Good to know

Straight answers for the shortlist stage.

When should we book a Melbourne wedding DJ?+

Six to twelve months is a useful window for popular dates. Shorter lead times can work when you are flexible on the individual DJ or date.

Should our wedding DJ also be the MC?+

It can simplify coordination, but the skill sets are different. Ask to understand their speaking style and how much MC work the package includes.

Can we give the DJ a full playlist?+

You can, but a mix of must-plays, do-not-plays and examples usually gives a skilled DJ enough direction to read the room and keep transitions natural.

Can PickWed match our music taste?+

Yes. Your brief can record genres, key songs, crowd mix, MC needs and the dance-floor energy you want.
