Hiring a Professional Wedding DJ for Your Maryland Wedding

Friday, June 12th, 2015

Maryland Wedding DJWhen it comes to creating the perfect wedding reception, many future brides  and grooms forget about the importance of hiring the right professional Wedding DJ. When it comes to the reception, there are three things your guests will always remember: the food, the drinks and of course, the music! For your Maryland wedding, get ready to learn the many perks of hiring a professional Wedding DJ.

The Perks of a Professional Wedding DJ

If you take your car to a mechanic, you know your mechanic has experience with working on all types of vehicles. Similarly, a professional Wedding DJ has just as much experience when it comes to Maryland wedding receptions. You may have a hard time figuring out what type of music your 10-year old cousin and grandmother might like, but your Wedding DJ has it covered. Professional DJs are constantly researching what music is popular, and they know what playlists will get dancers of all skill levels out on the dance floor. If you want that first dance to go perfect and have all eyes on you, a Professional Wedding DJ knows the right tune!

Keeps the Party Going

If you’ve ever hosted a party and you acted as the DJ, you’ve most certainly had a few moments where you questioned why on earth you added a certain song to your playlist. After fixing your mistake, you spend the rest of the time fiddling with music and miss out on hanging out with your guests. A Wedding DJ not only knows when to play a certain song, but they know how to avoid any lulls that might arise. A Wedding DJ can seamlessly switch between making an announcement, to playing a song that even gets your crabby uncle out on the dance floor.

Pick the Right Wedding DJ

With all of the stress of planning a wedding, the last thing you want to worry about is the entertainment at your reception. A professional Wedding DJ will work closely with you to execute on your plans, but a professional knows what they are doing, You won’t have to hold their hand through the process, and you will have the peace of mind that your family and friends are going to have a great time.

If you’re trying to plan the perfect reception for your Maryland wedding, it all starts with hiring a professional DJ!

Wedding DJ BaltimoreIt will be the best day of your life! It will be magical! You will be so happy! You will never forget the joy you will feel! It will be perfect!

If you are in the midst of planning your wedding, these are all probably things people have told you over and over and over again. But before you can relax and enjoy what is supposed to be the best day of your life, you must first plan out every tiny detail to ensure it truly will be a magical night.

  1. Date? Check!
  2. Venue? Check!
  3. Caterer? Check!
  4. Flowers? Check!
  5. DJ? Still working on it…

Looking for the right wedding DJ in Baltimore can be a daunting undertaking. There are a lot of us out there. Just take a minute, head to Google, and search “Baltimore Wedding DJ.” 1,050,000 results! Whoa! That is a lot of DJs. So how do you narrow down the search?

Looking for a Wedding DJ in Baltimore? Ask the Right Questions

Websites are great, but you won’t truly get to know a DJ until you meet with him or her and ask them a few questions. This will allow you to make a much more well-informed decision and ensure you have the perfect DJ for your big day.

  1. Why did you become a wedding DJ? Is this just a hobby or is truly a passion of theirs? You want a DJ who enjoys what they do, not one that is just in it to make a few extra bucks.
  2. How much experience do you have? There is something to say about experience. An experienced DJ has seen it all before and will know what to do no matter what happens. This will help your wedding day go off without a hitch.
  3. May I see photos or videos from past weddings? Is your potential DJ’s set up visually appealing and professional? Unfortunately, every DJ setup is not created equally.
  4. What’s your wedding attire? Similar to No. 3, you want a wedding DJ that looks the part.
  5. Do you have a backup plan? What happens if the equipment stops working in the middle of the event? Is there a contingency plan?
  6. Can you walk me through your contract? Look over the contract together and do not hesitate to ask questions about anything or any charges you do not understand.
  7. What’s your song selection process? Your DJ should be willing to work with you to craft a playlist specifically for your big day. This typically includes a “DO NOT PLAY” list.
  8. How do you handle requests during the event? Make sure they are willing to match guest requests up to your “Do Not Play” list and general music preferences.
  9. Can you give us an example of your mic style? Your DJ also acts as the emcee of your event. You want to make sure his/her mic style suits your wants and needs. This is the person that will introduce you, for the first time, as husband and wife. This is the person that will facilitate your entire reception. This is the person responsible for keeping the party going!
  10. Anything else on your mind? Now’s the time to ask!
