Every aspect of your wedding is important, but one of the most important decisions is making sure you have the right wedding DJ. You want a DJ who will be professional, play everything you want to hear, and be able to make suggestions if you don’t have a full playlist yet.
There are many different wedding DJs in Toronto, so how do you choose the right one?
Start by looking for these four things:
Equipment – a good wedding DJ comes with his own high quality equipment. The best will have photographs of their setup available and be willing to answer any and all questions you have. Often the best wedding DJs also offer lighting. Their equipment—both lighting and DJ equipment—should be able to fill any venue with fantastic sound and lights.
Flexibility – the best wedding DJs are incredibly flexible. They already have several different play lists and music from every genre. They understand how to work with different genres and which genres mix well together. Most importantly, they’re happy to work with a play list you bring them or create their own based on your suggestions.
Communication – a great wedding DJ is always honest and open with their clients. When you call them they should be willing to answer any and all questions you might have. Whether you want to know how best to work with your DJ or learn more about their experiences and their available playlists, you should be able to find out quickly and easily. The best wedding DJs also know how to communicate with your guests politely and professionally when they’re taking requests.
Professionalism – while a club DJ can often act wild and socialize with guests without any repercussions, you certainly don’t want your wedding DJ to act like they’re at the club. You want somebody who’s professional and knows how to work with all kinds of people. A good wedding DJ always looks professional, never drinks on the job and doesn’t socialize with guests outside of asking for requests.
You’ll also want to make sure you like your wedding DJ. After all, you’ll be working with them for a while. It’s important to book a good DJ well in advance and to meet with them multiple times to discuss and finalize your playlist before the big day. They’ll be there until the end of the night and if you want them to take requests they’ll also be talking to your guests. Make sure your wedding DJ is somebody you’ll enjoy working with and who your guests will enjoy meeting.
