Quick answer
When should the silent disco start at a wedding?
Start the headphones at your amplified music cutoff, with the headsets laid out and announced twenty minutes before it. That gives a two to three minute changeover instead of a gap, and the dance floor carries on to your venue's closing time.
Key facts
- Lay headphones out 20 minutes before the cutoff
- One DJ announcement during the final track does most of the work
- Most afterparties run 60 to 120 minutes after the cutoff
- Set the last track to your transport time if coaches are booked
