Orlando Wedding DJs

It All Depends on What You're Looking for in a Wedding DJ

While your wedding budget will be a factor as you choose your wedding vendors, Orlando DJs tend to charge about the national average so you won't have to make any major adjustments to your budget unless you're looking for a wedding DJ service that can provide extras like lighting design, multimedia presentations, or a photo booth. Sometimes you can negotiate for lower prices if you are getting married on a weekday - you never know until you ask!

Because so many couples tie the knot in Orlando, make sure you start researching wedding DJs as soon as possible. Wedding vendors in the area tend to book up quickly! Whatever kind of music you like best, you should look for DJs who seem engaging, professional, and excited to make your reception a success. If they're acting as MC on your Big Day, your DJ will be the one to introduce you and your wedding party, make transitions between special events easy for guests to follow, and set the mood of the reception - so find someone who has a big personality and matches your style.

Do you love live music? Some couples have a DJ and a wedding band so the music never stops.

Make a List of Questions to Ask Orlando Wedding DJs

Interviewing Orlando DJs for your wedding reception can be a little stressful for couples who haven't conducted interviews before. You can make the process less intimidating by creating a detailed list of questions for DJs and DJ services to answer. Start by asking about availability, the base price and fees, familiarity with your venue, and performance style. Once you get information about these important details, you can ask about what kind of music they usually play and inquire about their equipment. Always make sure you get references (not just testimonials) so you can talk directly to past clients.

As you interview wedding vendors, keep track of your favorites in a wedding vendor manager or on a spreadsheet. That way you know which Orlando DJs you loved and which didn't make the cut.

Your Wedding DJ Will Keep Your Reception Moving

The best Orlando DJs don't just pack the dance floor. Wedding DJs keep your reception flowing smoothly from showcase moment to showcase moment by choosing music that gets guests excited or lets them know it's time to sit down - and by making sure guests know special events like the cake cutting are happening soon. As you move from one wedding planning to-do to the next, make sure you create a detailed timeline of events for your DJ. You can also help your Orlando wedding DJ by giving them a pronunciation guide with your VIPs' names.
