Dj help
Looking for advice on getting started as a wedding DJ
Hey everyone! I’m looking to start getting into wedding DJing and could use some advice from people who have already been doing it.
I have experience DJing and I’m comfortable with the music/equipment side, but the wedding business side is pretty new to me. My biggest question is: how did you land your first few weddings?
I’d love advice on things like:
Where you advertise or find couples looking for DJs
Whether sites like WeddingWire/The Knot are worth it when you’re starting out
How you built a portfolio before having weddings under your belt
What you charged for your first few weddings
Anything you wish you knew before DJing you’re first wedding
I’m not looking to jump in unprepared. I want to learn the wedding side of the business, put together a professional setup, and make sure couples are getting a great experience.
Any advice on getting those first 5–10 bookings would be really appreciated. Thanks!
