Maine DJs, Double Platinum Celebrations busy this winter.

Another winter season is upon us, but that doesn’t mean that Maine’s most reviewed and most requested DJ service is in hibernation. This year there have been many corporate functions to keep us busy, and we have had many repeat parties and holiday events. With wedding season around the corner, we are keeping sharp, and amping up for what will be our best wedding season yet ! Inquire today to get the best entertainment for your wedding or special event.

Peace of Mind

When you're purchasing a product or service, as the customer you should feel content and secure knowing that your money has been well-spent on a quality purchase.

What separates Double Platinum Celebrations from the competition is not only our state-of-the-art sound systems, but what you don't see after we're all set up: backup equipment. Any good DJ – and for that matter, any service-providing vendor – will always be prepared for the unlikely scenario where something does go wrong. Double Platinum Djs always take the extra time to pack extra equipment for every part of your function, whether it be an extra speaker, a second mixing board, or an extra laptop. At Double Platinum Celebrations, we're honored to be a part of your day, and why we don't leave anything to chance.

DJ's vs Bands: The great wedding entertainment debate

So the time has come. You are planning your wedding day! You pick your date and your venue, but what's next?

It is the ever popular question, what do I want for entertainment?

Couples come to the fork in the road, do I choose a DJ or do I choose a band for this most special day. Here is why you should choose Double Platinum Celebrations, Maine's largest and most sought after DJ service as your wedding entertainment, rather than a band.

We are professionally trained masters of ceremonies. We will facilitate the different parts of the day loud and clear on the mic to make sure everything runs smoothly. Maybe your band is less than professional and doesn't do well with introductions of large parties.

We have extensive music libraries with thousands and thousands of songs at our fingertips. It's pre recorded music, therefore it's high quality all the time. Bands are limited as to the number of songs they know how to play, and maybe the singer has fallen ill and can't perform to the best of his ability.

Double Platinum has the highest quality DJs in Maine and we have you covered from Bangor to Boston! With over 25 experienced DJs on staff, we have what you want!

"Your special day, your own way. "

Attention brides! Garter and bouquet tossing are things of the past! New trends make for new and exciting weddings.

The long lasting tradition of tossing the bouquet and garter are slowing falling by the wayside, says NBC. This tradition is now being replaced by such things as groom and sister dances and bride and brother dances.

Other wedding trends that are on the rise are such things as candy spreads and bourbon bars. Complex designs on cakes are replacing the plain white traditional ones of the past.

Look for even more bright and colorful ties and socks on the men and more two color bridesmaid dresses.

A fairly new trend that looks like it's here to stay is, believe it or not, male engagement ring!

For more wedding trends, stay tuned to the Double Platinum Celebrations blog, home of Maine's largest and most sought after DJ Service!

Entertainment is top priority for brides in 2014!

How important is your entertainment for your wedding? Here at Double Platinum Celebrations, Maine's largest and most sought after DJ company, it's very important! Let us be part of your special day!

We are getting ready for the Portland Bridal Show on January 4th and 5th at the Holiday Inn by the Bay. There will be thousands of brides at this event, and we hope to see you there!

Wedding Music Planning is our Specialty.

Here at Double Platinum Celebrations, we work with you to play everything you want to hear, and leave out everything that you don't.

We let you choose all of the songs, and also make sure that they are the correct versions and edits. We work with you from start to finish to plan your perfect, customized playlist. In 2013, the DO NOT PLAY list was just as important as the PLAY list, and we see this as a continuing trend for Maine brides in 2014.

Creative introductions were also trending in 2013. Why not give your guests something to make your wedding stick with them forever?

Contact us now to talk about your perfectly customized wedding!
