Planning a wedding is soooooo much fun right?!
Plan as far ahead as you can, to find the right DJ.
Planning a wedding is so much more fun when you get to pick everything out for the big day. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't plan & prepare as far ahead as possible. There are still plenty of things that need to be decided & handled way before the big day. One thing you should start planning early, is finding the right DJ to work at your wedding.
Good word of mouth references are always the best place to start.
Word of mouth referrals can be very helpful when hiring a DJ. This is actually how i got my start in the biz. It's always a good idea to ask friends, family, and colleagues for recommendations if they've hired a DJ in the past and had a positive experience. This can give you a sense of the DJ's style, reliability, and overall performance. You can also ask the DJ for references or reviews from previous clients to get a better idea of their work. It's important to do your research and ask questions before hiring a DJ to ensure that you find someone who is a good fit for your event.
Personality is important and so is price, but don't let it be the deciding factor in your decision.
It's true that personality and price are both important considerations when hiring a DJ. Personality is important because the DJ will be interacting with your guests and helping to set the tone of the event. You want to find someone who is friendly, professional, and able to read the crowd and play music that will keep people entertained. Price is also important because you want to find a DJ that fits within your budget, but it's important to remember that the cheapest option may not always be the best choice. A DJ with a lot of experience and a great reputation may charge more, but they may also be more reliable and provide a higher quality performance. It's important to find a balance between price and quality when hiring a DJ.
Make sure you have a complete understanding of what your dj will provide and what they need from you.
Yes, it's very important to have a clear understanding of what the DJ will provide and what they need from you before hiring them. Here are a few things you should discuss with the DJ before booking them for your event:
- Services included: Find out exactly what services the DJ will provide, such as music, lighting, sound equipment, etc.
- Music selection: Discuss the type of music you would like to have at your event and make sure the DJ has a diverse selection that will appeal to your guests.

By having a clear understanding of these things, you can ensure that the DJ is prepared to provide the services you need and that you are prepared to provide any necessary support.
Hiring a dj should be easy and fun, not complicated or stressful.
In closing, hiring a DJ should be an easy and enjoyable process. Here are a few tips to help make the process of hiring a DJ as stress-free as possible:
