Ensuring a Positive DJ Experience

Your big day has arrived, your dream wedding for which you have been planning for months and perhaps, have envisioned for years.  All is perfect.  Your wedding dress, cake, flowers, etc… and, you have uncovered a great bargain in your DJ.

The horror stories abound concerning those who have experienced or been witness to a DJ who would be better suited doing something else.  It is also not uncommon for one to pay less for their DJ then for any other part of their wedding or reception.  Fact: a DJ will make or break the entertainment component of the wedding reception; period.

If the entertainment component for your wedding reception is important to you and you truly want your guests to have a great time, please do not look for the cheapest DJ you can find.  Professional DJs take great pride in their craft and have invested much in their equipment and music.  They also affiliate themselves with industry related resources and trends and care deeply about the experience they provide their clients.  Retain your DJ very carefully……

1. Visit their website and learn all you can about their business. Mine is http://www.millenniummobiledj.com

2. A professional DJ will provide you with a contract for which both of you will sign. A contract eliminates the confusion concerning the services that are to be provided and fees that will be rendered.




3. Discuss with your DJ the type of music they are most comfortable playing, if they are comfortable taking requests and how flexible they are concerning planning music preferences with the bride and groom. A professional DJ will employ his knowledge and expertise to WOW the guests on the dance floor, and, will also plan accordingly with their clients to ensure their music preferences are addressed.

4. Meet with your prospective DJ as this will allow you to establish mutual comfort levels to ensure you are making a good choice moving forward.  A consultation will also afford you the opportunity to ask in depth questions and discover all you can about the DJs ability to meet, preferably, exceed your expectations.  A professional DJ knows how to coordinate the important formalities that play out during a wedding reception and will guide you accordingly.  Most importantly, choose your DJ wisely and be comfortable with your decision.
