Your wedding date is scheduled, the ceremony location and reception hall are reserved, not to mention some of your other wedding services. Congratulations, you think that your major wedding decisions are actually made right? Well, not exactly! Anyone could assume that looking for a great DJ for your wedding would be as common as a search on the internet, asking one or two friends and checking some DJ websites. Of course, most DJ's will be acceptable for your wedding right? However, there is a large distinction between some DJ's and DJ companies. Certainly not just from the price of the DJ service, but also in the quality.
Exactly how do you determine what DJ to settle on? We've taken our experience to compile a list of the best 10 things to ask a potential DJ company. We feel these questions are particularly crucial and usually overlooked. Asking these questions will reveal the differences in the standard of DJs you are considering for your big day.
1. Can they be insured for liability and theft coverage? Our organization estimates that most DJ's are not insured! In addition, some wedding party locations are now requiring proof of insurance from your DJ.
2. Exactly how long has the wedding disc jockey company been in business?
3. Will your DJ have a written contract for you? Can the agreement be worded fairly for both parties to sign? Note: A DJ performance agreement needs to have simple, clear, and easy to understand language and be no more than the usual page or two. If it looks like you are purchasing house using a long, difficult to understand contract, we recommend selecting another disc jockey.
4. Are going to they organize and announce the bridal events, first dance, etc.? Will they be your MC in your wedding?
5. Can they perform games and special dances using your guests should you want that? Will these games and interactions be up to date? In the event that they mention hokey pokey, bunny hop or Macarenakeep looking!
6. What makes them better or totally different from other wedding DJ companies?
7. If the DJ becomes ill, has a vehicle breakdown, a child's emergency or for whatever reason can't get to the wedding, what's the back-up plan? Is there an experienced DJ to take their place in a moments notice?
8. Are they an experienced wedding DJ? What amount of weddings and ceremonies have they performed at?
9. If there is an equipment failure, are they going to have spare equipment positioned on site to keep your party going?
10. Will they give you complete and up to date references with names, contact details, and numbers of previous wedding clients?
All your questions must be addressed by the potential DJ company. When you make a decision on the person or company you want for your wedding entertainment, it's important to reserve that date right away. Why? Because some of the popular disc jockeys are booked well in advance on busy wedding dates, sometimes with a year or even more. If you wait, you may have to be happy with your next choice. Best of luck on your hunt for the perfect DJ and congratulations!
