1) Did anyone play music at dinner? If so did you bring your own on cds and what was it played on.
2) We want a DJ for the poolside did they do the MC, if you had dinner at a resuraunt did you do the cake at the reception is that an option as we do not think people will want it right after dinner? My father was our MC. Turns out I never even thought about it. So they provided a microphone, but that's it. My dad announced us as we walked in, and then there really wasn't anything else to announce. We only had 35 people, so it was pretty obvious when we were doing our first dance, cake cutting, etc.
3) With the DJ did you provide all the music in proper order for him to play or did you just give him some key songs and he filled in the rest?I wasn't sure what to do, so I made enough CDs that it would cover the whole amount of time. What ended up happening was that he mixed my music with his music and it was perfect.
Please see my answers... but I can only comment on 2 & 3
