What To Consider When Booking A Wedding DJ Austin TX

By Douglas Sullivan


Weddings can be expensive and it is therefore very important that you are totally happy with the service providers you hire. Your wedding DJ Austin TX is no exception to this. A good DJ can cost hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, and you want to make sure you are spending your funds wisely. Here are some tips and tricks you can use to ensure you are completely satisfied with the professional you hire.

Many people make the mistake of thinking that they can save money on a DJ. The rise of music streaming services and compact disc burning software makes some couples think that they get away with renting a sound system and looking after the tunes themselves. They may find that they get part way through the evening without guests getting up and dancing. A professional can really help make sure that the party is fun and entertaining for everyone.

If you are looking for a way to save money on your DJ, you might want to find out if your reception venue can provide one for a fee. This can be good for a number of reasons. One is that if the DJ is employed by your reception space they are likely going to be familiar with the equipment that is available and the acoustics of the reception space.

If you are planning to hire an independent DJ you may want to look for one who has worked in your reception venue before. Do they know how the space responds to sound? Can they position their speakers and other equipment so that they are able to fill the space with sound and not overwhelm guests who may be trying to talk while the music is playing?

If you want to have the DJ play music while your ceremony is going on you need to communicate that with them. This can be much easier if you are getting married at the same site where your reception is taking place. If you want to make sure you are getting the ceremony music you want, make sure you are very detailed when speaking to your DJ and provide them with a wedding program or other itinerary.

A good DJ will discuss important songs with you but may want to have more input over the rest of the music. If you have your own preferences, make sure you communicate them when you are interviewing different service providers. You may want to find out when you need to get any song request lists to your DJ so that they have time to look up more obscure songs.

In addition to song lists you should also give your DJ a basic schedule for the reception. When will your speeches happen? How many people will be speaking? When will you cut the cake? Knowing information such as this, and any specific music that needs to accompany these events will enable your DJ to provide you with a musical experience you are completely happy with.

There are many places to look in order to find potential professionals. Wedding shows can be a great place to look and you can also find entertainment companies by looking online. If you have had a friend who was recently married you may want to speak with them to find out who they recommend and who they suggest you stay away from.
