Not all disc jockeys are created equal: some like to talk more than others. This is fine if you want them to act as an emcee, but they don't need to blabber on constantly. This is one point you should definitely discuss with them before the event begins.

If you're looking for a good disc jockey for your wedding, don't neglect to check out wedding magazines and bridal websites on the Internet. Many of the DJs who advertise there are specialists in weddings, and know exactly what to do to keep your day special.

A good disc jockey should take pride in their work, which is why you should endeavor to separate the backyard DJs from the true professionals. One way to tell is by the price they offer. If they say they can do your show for $50-100, they're the backyard variety - or worse, they're lying.
