DJs

An Indian wedding invariably involves music, dancing, and spellbinding entertainment. From a pool party, Sufi Night, rocking sangeet to a musical mehndi, everyone needs professional DJs to set the right mood and get those feet on the dance floor. So, how do go about selecting the perfect DJ for your wedding functions? Check out our handy guide with tips and points to keep in mind.

EXPERT TIPS TO PICK THE BEST WEDDING DJs

Although your wedding venues/ planners might suggest DJs for your celebrations, you can still opt for vendors that are not on their list.

• Discuss with your friends and acquaintances about their preferred DJs and see which ones match your preferences.
• Research about DJs online and look for their mixes and performances on YouTube.
• Once you know your needs and have your budget fixed, check for DJs on WeddingSutra.com.
• Write to us in case of queries and get help from our team of experts.

THINGS TO DISCUSS WITH YOUR DJ BEFORE SEALING THE DEAL

• Ask them about the different types of music that they play/perform and ensure that you are well in sync with their playlists.
• Check if they need any extra power supplies or technical assistance.
• Request them if they want you to share a list of your favorite tracks/songs with them in advance.
• Ask them if they accept music requests from guests.
• Check if they aren’t playing for any other wedding/event on the same day and are available throughout the event.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. What functions can I hire a DJ for?

You can get a DJ for every possible function from the engagement to the reception. Although most people choose to book a DJ only for the sangeet and reception, you can choose to have one on any of the days or events, such as a pre-wedding pool bash or an after party, as per your choice.

2. Can I use my phone, or a pre-loaded tracklist and speakers to play the music instead of a DJ?

While playing your own pre-loaded songs on speakers work for occasions like birthday parties or an intimate wedding function hosted at home, we would recommend you to hire a professional DJ for your key wedding functions. Although other options might help you save those extra bucks, a professional DJ with a proven track record will ensure a successful event all your guests are sure to enjoy.
