Frequently Asked Questions – Dorset & Hampshire Wedding DJ

How far in advance should we book our wedding DJ in Dorset?

We recommend booking your Hampshire wedding DJ as soon as your venue and date are confirmed. Popular dates (especially spring and summer Saturdays) often book 12–18 months in advance. Last-minute availability is sometimes possible, but early booking guarantees your date is secured.

​

Can we choose our own music for the wedding?

Yes — your wedding soundtrack should reflect you. We provide a detailed planning process where you can:

• Choose must-play songs

• List do-not-play tracks

• Select music styles for different parts of the day
  On the night, we also read the room and adapt to keep the dance floor full while respecting your preferences.

​

Do you take guest song requests during the reception?

We’re happy to take requests, provided they fit your tastes and the vibe of your wedding. Guest requests are filtered professionally to ensure the music stays aligned with what you want — no awkward surprises.

​

What music styles do you cover?

We cover a huge range of genres, including:

• Chart & party classics

• 70s, 80s, 90s & 00s hits

• Indie & alternative

• Rock & pop

• R&B, soul & funk

• Dance & club anthems

This versatility allows us to cater to guests of all ages at Hampshire weddings.

​

Do you provide music for the ceremony and drinks reception?

Yes. Our full-day wedding DJ service includes:

• Ceremony music (processional, signing, recessional)

• Background music during drinks reception

• Wedding breakfast ambience

• Evening reception DJ
  We supply all necessary sound equipment and work seamlessly with your venue and officiant.

​

Can you provide microphones for speeches?

Absolutely. We supply high-quality wireless microphones for speeches and announcements, ensuring clear sound throughout your venue — whether it’s a barn, marquee, or large manor house.

​

Do you need a lot of space to set up?

Not at all. Our setups are compact, neat, and adaptable. We tailor our equipment to your venue size and layout while maintaining excellent sound and lighting quality.

​

Are you insured and PAT tested?

Yes. We are:

• Fully insured with Public Liability Insurance

• PAT tested on all electrical equipment
  Many Hampshire venues require this, and we’re happy to provide documentation upon request.

​

What happens if our DJ is ill or there’s an emergency?

We have contingency plans in place. In the unlikely event of an emergency, a replacement DJ will be arranged, ensuring your wedding entertainment is never at risk. 

​

Can you work with our wedding venue and other suppliers?

Yes. We regularly liaise with:

• Wedding venues

• Wedding planners

• Photographers & videographers

• Bands & live performers

This coordination helps your day run smoothly and keeps everything on schedule.

​

How much does a Dorset wedding DJ cost?

​

How do we book and secure our date?

Booking is simple:

1. Check availability

2. Confirm your package

3. Secure your date with a booking fee
   We then guide you through the planning process leading up to your wedding day.

​

Why choose a specialist wedding DJ instead of a general DJ?

A specialist Hampshire wedding DJ understands:

• Wedding timelines

• Formal moments (first dance, cake cutting, bouquet toss)

• Crowd dynamics across generations
  This experience ensures your reception flows naturally and feels polished from start to finish.
