There are plenty of ways to make your event special – and we know it’s worth spending time thinking about how to ensure your schedule of events and the energy and entertainment are in sync so all attendees have a great time. Hiring a wedding DJ is imperative to make this happen.
A great event DJ can get the party started and keep it going as long as your event lasts. Thankfully, finding professional DJs in San Diego, Oceanside, Escondido, Temecula, CA, and nearby areas is easy with Complete Weddings + Events on the job! We’re passionate about connecting people with the right DJ – and handling the details so everyone can enjoy the event!
San Diego has a high-energy social scene with tons of music and arts. Our DJs work on many of these events and bring a wealth of experience to big corporate events, Gaslamp Quarter weddings, fundraisers, school dances, and Bat mitzvahs. Let us make your special event unforgettable!
You’ll make many decisions when planning your event, but few are as important as which DJ you hire. Clients come to us in search of the best DJs in San Diego because we know the value of a great disc jockey. The ideal DJ can identify the room’s mood and play tunes to break guests out of their shells whether that’s at a wedding reception or corporate event. This is a true talent – not just anyone can elevate a party.
Your party should be one-of-a-kind, so you should also consider what planning decisions you want to make to fulfill your unique needs. Good DJs know the soundtrack for a wedding will sound different than the playlist at a corporate event, so it’s smart to ask each DJ about their goals and strategies for your party. Here are some other points to consider when chatting with potential hires:
Consider the mood you’re hoping to achieve for your event. Maybe you’re imagining a chic affair where music adds to the scene rather than steals the focus – a corporate events DJ can master this challenge with ease. Perhaps you’re hoping to dance the night away and need infectious tunes to get folks out of their chairs. A wedding and event DJ will know exactly the right music to play. Whatever you’re imagining, it’s a good idea to ask contenders how they’ll set the mood.
You wouldn’t go to a men’s barber for an eyebrow wax – why hire a DJ who has never worked your type of event before? These professionals are talented, but their background and experience level will directly influence your party’s vibe. When considering different DJs in the San Diego area for your event, ask about their comfort level with your preferred music style. Throw in a few questions about common challenges and how they would handle them, too.
Song requests are a lot of fun for guests, but they can inadvertently throw off the mood. It can be surprisingly jolting to have your Top 40 tunes interrupted by a throwback jazz song requested by your uncle. Ask your DJ prospects about their policy on song requests and make sure it aligns with your vision. It’s also a good idea to give them a list of songs you absolutely don’t want to hear at your event, and any special songs you need played before the party ends.
Some large DJ companies will send out an entirely different person to work your event than the DJ you originally interviewed. Other times, they’ll send out a small team of people to work at your party. When you’re discussing your options, make sure you understand exactly who to expect and when to expect them. Also, be sure to ask about what safety nets are in place if your DJ suddenly can’t make your party.
High-quality DJ equipment doesn’t have to be bulky, but it can be – especially if they plan to bring lights, speakers, and other staging tools. Ask about the technical needs of your DJ and be sure you have enough square footage allotted for their setup. While you’re at it, ask about the number of electrical outlets they’ll need access to, too. The last thing you want is to be scrambling for extension cords on the day of your party!
