Wedding DJ Basics

As wedding DJs ourselves, we feel we are uniquely qualified to help brides and grooms choose the best wedding reception entertainment possible. Hiring wedding vendors is usually a new experience for couples, and wedding disc jockeys are some of the most influential wedding vendors out there. After all, they are the ones who set the tone for your entire reception!

If you've decided to hire a disc jockey instead of a live band, you will need to find a real pro. To start with, you need to decide on where the DJ fits in your reception plans. What is the role of the DJ? Will the DJ just be spinning music or are you expecting him to also be the Master of Ceremony? What is the kind of music you would prefer-- will the DJ be able to accommodate that? And finally, how much are you looking to spend on your wedding reception entertainment?

Look at Yellow Pages and online listings of wedding DJs, known names you get from loved ones, references, and recommendations. Check with local dance clubs and radio stations -- they can often provide good leads. Magazines and newspapers may sport advertisements of companies that provide wedding DJ services.

Look everywhere! This will give you a broad picture of the prices involved and will also help narrow down the list to fit your budget. Don't assume that the most expensive DJ will be the best DJ -- sometimes wedding disc jockeys are quite reasonable even though they have the skills to pay the bills!
