10 QUESTIONS
10 Questions to Ask a Wedding DJ
Are you available for my wedding?
The wedding dj service you select may not be available for your
date. It is always best to book your wedding dj in advance to make
sure you get what you want
Do you offer MC services?
Not all djs offer the Master of Ceremonies service in their price.
You will want to pick one that offers this service so you or the person
you select won't be struggling to find the right things to say at
the right time.
Does your price include setup and takedown?
Some djs will use some of the time booked for setup and takedown.
Look for a wedding dj that does the setup and take down without using
up your precious dj time.
Do you charge a retainer? and When is the balance due? Most respectable
disc jockeys charge a retainer. They will also present and sign a
contract with you. If a wedding dj doesn't present a contract, this
should raise a red flag.
Can we select what style of music to be played?
You should be able to select a a good size playlist from their song
library. If you want a song not on the list they should be able to
get the song for you.
Can I make a "do not play" list?
You may not want certain songs played at your wedding. Most wedding
djs offer this service but it but it never hurts to ask.
Can we meet the dj before my wedding?
Your DJ should be in contact with you in less than 1 week after
they receive your signed contract and retainer. At that point you
will share contact information with your DJ who will be in touch with
you around 2 months before your wedding day. At this point you will
set up a time to meet one on one and plan out the events. You will
talk about music selections, formalities, time lines, announcements,
and more. This session can last around an hour. This will make your
event go smoothly and ensure that your event is a success.
What is the total cost for X hours?
Although this question is practically a no-brainer, we thought
we should include it for the questions list because some wedding djs
may add the setup and takedown onto their price.
Do you DJ for X hours or does X hours include setup and takedown?
Some djs will charge you for 4 hours only for you to see that
one hour has been used up for setup and takedown. This could present
a major problem financially and emotionally on top of the normal stress
occurred at your wedding.
What is the minimum time charged?
Most wedding djs have a minimum hours requirement. Most is 4 hour,
although respectable wedding djs will be at your wedding for up to
6 hours figuring in 1 hour for setup and 1 hour for takedown but only
charge you for the 4 hours so you have the full 4 hours of dj'ing
excitement.
