Questions To Ask A Wedding DJ

• Will I know my DJ?
• With Memories Productions, definitely yes! We recommend that you meet or conduct a phone interview with your DJ when booking with us to make sure that he is the right fit. If you decide to hire Memories Productions, you will meet with your DJ again, in person, about 2-3 weeks prior to your wedding date to discuss the agenda for the evening, introductions and announcements to be made, and your musical preferences and song selections. After meeting with your DJ you can be confident that they understand your expectations for your special night. With many DJ companies you may not meet or speak to your DJ until your wedding date or, at best, a couple days prior. Unfortunately, at this point there is little that you can do if you do not feel they are the right DJ personality for you.
  
• How large is your music library and what songs do you play?
  
• The Memories Productions music library contains over 20,000 songs from the 1920's to what's currently hot on the charts. You may review our Online Music Database. When it comes down to it though, it’s not the number of songs in our library that matters most. Rather, it’s the 100 or so songs that are played on the night of your wedding that will make it a great party…or not. Because it is your wedding, you may have as much input into the song selections as you would like. In addition to providing Must Play and Play If Possible song lists, we recommend that you compile a Do Not Play song list as well. Also, when building your play list, should you not be able to find certain songs in our database, just can let us know and we will be sure to get them by your wedding day.
  
• What type of audio equipment do you use?
  
• At Memories Productions we only use high-quality professional DJ equipment by well-known manufacturers such as Pioneer, QSC, Denon, Numark, JBL, and Bose. We have sound systems that are suitable for virtually all size audiences. Additionally, in the unlikely case of an equipment failure, we always have back-up equipment, on-site, at every event.
  
• Do you provide a lighting set-up?
  
• We have several lighting options ranging from simple color-changing LED lighting, to special effect lighting, to monogram lighting. When we meet with you prior to your wedding day we will discuss with which one, if any, would be most appropriate for your reception. There is no additional cost for any of our lighting packages.
  
• What will my DJ wear?
  
• Our DJs typically wear a dark colored suit for wedding receptions, unless other attire is more appropriate.
  
• What time will my DJ arrive to set up at the reception hall?
  
• Our DJs generally arrive 90 minutes prior to the start time, to ensure set-up is complete, all storage crates are hidden, all wires taped to the floor, and sound checks are completed so the DJ area will look as presentable as the rest of the room when your first guest arrives.
  
• What if my DJ is sick on the date of my reception?
  
• In the 20 years we have been in business, we have never missed an event. If, due to an emergency situation such as illness, your DJ is unable to perform on the date of your wedding, we will provide a replacement DJ of similar experience and style. The replacement DJ would be prepared with all of the reception information from our planning meeting several weeks prior (i.e. timeline, song lists, etc.).
  
• Do you have insurance?
  
• Yes, we carry a policy that provides $2,000,000 of general liability insurance.
  
• What do you charge?
  
• At Memories Productions our pricing is simple and reasonable, with no hidden costs. We only charge for our performance hours, not travel time, set-up/take-down time, customer meetings, dance lights, wireless microphone, etc. These are our current rates for weddings receptions:

Also, if the ceremony takes place at a different area of the venue as the reception (i.e. an outside area), we can provide a second sound system for additional charge for ceremonies is $200.

• We encourage you to speak to our references. Upon request we will provide you with the contact information for several couples who can provide feedback on the quality of our performances at their weddings.
