WEDDING DJ MELBOURNE

Absolutely Not 🙂 Our MCs deliver professional MC services—no stand-up comedy routines here! While we highly recommend dedicated comedians for such entertainment, our focus is on professionalism, respect, and engaging with guests to ensure a seamless event. If you opt for a stand-up comedian MC, our DJs are ready to collaborate. We’ve teamed up with talents from the Melbourne Comedy Festival and renowned industry names to ensure we deliver outstanding outcome.

You can typically find an MC for basic announcements for between $80 and $100 per hour. MCs bundled with a DJ are often more cost-effective to hire than if you were to hire them separately. However, if you’re solely hiring an MC, keep in mind that they may rely on you or the venue to provide microphones and speakers, which could incur additional costs. If your MC is providing all the equipment, expect to pay a significantly higher price, plus any related travel expenses etc.

1. First and foremost, Wedding DJs should understand the vision the couple has for the night. Whether they desire an intimate gathering or a lively party atmosphere.
2. Secondly, DJs should leverage their experience to guide couples, identifying any potential gaps in the run sheet or vision for the night.
3. Thirdly, they should prioritize playing music preferred by the couple that complements the atmosphere. This includes smoothly transitioning between genres and ensuring all party favorites are played, especially for weddings with a diverse guest list.

1. Discuss your music preferences: Sit down with your partner and talk about the type of music you both enjoy and want to hear at your wedding. Consider the tunes you grew up with and the songs you danced to while growing up.

2. Consider your guests: Think about the age range and musical tastes of your guests to ensure a diverse playlist that caters to everyone.

3. Choose special songs: Decide on any special songs you want to include, such as your first dance song, parent dances, and any other significant moments.

4. Create a must-play list: Make a list of songs that you definitely want the DJ to play during the reception. Also, consider adding do-not-play songs.

5. Include preferred genres: Specify any preferred genres or artists that you want to be incorporated into the playlist.

6. Allow for guest requests: Decide whether you want to allow guest requests and let your DJ know.

7. Be flexible: While it’s essential to have a list of preferred songs, be open to your DJ’s expertise and suggestions to keep the dance floor packed and the energy high throughout the night.
