Wedding Planning 101: Do’s and Don’ts from a Pro DJ with Mike Emrick from We Bring the Party Events

In this episode of Clarksville Insider, Josh sits down with veteran wedding and event pro Mike Emrick to break down the dos and don'ts of wedding planning in 2025. From rethinking timelines to skipping traditions like bouquet tosses or lengthy first dances, Mike encourages couples to design a day that's meaningful to them — not just a carbon copy of weddings past. They discuss the rising trend of content creators at weddings, how to vet vendors, and why it's okay to throw out the template in favor of creativity, intentionality, and personal values.
