Questions to ask DJs

I'm coming home this weekend for a last minute trip to meet with DJs. I haven't started thinking of a question list and will be leaving in an hour or two to drive home. Were there any questions you guys thought were important to ask DJs? Any help would be appreciated!

Questions to ask DJs

We asked about his experience at LOB, what types of lighting he offered, one man vs two men, how many hours they'll be there for (you may need one for the ceremony??), and he drew out a timeline for us that was really helpful too! Good luck and have a safe trip! :)

Questions to ask DJs

We were also clueless! The DJ we had asked us what we liked/didn't like which was actually helpful because we never really thought of that before! And he asked us how we envision the timeline of our wedding to go, but I asked him to give us a sample because we weren't sure.

I also asked what type of lighting is included with the base package (to decide if it's necessary to book the upgraded packages).

Questions to ask DJs

We asked things like:

What type of packages do they offer?
what type of lighting do they offer?
We a have a do and don't play-list... will they follow it?
How much is the deposit?
Do they offer monogram lighting?
Do they offer snap shots that play throughout the night on the TVs that were included in our package?
Do they do slideshows?

Hope that helps, good luck!
