Questions to Ask When Hiring a DJ in San Diego

1. What is the #1 song on the Billboard Pop Charts right now?

This may sound like an off the wall question, but shouldn’t your wedding DJ really know? This is a great question to test a DJ’s music knowledge and to see if they are current with POP music trends.

2. Do you take requests at the event? Yes! However, please read these notes regarding special events.

For corporate/private parties:
There can be a clash of ideals between what you want to hear, what’s corporate policy, what the DJ knows the crowd will dance to, and what outlandish requests that some guests will request. We ensure that we will do our best to satisfy all guests at the party while maintaining the flow of what you want.

For weddings:
There can be a clash of ideals between what the Bride and Groom want to hear, what the DJ knows the crowd will dance to, and what outlandish requests that some guests will request. We ensure that we will do our best to satisfy all guests at the party while maintaining the flow of what the Bride and Groom ultimately want.
You can always provide a song list during our initial consultation and we can pass the list to the DJ ensuring we will do our best to have all song requests ready to go for your event.


3. Will the dance music be mixed?

Yes! We mix all dance music to ensure a flowing rhythm throughout the open dancing period. Let’s face it, when you are getting a groove on, you don’t want pauses between songs. You want a clean mix, as we do for all our songs.


4. Do you have dance lights?

Yes!. Lighting provides an atmosphere. With our dance lights, we aim them onto walls and ceilings to accentuate the party atmosphere rather than aim them at your eyes, blinding you.


5. Do you have a wireless mic and a back up corded mic?

Yes, we have wireless mics and they are reliable.. These mics are reliable and the most used in the business. The problem with wireless mics is if there are outside frequency interruptions caused by airports and boats, the mics will cut in and out. In this case, a corded mic will be provided.

6. Do we need to provide a table for your set up?

Although it is suggested, it is not mandatory. For weddings, we suggest it so that it matches the rest of your décor especially with matching linens. If necessary, we are capable of bringing a table with white or black linen.


7. How much deposit is required?

We take a 50% deposit up front to secure the date. The balance is due at the completion of the contract.


8. Do you have club experience?

All our DJs have club experience. This is important so that the DJ understands how to move crowds and build a vibe throught out the night.


9. How important is the DJ compared to my other vendors?

Time and time again, bridal magazine surveys reveal the following the wedding: 80% of guests respond that they most remember the entertainment above all other aspects of the wedding. And, not from coincidence, brides and grooms consistently report that they wish more priority had been given to their DJ in the budget and planning of the wedding. You can understand the importance of a DJ in any setting, private functions or corporate events. Nightclubs put heavy emphasis on the DJ for this reason.
