Advice for Hiring A DJ

Will the DJ offer to meet with you AFTER signing the contract to plan your event?

A professional DJ is ALWAYS willing to discuss your event at any time before the event starts, and should display the flexibility to accommodate changes and help you solve problems. Meeting or phone/ video conferencing your DJ to plan your event is of paramount importance to a successful event such as a wedding reception.

Do you LIKE the person that shows up?

There is NOTHING worse in the world than having to do business with someone you do not like. Choosing the person who feels right is the most important factor in picking the right entertainer for your party or reception.

Does the DJ have a music list or online system that shows you what sort of music he or she has available?

You need to be assured that the DJ you hire not only has a sizable collection but has a variety of music, where many different styles of music and guests will be in the same room together.

Does the DJ use professional-grade equipment?

The DJ should be able to tell you what he/she uses and characterize the equipment as professional grade.
