Searching for a GREAT DJ

Recommended Posts

Has anyone had any success in finding a good DJ? I'm in the process right now of searching for a DJ and having limited success in reaching one. Realistically, I'm looking for someone who can cover 80s, 90s, today, and Jazz and be able to transition seamlessly throughout all of them. For me, I've been to tons of weddings and find that the music can sometimes make or break a wedding reception, especially when the majority of attendees are your friends.

 

Given that we are having our wedding in Honolulu, I have extended the time we have at our venue to 11:30PM (as opposed to 10:30PM). I did that because I want as much time as possible with all of our guests and hoping that we can dance the night away. With that being said, music and a great DJ is very important to me.

 

Has anyone had success in this area? What have you allotted with regards to budget for a DJ? Would it be out of line to call the local radio station and ask the DJ to perform at our wedding (not looking for the morning voice, but just someone who can play the music and play it well). I have a friend who will serve as my MC, so I don't really need the DJ to speak a word at all.

 

Thank you for any responses/suggestions!

DJ's are very important and sometimes over looked. I've been to a lot of weddings, and great DJ's can rock a crowd from 10 people to 500 people. I think it really comes down to knowing your clients and playing the right music to get everyone up and dancing. Tony is great at this and is also highly recommended by most resorts and hotels here.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
