Speakers So with the speakers, you just need to make sure we’re talking about REAL speakers. It’s not so much about brands (although some for sure are better than others) but mostly about making sure it’s not some cheap, small speakers. Just look for, or ask for, a picture of their full setup so you can see that they’re using professional speakers. If, however, you see these skinny tower-looking things, that DJ has invested a LOT into the quality of sound they’re delivering. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/edc5de78-29b0-437a-a33f-343d439467ec/Subwoofer.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 2. Subwoofer First, decide if it’s important to you that your chest rattles in ways you didn’t know it could rattle when the bass hits. Then, ask your venue if they would even allow a DJ to use a subwoofer (a lot of them do not). Then ask your DJ if he has a subwoofer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/9d7a7bb8-2086-4f81-bad5-31c4d70c4c9b/Lights+2.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 3. Dance Lights Dance lights are fun, you should expect your DJ to at least have a dance lights option, if not already included by default. High-end DJs will have wrap-around light rigs like in the picture, but most of your mid-range and even some high-range DJs will typically have something closer to a Gigbar like THIS. Regardless of what they have, make sure you understand if their lights are extra or included. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/338e0706-e2c3-41eb-84f7-91f0af2ae8e4/bogomil-mihaylov-ekHSHvgr27k-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 4. Microphone(s) Make sure you know exactly how many microphones come included by default and what’s extra. For any event that has someone other than the DJ using the mic (i.e. weddings) be sure you know the range of the microphone they have. If the DJ’s mic only has a 20-foot range, but their setup is 30 feet away from the officiant during the ceremony, there’s a good chance it’s gonna be a natural voice ceremony, or worse, one where the signal keeps cutting out mid-sentence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/86da4d1f-5e12-4544-8adf-0d751cd78f69/steward-masweneng-nUOpSNGiT1s-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 5. Fog Machine To achieve that “dancing on a cloud” look, you use a fog machine. They’re like $40, so every DJ should have one as an option. As cool of an effect as it is, there are reasons why this isn’t a default assumption, some venues and DJs not even allowing them at all. First of all, there are chemicals involved in order to achieve the fog. It’s important for you to check that it’s water based, and not oil based. Oil based fog will look better, but will leave a residue on your dress and have potential health risks. Secondly, fog can trick a visual smoke detector, so it’s important to know what kind is at the venue if you don’t want a very unwelcome interruption. Additionally, it obscures the dance floor. If the floor is raised, or if someone drops a glass, it can compound the dangers of hazards. Lastly, you don’t want the fog during the whole event because you don’t want prolonged exposure even it’s supposed to be safe. People with asthma can have issues, and some people can experience allergic reactions. Lots of people still use fog machines though, these are just things you should know and consider. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/35e6f7d4-9edf-4c62-8512-2ea90979fac0/20181110_163801.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 6. Uplights Exactly what it sounds like: lights that point up! These can give an aesthetic impact to a reception hall. They’re extra work to set up so they’re often an upcharge. Ask how many they have, and if they can accommodate your color theme. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/2e95b2e2-6953-4dfb-867f-44e3ec0de1b8/20231126_171721.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 7. Dance Floor Rare. Most venues have their own dance floor, so most DJs will not. There are, however, dance floor vendors if you need one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/2de752e2-b616-4323-8e64-9a0f2390f68d/Salsa+3.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 8. Photo Booth Some DJs have a photo booth that doesn’t require an attendant, being so intuitive that your guests will be able to operate it unassisted. This can add a lot of fun for the guests, and give you tons of great pictures to keep! Different models take different quality of pictures, so keep that in mind! The better the picture quality, the higher the cost. There are four main things for you to ask: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/dc37d783-5304-4b23-afaa-e931a1aff483/Team.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - 9. Backup DJs Most DJ’s are solo operators, but there are plenty of DJ companies! A big downside to working by oneself is that if anything happens to you, there’s nobody to replace you. If you want the extra peace of mind to know that there are more DJ’s who can come if something happens, then you’ll want to ask if you’re dealing with a solo operator or a team of DJs. If it’s a company with multiple DJs, you’ll want to ask if you’re speaking with your DJ or a coordinator. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/19e3ea57-64b6-41b4-9b3f-c4cdb84c8ec1/Personality.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/43c4a3a4-f783-4d88-bf13-b4d916a84019/Flexible.JPG Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/972b6807-3b83-44b3-87c6-7a1e876091b5/nordwood-themes-q8U1YgBaRQk-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Call and Reviews These are the best ways to get a vibe for the kind of person you’re dealing with. For reviews, consider the compliments and criticisms from the DJ’s perspective. Was it a reasonable expectation that someone is upset about? Was there a miscommunication? Especially look for compliments about how they handled being inconvenienced, because that’s usually when their character shows up. For calls, read on. :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/486072df-1e22-4fdf-8e7f-bbf4601b5b6a/stefan-schauberger-cy-H4onG8PI-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Team Player Back when I was a waiter, I overheard some coworkers complaining to one another about their tables. I’ll never forget when one said “I’m your servER, not your servANT”. Now don’t get me wrong, I completely believe that people in a position of serving others should be treated with respect. But I also think that it’s best to work with humility when people don’t value your service properly, and grace when the customer is a little rough around the edges. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/59e2587a-5370-42bf-9cc2-32d4684432c0/helena-lopes-e3OUQGT9bWU-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Fun Do they seem fun? Do you get along? This should not be your first priority, because there are plenty of charismatic people who are bad at their job, but it IS important to know if they’re someone who seems like they have good skills with social cues. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/4cbbaa71-23b3-4122-b0a0-62628b311d53/s-kelly-V8btJnoiy0w-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Commitment How committed are they? Do they quit when the going gets tough, or do they try to solve every problem as a challenge to be more creative? Unexpected things WILL happen at some point either while making plans or during the event, so it’s important to know how they handle hard times. For example, there was a time I was working under one of those park ramadas and it started raining hard. Fortunately we had shelter, but the floor was low enough and the rain heavy enough that the entire ground flooded with half an inch of water. So when I noticed that water coming in, I had to think REAL fast for what to do about all my electrical cables, grabbing chairs and whatever I could find to raise stuff off ground level. Then, once I had secured my equipment (with the help of some wonderfully considerate guests) I played a song that turned a “oh no it’s raining” night into a “HECK YEAH IT’S RAINING” night”. :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/97cf1965-a693-4730-b846-58df74cc52e9/Price.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/2e7662d4-1f9a-4a06-813b-9133d2af0316/william-bayreuther-vOGO-wr_1LI-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/b17ea472-46a2-4670-b5ea-414685fb9949/Microphone.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - MC Services Some DJs make this an “add-on” charge, however in my experience almost every event needs this as a fundamental service. Master of Ceremony services, or “MC” for short, refers to two pieces: 1. Doing stuff on the microphone. 2. Helping keep the event running. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/ee09934e-6c43-44a7-995d-f805b633d043/Organization.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/6a530f99-770e-47e2-a701-2365c0d3a0e7/romain-dancre-doplSDELX7E-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - The Contract Let’s get down to brass tacks: You, the customer, need a contract. The business needs a contract. Do not, I repeat DO NOT work with any vendor or customer without one. First and foremost so you’re both clear on whom exactly you’re conducting business with (a person, an LLC, a group of DJ’s, etc.). I’m not about to have someone claim they thought they were working with me as an individual instead of my DJ Brand. Secondly, you need to know you’re both on the same page for what exactly your expectations are for one another. Just a few things to look for… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/a0f0fbe3-4e5e-4389-a2ac-b6a6e2adb946/brett-jordan-LPZy4da9aRo-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Communication How urgent are they in responding? Typically you should expect a DJ to be able to respond within a few hours, except on weekends. Certainly by the following business day at the latest. How good are they at keeping track of the topics you’ve asked them about? Are their responses thorough or do they seem a bit forgetful? Remember, you need someone reliable before anything else. Does it seem like they’re making you a priority? Are they transparent or a bit close-lipped? Do they answer your questions about price or do they dance around it a bit? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/a74c1034-cb7b-46cc-928f-5d503632b02f/icons8-team-yTwXpLO5HAA-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Planning How easy do they make it to plan out your event? Do they have any resources like a handy worksheet that clearly communicates your plans, or do you have to rely on their ability to take great notes out of your emails, phone calls, and texts. Do they even allow calls and texts? What’s the proper procedure for making plans? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/096d57e4-a2eb-4b18-ab5f-9771b6ae1781/mick-haupt-XTZHvQ9MUKI-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Insurance Anything can happen. It’s an unfortunate reality that accidents can always happen even to the most prepared people. In the event of something going wrong, do they have liability insurance? A lot of venues require it from their vendors anyways, so check with the vendor and communicate that with the DJ out the gate. That might narrow down your options too, to show you who’s prepared and who’s been gambling hoping nothing happens. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/8093734d-3913-49d5-8b45-ce76d54a335c/nathan-dumlao-lvWw_G8tKsk-unsplash.jpg Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Payment How and when do you pay them for their services? Here are some things you’ll want to know and ask for clarification on. Terminology: “Deposit” is an amount of money that you can get back if certain conditions are met. “Retainer”, which is more common, is an amount of money you do not get back. Sometimes not at all, and sometimes under very specific circumstances. It’s important to know, because a lot of vendors don’t know the difference and mean to say retainer but only know the word “deposit”. So really any time you see deposit, double check what exactly they mean by that, because a deposit is refundable. Methods: What kind of options do they have for payment? Zelle? Venmo? Credit cards? Autopay? Logistics: When is it due? A week before the event? On the day of? Are there discounts for paying in full in advance? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/dba91146-fff3-4bea-a3b0-09f11667391a/Skill.png Articles - How Do I Pick The Right DJ? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.notapanda.com/articles/vendor-master-list-djs monthly 0.5 2025-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d07a71da7ca15000136fc06/44779e83-ba50-48e0-bbd4-7fc4cc3b7c57/Circular+Profile+Pic.png Articles - Vendor Master List: DJs - Not A Panda It’s me!
