When you’re planning a wedding, hiring a wedding DJ in Mesa is just as important as other planning details, such as choosing your venue and compiling your guest list. Here are some questions to ask a potential DJ before hiring them for your special day:

  1. Are you familiar with the venue? Ideally, the DJ should have some experience working in your chosen venue. This will save time when it comes to setting up and choosing the best spots to place all of the equipment. If they’ve never worked there before, consider giving them a quick tour before the big day.
  1. Do you specialize in weddings? While they don’t necessarily have to do just weddings, they should have plenty of experience with them. Weddings are different than, say, corporate functions.
  1. Do you have a wide selection of music? Chances are, you’re going to have guests ranging in age from young too old; so your DJ should have a good selection of music to please everyone (maybe even a few polkas thrown in for good measure!) This will ensure that everyone has a good time.
  1. How long have you been in business? When it comes to your wedding, you want to make sure that the DJ you choose has the experience and reputation to make sure that your reception is successful. They should have at least a couple of years of experience.
  1. Do you have a backup plan in case of emergency? Do they know what to do in case of equipment failure? What if the DJ is sick that day – do they have a replacement who will know what to do?

Asking the right questions before hiring a DJ for your wedding will help to ensure your wedding and reception are memorable and fun for all.
