Tips for Hiring Yoru Wedding DJ Wedding How To / Instructional

Congratulations on your engagement! What’s next? There are so many aspects of planning your perfect wedding. To get started, let me present you with two interesting facts. After the wedding, “72% of brides say that they wish they would have spent more time choosing their entertainment”. Secondly, after the wedding, “81% of guests say the thing they remember most about the wedding was the entertainment”. Unfortunately, the wedding entertainment is often one of the last vendors booked by a couple. Frequently the choice is made too quickly with the top concern being the dwindling budget that has already been overspent on other less important vendors. The longer you wait, the less choice in entertainment you have. The best disc jockeys often book up earliest, sometimes a year or more in advance, and as with most other services, you get what you pay for.

When it comes to choosing a disc jockey, keep a few things in mind:

• Make sure they run a reputable business that will still be there when your wedding date arrives.

• Meet them at their office; even a home office is fine. Don’t fall for the “let’s meet at a coffee shop” trick. If they don’t have an office, home or otherwise, then they’re most likely not a legitimate business. Taking money under the table only means they won’t be around for your wedding when the IRS comes to check up on their business.

• Make sure they have several different types of DJs – so they can match you with one that’s a good fit for your style. You wouldn’t buy a wedding dress from a shop that only has one dress on the rack – don’t make the same mistake having a solo one size fits all DJ either.

• The DJs who consistently do the best job for their clients are recognized by their communities as well. Check their awards to see if they stand above the rest.

• Always be sure that the DJ service employs a reserve DJ and system, standing by in case the unthinkable happens. Don’t settle for the “we have back-up equipment” ploy. That won’t help you if the DJ is suddenly sick or in a car accident on the way to your reception. Only trust a company that has a true fail-safe solution for emergencies – a back up DJ.

Your entertainment choice is an important one. Your disc jockey is linked to the success of the overall event. If your dress tears, you will still look beautiful. If your cake is the wrong flavor, your guests will forget. If your entertainment is a bust, your family and friends will be talking about it for years to come.
