Tips & Tricks for Wedding and Mobile DJs

It is common practice for a bridal pair to meet with DJs before they decide on the DJ for the wedding. This can be in person or with a call. The DJ can convince them with a pleasant and competent attitude. His skills can be seen when he attends to what the pair wants, shows his repertoire and his references.

Disc jockeying at a wedding requires careful planning. The whole event runs on a tight schedule and you as a DJ need to be up to date with all plans. Only then will you be able to create a music mix for every situation, because the necessary and fitting music may change instantly and differ greatly from the previous tracks.

Preliminary talk

Furthermore, you should prioritize the music the bride and groom wish to hear. As a rule of thumb, you should never play music that no one likes. The preliminary talk will reveal to you some “do’s and dont’s” and the general idea of what music should be used.

You should also keep in mind to check for legal restrictions and the usable space and equipment at the location.

Questions about the hardware, like lighting and electricity distribution, should be answered in advance. If you would have to set up big structures, you and your customers should visit the venue to clear up all uncertainties. Oftentimes imagination and reality differ

At a wedding, there are important situations that need different kinds of music. Some of those moments are reception, dinner, first dance, party, and speeches given by both bridal couple and guests.

In these cases, the music should suit the theme of the wedding. For the reception,  festive music fits best. Dinner goes well with something that is easy to listen to, while the music for the dance is chosen by the bride and groom. During the party, a great variety across many genres is essential.
