9 + 1 important things to consider when choosing a DJ for your wedding

Choosing an excellent wedding DJ can be key to the success of your big day, as he or she is responsible for setting the mood for the evening. Here’s how you can find the ideal DJ for your wedding, taking into account the most important wedding considerations.

1. Personal Style and Musical Taste

Your wedding DJ should be a perfect match for your tastes, which goes beyond musical preferences. You need to take into account the DJ’s personality, style and the confident performance that will set the mood for the event. It is important to clarify beforehand your musical tastes and the specific songs that are important to you. A live meeting will give you an overview of the DJ to see if he or she is the right choice for your wedding.

2. Professional experience

Professional background and experience in wedding events are essential. Look for wedding DJs who have years of experience in catering for different age groups of guests. Have you ever played at your chosen wedding venue.

3. Technical Equipment

A reliable DJ no longer comes with just a mixing desk and players. It is now possible to find a DJ with professional sound and lighting equipment. So in one hand you can even enhance the professional sound and visual experience. Some also have extra special effects.

4. Communication skills

The wedding DJ needs to have excellent communication skills, as he or she is the one who manages the evening and liaises with the bride and groom. At an international wedding, it is important whether the person speaks the language or at least a common, international language.

5. References and Feedback

Ask for reviews from previous clients and watch videos of previous weddings where the DJ has played. Reviews should be informative, official – preferably Google or Facebook reviews.

6. Flexibility and Problem Solving

A beginner DJ should not be chosen because they will not have the experience to handle sudden situations. The best wedding DJ can adapt to changes and react quickly to unexpected situations. It is an unrepeatable day, profit must be earned.

7. Personalised Services

It’s not just the music that counts, but also taking individual requests into account. Some DJs offer personalised packages such as master of ceremonies services or themed music blocks. Forget these, they are not good solutions.

8. Pricing and Value for Money

It is important that the prices of the wedding DJ reflect the quality of the services offered. A higher-paid DJ can be well worth the price if he or she delivers an unforgettable experience, a show that will be remembered forever. Your guests will talk for a long time about how much fun they had that day.

9. Treaty and Agreement

Always sign a contract that sets out all the important details, including dates, services, equipment, prices, deadlines and payment terms. The contract should be thorough and clear to both parties.
