Primary topic: Gujarati wedding DJ Ohio

## Summary
DJ Wale plays Gujarati weddings across central Ohio, including garba and raas nights, pithi, baraat, ceremony audio and the reception. We play continuous garba and raas rounds that keep the circle moving, then switch to Bollywood, bhangra and Top 40 when the floor is ready.

## Overview
A Gujarati wedding usually has a full garba night, and garba is its own skill. The circle needs continuous rhythm, smooth tempo changes and the right moments to switch from garba to dandiya raas. Stop the music for too long and the circle breaks.

We play long, mixed garba rounds that move from traditional garba to modern remixes, then raas with dandiya, and we know when to let the circle rest. When the garba ends, the same set turns into a Bollywood and bhangra party.

We also handle the pithi, the baraat with dhol, ceremony microphones for the maharaj and the reception, so one team carries the music through every day.

## What's included
- **Garba and raas rounds:** Continuous mixed garba and dandiya raas with smooth tempo changes.
- **Pithi and mehndi:** Folk and family songs for the pre-wedding events.
- **Baraat:** Live dhol and portable sound.
- **Ceremony audio:** Microphones for the maharaj and background music.
- **Reception:** Entrances, speeches, effects and an open floor.
- **Lighting:** Warm uplighting for garba halls and moving heads for the party.

## How a Gujarati wedding weekend runs
1. **Family morning** (Pithi): Gujarati folk songs and light Bollywood.
2. **Circles** (Garba night): Mixed garba rounds, then dandiya raas, then a Bollywood party.
3. **Procession** (Baraat): Dhol and baraat songs to the venue.
4. **Audio** (Ceremony): Clear microphones for the maharaj and soft music.
5. **Party** (Reception): Entrances, first dance and an open floor with a garba round.

## Music
Traditional garba, modern garba remixes, raas, Bollywood wedding songs, bhangra and Top 40. Tell us the garba songs your family always dances to, and we will build the rounds around them.

## Planning tips
- Plan at least 60 to 90 minutes of garba on a garba night; guests will dance longer than you think.
- Order dandiya sticks for the raas round and decide when to hand them out.
- Pick a hall with enough open floor for circles; we can advise on layout.
