Top DJ related questions

Depending on your budget and the DJ you hire, you may be able to get more than just music. Common extras include lighting, smoke machines and photo booths. If you want to keep costs down, you can request that they do not include these services.
Yes, most DJs will allow you to play certain songs or specific genres, but remember that you are hiring them for their expertise and they are more than just a jukebox. Some DJs specialise in certain music types, so check before you hire someone that they have a wide range in the type of music you're looking for.
Most DJs will have all their own equipment, but it's always best to check before you hire someone. At the very least, they’ll need access to a power point and, depending on the length of the party, may require a meal as they’ll be unable to take a break to eat.
It’s not impractical to give the DJ a dress code so that they fit in with the formality or theme of an event, however it’s best to give them plenty of notice for such requests.
If your party is going well, most DJs will be happy to extend how long they work. This may require payment when you make the request, but if they are booked elsewhere afterwards, they won’t be able to accommodate this request.

What do professional DJs do?

Although a DJ’s main role is to provide music for an event, there’s so much more to what they do. 

A DJ is a key part of any event. Someone who can read the room, pick the right songs and fill the dancefloor will keep a party going. Someone who doesn’t know those skills is little better than a Spotify playlist streamed through a phone. 

DJs don’t always need to be the centre of attention. They can be used to provide backing music at certain events, giving a certain atmosphere to proceedings without overpowering what truly is the central part of the day.  

Both a great and a terrible DJ hire will provide a night you’ll never forget – but if it’s your wedding day, you’ll want to remember it for all the right reasons.

Wedding DJs

On your big day, you want everything to be perfect. From playing the music for your first dance to making sure everyone enjoys themselves at the reception, the DJ and their music are a big part of your celebrations. Doing your research and getting the best wedding DJ you can goes a long way to creating a memorable experience. 

Birthday party DJs

Whether you’re hiring out a warehouse for your 30th or you’ve booked a room at the local pub, your own DJ can give your party an edge. DJs are perfect for themed parties too – just make sure that they know if there’s a certain decade they should be focusing on with their music selection. 

Corporate DJs

For corporate events, you should hire a DJ who will be reliable, who shares your brand’s values and has experience with this kind of work before. Speaking to the DJs who get in touch with you will give you a sense of their skills and attitude, and whether they’re a good fit for your event. 

Children’s party DJs

Children’s parties require different DJs altogether. Certain genres of music go out the window, songs with explicit lyrics are a no-no and, depending on the age of your children, a knowledge of The Wiggles’ back catalogue is a must.
