Assuming your big Wedding day is on the way and now you are taking steps to find a profession DJ to host the entertainment at your reception. Of course you want to ensure you have a truly memorable Wedding event. So next up, here are 5 quick considerations from a Toronto DJ, Bob Hawkins, to help you ensure your Wedding entertainment will be the best time for you and your wedding guests, family and friends.
Tip 1. How to Seek out a Professional Disc Jockey and why. Part-time disc jockeys may rarely have the support network behind them to assist if a mishap occurs on the all important day of your reception. After all, you only plan to do this once and a professional DJ is always equipped with a backup plan as well as years of experience as a professional.
When seeking a DJ for your wedding or other big event, be sure to ask What their policy is, if the equipment fails? Or what happens in the event that the Disc Jockey becomes ill on your big day? A professional service has backup equipment available and experienced people on standby until the completion of the last function.
Tip 2. During a review in your DJ selection process, ask each DJ you interview about how many years they have been providing disc jockey services. Also it may be wise to ask them about their dress code? If your Wedding event is a Canadian based event, you may want to ask if the professional DJ is licensed with the Audio-Video Licensing Agency. Beware if they are not in compliance, your special event could end abruptly, in the event a licensing inspector pays a visit and finds that your Disc Jockey is not licensed by the AVLA.
Tip 3. Avoid the temptation of trying to save a few bucks by hiring a best Friend or inexperienced person to handle your event. If you do have a friend or relative handle your function, then it may save you a little money, but it could also cost you a friendship! Your special occasion will be conducted just once, and it needs to be done with an experienced professional to avoid disappointment.
Tip 4. Remember when choosing a Wedding DJ to ask about the selection criteria for music. How many songs can they offer at your event. What types of Genres of music can they provide? Do they offer a service to pre-select a variety of your type of music? Do they carry a selection of only 500 songs or can they provide you with a choice of thousands? All good questions to ask up front.
Tip 5. Ask the Professional Wedding DJ if they can provide you with a few recent customer testimonials from their clients. This is another good thing to check. Any professional Disc Jockey who has been in business for several years will have a volume of solid client testimonials for you to review.
