Questions for a Wedding DJ

Hiring a disc jockey for a wedding reception is an expensive but fun addition for the entertainment. With numerous DJs to choose from, it is important to know what questions and expectations to have when choosing the right one for your special day.

  1. Is This Your Career or a Hobby?

    • A career DJ will be more likely to provide his clients with excellent service.

    Do You Have a Contract?

    • As with anything dealing with wedding arrangements, make sure to choose someone who will put all terms in writing.

    What Training Have You Received?

    • Like any professional, the DJ will have gained his talent through some means of training, whether in a classroom or on the road.

    Have You Played at this Reception Site?

    • It is important the DJ is familiar with the facilities to ensure he brings the appropriate equipment.

    Do You Make the Announcements and Motivate People to Dance?

    • The bride, groom and family are typically busy focusing on guests at a reception, so will this DJ be in charge of overall events and announcements to keep the party going? Also, every DJ has a different approach to bringing people to the dance floor, so make sure this one's style will fit your overall reception vision.

    Should Something Happen, Who Will Be the Replacement?

    • Always make sure a replacement's name and contact information is written into the contract.
