Toronto DJ Bob Hawkins share tips for finding a DJ

By Bob Hawkins


Your special day is coming and you want to ensure that you have a memorable Wedding event. Here are just a few quick tips from Toronto DJ Bob Hawkins, to ensure your Wedding entertainment will be a memorable time for you, your family and friends.

Tip 1. How to Seek out a Professional Disc Jockey and why. Part-time disc jockeys may rarely have the support network behind them to assist if a mishap occurs on the all important day of your reception. After all, you only plan to do this once and a professional DJ is always equipped with a backup plan as well as years of experience as a professional.

Note that often some inexperienced or part time disc jockeys rarely have a support network behind them to assist if any unplanned emergencies should occur on the day of your reception. You only plan to do this once and the benefit of a professional DJ gives you maximum peace of mind with a backup plan and years of experience.

Tip 2. Don't be afraid to ask each DJ you interview about the number of years they have been providing disc jockey services. Don't forget to ask them about their dress code? If your Wedding event is being done in Canada, you may want to ask whether the professional DJ is licensed with the Audio-Video Licensing Agency. Beware that if they are not licensed in compliance, your event could unfortunately end rather abruptly, should a licensing inspector find that your Disc Jockey is not licensed by the AVLA.

Tip 3. Beware of the temptation of Hiring a best Friend to DJ your event. If you ask a friend or relative to handle your function, you need to consider this: It could save only a little money, but it could also cost you a friendship! Your special occasion will be conducted just once, and it needs to be done with an experienced professional to avoid disappointment.

Tip 4. Choose a Wedding DJ by all means, but don't forget to ask about the selection of music. How many songs can they offer at your event. What types of Genres of music can they provide? Do they offer a service to pre-select a variety of your type of music? Do they carry a selection of only a few songs or can they provide you with thousands of choices? Better to ask sooner than later.

Tip 5. Ask the Wedding DJ if they can provide you with a few recent customer testimonials from their clients. This is another good thing to check. Any professional Disc Jockey who has been in business for several years will have a volume of solid client testimonials for you to review.
