Wedding DJ FAQ
I know there are plenty of stressful moments when planning a wedding – collaborating with your DJ shouldn’t be one of them. I’ve created a handy FAQ section to answer most of your questions. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Drop me an email.
I can’t wait to help.

As little as four feet wide.
Once you’re ready to book, I’ll send you a digital contract for review.
I can handle announcements with ease.
Yes. I’ll connect with your musician in advance to discuss specifics.
On the day-of your wedding, you can expect the following:
- I’ll arrive at least 3 hours before guest arrival to setup and prepare for your celebration.
- I will align with your maitre’d/wedding planner to review the run of show.
- While timelines do fluctuate, I can easily accommodate any sudden changes on the fly.
- I will gracefully handle your formalities of choice (if any), including announcements, introductions, speeches, toasts, special dances and anything in between — all of which will be communicated to your vendors and maitre’d.
- Relax and enjoy every moment.
- Expect an awesome dance party!
Your final payment is due two weeks prior to your wedding. Check, Venmo and Zelle are acceptable forms of payment. You can also fulfill the balance on your wedding day (cash only) before the contracted start time.
I have a good grasp on various cultural traditions and customs. However, I gladly welcome your specific requests.
I wear a well-fitted suit but can easily adapt to any specific attire.
If it’s okay with you, I will gladly accept requests that align with your musical tastes.
I do not play pre-mixed music sets. Each and every wedding celebration is beat-mixed and curated live to ensure originality and customization.
You have complete control of the music. Once you provide me with your taste(s) in music, I can easily fill-in the blanks.
I approach things very organically by knowing what to play and when to play it. The power of the music speaks for itself.
My approach is simple. I do not takeover the spotlight.
I’ll artistically mix your palette of music while reading the room. This is your wedding and I play what you want to hear. It’s not about me — it’s about you and your love.
If needed, I will gracefully conduct announcements and provide the perfect combination of fun and class.

I own and provide all of the necessary equipment, including wireless microphones (which can be used for a toast, blessing or any special announcements), speakers and everything else in between. The equipment is professional grade, modern and minimal in size for setup.

I will arrive and setup at least three hours before your guests arrive.
Setup and breakdown typically takes about 40 minutes.
Although I have experience performing at a large number of different venues throughout the tri-state area, (check out the list here) it’s very possible that I have not had the opportunity to perform at your venue. This is not uncommon.
I’ll connect directly with your venue to review logistics, including floor plans, load-in, timelines, etc. I got your back.
