So your Wedding day is on the way and you want to really ensure that you have a memorable Wedding time. Just 5 quick tips from a Toronto DJ, Bob Hawkins, to help ensure your Wedding entertainment will be a time of wonderful memories for you and your spouses family and friends.

Tip 1. The important things to help you find a Professional Disc Jockey and why having a professional DJ is significant. Questions to ask include…. what happens if the Disc Jockey becomes ill on your big day? Ask what their their policy is, if their equipment should fail on that all important date? One thing a professional service always has, is a backup plan for both equipment as well as experienced people on standby until the completion of the last function.

When seeking a DJ for your wedding or other big event, be sure to ask What their policy is, if the equipment fails?
Or what happens in the event that the Disc Jockey becomes ill on your big day? A professional service has backup equipment available and experienced people on standby until
the completion of the last function.

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. Avoid all temptations of trying to save a few bucks by hiring a best Friend or inexperienced neighbor to handle your Wedding event. Hey, it has happened so just a word to the wise. Think about it now rather than later. Yes it might save you a couple of bucks, but it could also cost you a friendship! Your special occasion will be conducted just once, and it needs to be conducted by an experienced DJ professional to avoid disappointment.

Tip 4. Remember when choosing a Wedding DJ to ask about the
selection criteria for 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 500 songs or can they provide you with a choice of thousands? All good questions to ask up front.

Tip 5. Ask the Professional 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.
