The Athletic Club of Columbus Wedding DJ Guide | Columbus, Ohio

For an Athletic Club wedding, your room combination and the timing of a room flip shape the sound plan.

Music and sound for your wedding

The Athletic Club of Columbus at 136 East Broad Street lists the Lounge, Crystal Room and Gold Room, including room combinations, in its wedding guide. Ask for the layout that shows the band or DJ position, dance floor, tables and the paths guests will use. In a combined room, check that everyone can see and hear toasts, including the tables farthest from the microphone.

What to confirm with the venue

If your ceremony and reception use the same room, ask when the room will reset and where guests will wait. Give your DJ the reset window so there’s music during cocktails, a plan for the ceremony microphone, and a clear cue for opening the reception doors. Set dinner levels for conversation and mark the point when the room changes over to dancing. A clear first-dance or open-dance cue gives the photographer, planner and DJ the same start time and leaves time to test the toast mic before dinner.
