Timings & planning
When should the silent disco start at a wedding?
A common approach is to start after the main reception traditions and early evening dancing, or exactly when the venue's normal amplified-music period ends. The best time depends on your timeline and guest mix.
Starting too early can split attention, while a planned late-evening switch can create a second peak in the celebration. Coordinate the start with the DJ, venue and coordinator.
