That since 2007 helping as a second shooter to an established wedding photographer I've managed to not only create my own business but still not think of it as a job. it's always an absolute pleasure each wedding day.
Do what you want to do. Get a DJ that will play the music you want. Don't worry about pleasing everyone else. It's your day and most of all have fun.
I'll work with my couples all the way, show them my ideas and work together to get all the shots they want. I've done a lot of weddings and although not all the same I do have tips to make the day flow so everyone has a good time.
The formal/informal shots of just the two of you. Always find time to do those.
Big umbrellas and leave the high heels at the venue. Sometimes the rain can add an extra dimension to the day and I'll always have a back up plan.
Hobbyist, doing street photography then met a wedding photographer who invited me to join him. Within a year I was shooting my own weddings. Never looked back.
