✨ Why the couple being on the dance floor sets the tone for everyone
✨ The ideal dance party window (and how long guests will actually keep dancing)
✨ How DJs read the crowd and time those “big songs” just right
✨ The pros and cons of activities like bouquet tosses, money dances, and fake send-offs
✨ Tricks with lighting, glow sticks, and layout that make a huge difference
✨ Why the DJ’s location in the room matters (don’t stick them in the corner!)
✨ Real talk: what separates a wedding DJ from a club DJ
We even share a few funny travel stories, some glow stick chaos, and tips on how to avoid losing your dance floor momentum.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
