  2. Tips for choosing a DJ for your Wedding • Professional wedding DJs are usually independents who own their own equipment, or they contract out through an event services company that provides the sound and lighting systems. These companies handle a variety of functions including corporate events, private parties, and weddings. • When dealing with professional DJ services, ask them to provide at least two references or testimonials from previous clients. Check out their social media pages for customer reviews, as well as photos and videos of previous events.

  3. If you are dealing with an independent DJ, ask them about their previous experience, and if they have previous clients you can get a reference from. More importantly, ask about their equipment, and whether they have a back-up solution if their primary DJ system breaks down. A DJ from an event services company will almost always have back-up equipment available if something unfortunate happens—this isn’t necessarily the case with independent DJs. • Of course, you should speak to friends and family members about their experiences with wedding DJs, and get their recommendations as well. • A basic DJ package for a wedding reception generally includes the following services:

  4. Music for the cocktail hour as guests arrive • Background music for the dinner service • Music for the wedding reception dance • A basic lighting package for the dance floor • The cost of a basic package will depend on several factors, including the size of the venue and the number of guests attending. Larger venues require more powerful DJ systems to provide the appropriate sound levels.

  5. Pro Tip • The event manager at your reception venue is a well-informed source of intelligence on local wedding DJ services. They see dozens of wedding receptions every year, and are usually happy to share their observations and recommendations with you. • Beyond the basics, there are other features that many DJ services can provide. Here are some examples of things you can shop around for when choosing a wedding DJ:

  6. Advanced Lighting Packages •  DJ lighting can be as simple as a sparkling mirror ball and a few colored spotlights, or it can include elaborate banks of LED illumination and trellis-mounted lighting effects. Just be aware that the bigger the light show, the higher the bill will be.

  7. Audio/Video Extras: • Depending on where you hold your reception, you may need the DJ to provide a wireless microphone for toasts and speeches. Another popular A/V extra is a video screen or projector so you can show a photo montage or a specially prepared video to your guests.

  8. Add-ons: •  Some DJ services have a variety of small add-ons that can add a lot to your special evening. How about some glow sticks to hand out to the young children in attendance? Or a handheld “cannon” that showers the newlyweds with a rain of streamers and confetti during their first dance? Some DJs will run an entertaining mini-event before or during the dance, usually a game involving the bride and groom or the members of their wedding party.
