Thinking That All DJs Are The Same
There are many, many folks that can pony up the money for really
nice equipment and are capable of plugging in and playing some tunes,
but very few who have enough experience in entertaining an audience
and organizing the smooth flow of a reception to fill the thimble. This is
where you must be very tough minded and asking your prospective DJ
where the experience comes from. It is a mistake to think that a person
who has only “club” or “corporate” experience can get through a wedding
reception.
An inexperienced DJ may be able to get through a simple birthday party or
backyard gathering, but where they really can wreak havoc is at a wedding
reception where timing, organization, and flow are vitally important. Be sure
to obtain a list of wedding reception specific references. The best advice I
can give you is that whatever DJ or company you hire, you better be sure
that there is someone there who has a strong track record and fundamentals
of performing wedding receptions.
