People often use a wedding DJ instead of a band because it makes everything simpler, and the cost is lower too. But how do you pick the right DJ when the choices out there are overwhelming?

Asking for Recommendations

Get started by asking your reception venue for referrals or recommendations. These people certainly know a few DJs from wedding receptions they've had in the past. And if you can find a DJ who has actually worked there many times before, that would be an advantage in terms of making things run more smoothly.

If you're going to use a DJ company, be sure you get their main guy - probably the owner - who should be more experienced and expensive but well worth your extra money. Your contract should reflect this specifically, including a condition that keeps them from making substitutions. Whoever you end up hiring though, make sure you get a confirmation one month ahead of the wedding, and then call again a week before. You can't be too sure.

You can also ask for wedding DJ referrals from people you personally know, such as family members, friends, coworkers, etc. Your caterer, limo company, photographer or tuxedo rental company may also provide some recommendations. Being in the same industry, these guys are the probably best to ask about one another.

If you're thinking about the cost of hiring a Greek DJ for your wedding, be prepared to shell out anywhere from $300 to $3,000, depending on how experienced they are, what equipment they use, etc.. Wedding DJs may present a lot of options, but no matter what, remember that your wedding reception is no amateur hour.

The bottomline consideration when it comes to choosing a wedding DJ is experience. There is a certain flow to wedding receptions that only experienced professional wedding DJs can handle. This may include nuances, such as a caterer arriving late, that can ruin everyone's mood, if not for a really really clever DJ who knows how to make people momentarily forget about the food.  

Of course, at the end of the day, you'll want a DJ who can give you and your guests all the best memories of this most important day of your life. And that's not going to happen if they hardly blend in with the crowd. Find a DJ who can develop great rapport with everybody at the reception.

People usually end up hiring the wrong DJs because of their own fault. And the best way to prevent this from happening is to begin your search several months in advance. This will afford you enough time to make a decision, maybe change your mind if you must, and then make it final.
