10 Reasons To Hire A Professional DJ
It’s that time of the year, when Bridal Show season is upon us…. and the subject of a professional DJ comes up.
Every year, it seems, couples have decided to take the risk and use “a friend of a friend” or the “cheapest” or worst, the “discount dj” with the “special offer” at the Bridal Show. It seems like booking a quality professional DJ is totally disregarded.
Let me be clear, the consensus of OUR clients seems to be that the “right” entertainment WILL make the difference for this once in a lifetime event.
So, if you’ve been out shopping for a professional DJ, with the assumption that every DJ is pretty much alike, and you find someone that is 1/2 the price of other area DJs…. this article is for you….
What a bargain…. BUT here’s what you might expect from them:
- They will probably not return your calls when you’re frantically trying to reach them 2 weeks before your wedding
- Your first dance? That will be the one song they were meaning to get, but they didn’t get around to it. Would you like to dance to something else?
- They have a website – but it’s been it isn’t much more than stock photos, a couple sentences worth of content and little else.
- They will hide their cheap poor quality gear behind a large self-promoting sign at your wedding.
- Their computer will lockup during your dance with your father. No backup – so please wait 5 minutes while it reboots.
- Wireless microphone? Yeah, it works, but you have to be standing right next to the DJ. All you hear is crackling when you try and use it at the head table for your toast.
- The DJ that had 10 years experience won’t be the one who shows up to your wedding – it will be his 16 year old son.
- Please be sure to stand right in front of the DJ speakers if you want to hear what is being said over the microphone. They have 15 year old speakers placed on the ground and not on speaker stands.
- Formal attire?….Isn’t a shirt and tie close enough?
- Oh, you said you DIDN’T want to hear the Electric Slide? They thought your guests would like it as well as all the other songs that you told them NOT to play.
So go ahead… book the cheapest DJ you can find… remember the old idiom: You Get What You Pay For!
