Tips to Hire Wedding DJs

Posted by Mercury DJ Hire on May 19th, 2018

Make a List of Prospective Wedding DJs

First, ask your family and friends for referrals. Include these DJs in your list. Consider first those DJs working near your wedding reception. Also, ensure that you see these DJs in action.

Second, search your area for a wedding association or group that can provide a professional DJ.

Third, you may look for industry awards for wedding DJs online. If the winners work within your area, you can include them in your list.

Fourth, you can use consider the DJ recommendations from your wedding reception. But, be wary of such recommendations as most reception venues charge wedding vendors a fee to be included in their list of recommendations.

Check Online Review Sites for DJs

Because of the Internet, it is now easier to plan your wedding. After listing wedding DJs, the next step is for you to check the review sites. Go through your list and check if these sites have reviews for each one of them. Also, if you read good reviews about a DJ not in your list, you can add him or her. Be wary also of DJs paying for good reviews.

Review Wedding DJ’s Website

A professional wedding DJ has a website. Check it to know the DJ’s pricing and style. If you are planning your wedding, your chosen DJ must meet your DJ style requirement and his price must be within your budget. If you cannot find a price in the DJ’s website, you can expect that he charges a higher price than what the others do.

Most websites have an availability checker. Use it to check if the DJ is available on the date of your wedding. You can also contact him or his representative to ask for his availability. Also, you have to take note of the DJ’s response time in answering your query. If he does not answer promptly, you better drop him off from your list.

Check the Wedding Chat Boards

You can search for online chat boards for the raves and rants for wedding DJs in your area. But, you must be careful and perform due diligence because you hear one side of the story only. Sometimes, customers or competitors can malign a reputable Wedding DJ. 

Know the Equipment that the Wedding DJ Uses

Call the remaining DJs on your master list and ask what equipment they use. Note it down then search for the equipment on Google. Also, find out the price for each of the tools that the DJ uses. By doing your own research, you will find out which of the wedding DJs use excellent equipment. 

Have Other Wedding Vendors Review Your Master List

If you have hired other wedding professionals already, have them check your DJ master list. Ask them for their opinions. Since they work in the same industry, most of these wedding suppliers know each other already. They may have worked together in some wedding gigs.
