Memphis Wedding DJs

Putting the Music in the Birthplace of Rock 'n' Roll

If you're getting married in Memphis, leaving the music until the last minute is a big wedding planning don't. Most wedding DJs book up well in advance - possibly because they tend to charge a lot less than the national average. The same is true if you're booking a wedding band.

As you're choosing a Memphis wedding DJ or DJ service keep in mind that spinning tunes isn't all they'll do at your reception. Of course you want to make sure your musical vision is in alignment with that of your wedding DJ, but they will also be setting the mood at your reception and making sure that no one misses any of the special showcase moments. Your wedding budget will play a role your decision, but it's not the only factor you should consider.

Ask Away - Interviewing Memphis Wedding DJs

Finding a great DJ usually means asking a lot of questions. If you're intimidated, don't worry - the wedding DJ you're interviewing has probably heard every question there is. Most couples start by asking about availability, pricing, equipment, references, and performance styles, but you may also have questions about designing a custom playlist and extras like lighting, video, or photo booths. Ask away!

Keep track of the Memphis DJs who impress you in a wedding vendor manager or on a spreadsheet. That way, you won't lose anyone's contact information before it's time to make your final decision.

Smooth Transitions - What Your Wedding DJ Will Do

On the day of your wedding, your DJ will have studied the order of events you created as part of wedding planning and will have all of the music that you requested ready to play. As guests arrive at the reception venue, your DJ will already be setting the mood with music. It's unusual to think of a wedding DJ as akin to a coordinator but they do so much to keep everyone engaged and entertained while making sure that no special moments are forgotten.
