When booking a professional DJ for your awards ceremony, there are a few things you’ll need to keep in mind. Here are a few tips to help you get started!

 Determine Your BudgetThis is one of the most important factors when booking a DJ, as it will dictate who you can afford.
Get an idea of how much you’re willing to spend before beginning your search.

• Decide What Style of Music You Want to Be Played

This will help narrow down your options and make it easier to find a DJ that’s a good fit for your event.
For example, do you want Top 40 hits? EDM? Hip-hop?
Before beginning your search, make sure you know what type of music you want.

• Consider The Size of Your Event

This will determine how many speakers and how much equipment you’ll need. If you’re expecting a large crowd, you’ll need to ensure the DJ you book has the necessary gear to accommodate everyone.
It’s also important to consider the size of the venue. It’s best if your DJ uses modern equipment to accommodate your needs.

• Check Out Reviews

Once you’ve narrowed down your options, take some time to read reviews from past clients.
This will give you a good idea of what to expect from each DJ. Ask for references and check out their online reviews to understand what others have thought about their work.

• Make Your Final Decision

• Make Sure They Understand Your Vision for The Day
  You should have a pretty good idea of the overall tone and feel you want for your wedding, and your DJ should be on board with that. They’ll likely play songs that don’t fit your vision if they’re not.
  
  
• Discuss Your “Do Not Play” List
  This is just as important as your "Must Play" List! There are bound to be certain songs that you do not want to be played at your wedding, so make sure your DJ knows these in advance.

​

• Trust Their Judgment
  Your DJ is the professional here, so trust that they know how to read a crowd and will make song choices accordingly. Of course, if you have any specific requests, feel free to let them know, but try to give them some leeway to choose what they think will work best.

​

• Be Prepared for The Occasional Curveball
  No matter how well you plan, there’s always a chance someone will request a song that doesn’t fit your vision or that you don’t like. So, be prepared to decline such requests politely, and remind your DJ in advance that they should feel free to do the same if necessary.

​

• Have A Backup PlanIn case of any unforeseen technical difficulties or issues with the music, it’s always a good idea to have a backup plan in place. This could be anything from having a Back-up computer, a Spotify playlist ready to go or having a flash drive with emergency songs.
  
  ​But this is not something you’ll need to worry about if you hire a professional wedding DJ. They’ll always have a backup plan ready in case something unexpected happens.
  By following these tips, you can rest assured that your wedding DJ will handle song requests in a way that works best for you and your guests!

​
           Professional Toronto wedding and event DJs like DJ XTC Entertainment are ever ready to handle any                    requests from your excited guests.
​
          We understand there will be different people at your wedding, perhaps each with their unique taste in                  music. And tending to all that will require experience and professionalism. Fortunately, we’re both highly               experienced and very professional!

​         We welcome the challenge because the variety of tunes we’ll play is enough to satiate any guest’s music               needs. So, regardless of their age or culture, we’ll have them dancing on the dance floor the moment we               start playing!

We can’t emphasize how important it is to have a great music at your wedding. Even if you have the most elaborate wedding day timeline, your guests will still have time to socialize before the ceremony, during cocktails and over dinner. But that also means they can get bored of those down times; don’t let this happen.
Instead, please work with your DJ to develop a wedding playlist that will keep them thoroughly entertained!

For the pre-ceremony, keep the music light. You can save the main party songs for later. Take a tour of your wedding venue to see what they have and what they don’t have. This is necessary because many wedding venues now have sound systems which means your DJ won't need to bring one. 

With that being said, the songs below are two that were released within the last five years and the third is a classic. They would be great additions to your wedding reception playlist!

*Raise Your Glass (Pink)
This song was inspired by a personal encounter and is excellent for same-sex unions. The song claims that anything is possible. It’s a celebration for people who feel different; left out from the crowd. Pink says love is possible between anyone and everyone.

*Billie Jean (Michael Jackson)
This may not be a recent song, but what makes a great wedding reception music? A song that everyone knows and can dance to, and Billie Jean is a perfect example of that! It’s a classic that will be played at weddings forever. Almost everyone knows the lyrics, and even if you’re not in the mood, the beat compels you to get on the dance floor! The song is a crowd-pleaser, regardless of whether your guests are old or young.

*Shape of You (Ed Sheeran)
Here’s another hit that you, and pretty much everyone else at your wedding, will recognize. Shape of You would definitely be in the top five if there was ever a wedding anthem list. It’s a dance-pop tune that was  played almost 7 million times in as a little as a day when released. Ed meets a girl at a bar in the song and is instantly drawn to her; sound familiar? *wink* *wink*           

A professional Toronto wedding DJ and entertainment company like DJ XTC Entertainment will make your reception the highlight of your wedding day! You’ll love every tune we play for you. We’ll throw a party that will have everyone dancing along throughout your wedding day!

Many people don't realize that the last dance song can be as important any other song played during a reception. Some DJs would even say that it is more important. It is the final note in the symphony of music that is the reception. It is the bow that ties everything up.
I personally like to get all the guests on the dance floor with the wedding couple. Some crowds circle the couple, some find a partner of their own and some just raise a glass and sing along. 
Here is a list of some of my favourite last dance songs. Let me know what you think. Are there any other songs that would be great send off songs for the newlyweds?

Gravity Class Entertainment's owner Neal A. McFarlane speaks about being the wedding entertainer of choice for couples of diverse backgrounds. thetorontoweddingdj.com

Most people who are not familiar with the art of DJing would say ​“A DJ is A DJ is a DJ”. 
Many don’t understand why DJ “A” charges $1 and DJ “B” charges $2 for essentially the same job,
playing music.Not only are there different skill levels but there are different experience levels as well. Yes, all DJs play music BUT

Some DJs only play music
Some DJs play music and can make announcements
Some DJs play music and are DJ MC’s comfortable with introductions, announcements and the like.
Then there are also those few DJs who are DJ Entertainers.
 
Those DJs hone their craft with practice and education to bring you, what I like to call, the complete package. A DJ Entertainer will not only play music & entertain your guests but also help craft and maintain the day’s timeline. They will be the liaise with the venue and other vendors to make sure that the whole day flows smoothly.
 
So the answer is NO, all DJs are not all the same! When you are looking into entertainment for your big day, find the DJ that is going to best execute the dream that you have for your wedding day.
