So you are getting married and wanting a DJ to be the night time entertainment???
Here are a few things that you should be aware of -
Wedding DJs are not an hourly service, let me explain why…
You’re not paying “£100 an hour.” You’re investing in an outcome, brought to you by years of experience, providing a service that involves weeks of planning, preparation, and personalisation long before i even arrive on site.
In fact, most of my work happens before your special day. From tailoring timelines to extensive music prep, specialty edits, rehearsing names, having venue knowledge, couple meetings/phone calls, equipment testing, bringing lighting and sound to your event space, and packing hundreds of pounds of gear onto the premises, followed by expertly setting up so that the night goes perfect without any hiccups …all before working an 6 hour gig to deliver exactly what you expected.
The unrealized truth is, the total package of a great DJ goes far beyond “just music and a few announcements for six hours.” It’s about getting the obvious details right.
You’re not renting DJ speakers you’re paying for the talent to deliver the goods - and that’s what really matters.
You’re not paying £100 an hour, you’re paying for someone who cares about your day as much as you do, and who delivers on every promise made. I understand there are no redos for this day and are thinking of that every minute until i go home while you’re celebrating with the people you care about the most on your wedding day.
Do I have awards ?? NO
Have I asked people to vote for me NO - wouldn’t be so shallow and it’s also not about me !!!
Have I been shortlisted for an award NO.
Have I ever made any social media posts to advertise what I bring to the table NO …….why ??? Because I don’t need to. I care about you and your guest remembering the special day/night for all the right reasons.
