When planning your wedding, there are countless decisions to make — from the dress to the venue to the cake. But one of the most important choices you’ll make is your wedding DJ. The right DJ doesn’t just play music; they set the tone for your celebration, keep the dancefloor full, and create memories that last a lifetime.
At Midlands Entertainment UK, we’ve provided professional DJs for weddings across Birmingham, Solihull, Tamworth, Coventry, Sutton Coldfield, and the wider Midlands. Here’s our guide to making sure you choose the perfect DJ for your big day.
🎧 1. Look for Experience in Weddings
Not all DJs are the same. A club DJ may be great at late-night sets, but weddings require someone who can:
-
Read the crowd and adapt music on the spot
-
Mix different genres to suit all ages
-
Coordinate with your venue and other suppliers
-
Handle special moments like the first dance, cake cutting, or bouquet toss
💡 Ask potential DJs how many weddings they’ve done and if they’re comfortable managing announcements and timings.
📋 2. Check Reviews and Testimonials
A DJ’s reputation is everything. Look for:
-
⭐ Customer reviews on Google or Facebook
-
📸 Photos or videos of past weddings
-
✅ Recommendations from venues or wedding planners
At Midlands Entertainment UK, we’re proud of our 5-star feedback from happy couples across the Midlands.
🎶 3. Music Choices Matter
Your wedding should reflect your style. A great DJ will:
-
Discuss your “must-play” songs in advance
-
Take note of “do-not-play” tracks
-
Build playlists for different parts of the day (ceremony, drinks, dinner, reception)
-
Be ready to take requests from guests without straying from your vibe
💡 4. Don’t Forget About Extras
These days, DJs are more than just music. Ask about additional services that can transform your venue:

📝 5. Ask the Practical Questions
Before you book, make sure you know:
-
Are they insured and PAT tested (for safety)?
-
What time will they arrive to set up?
-
How long will they play for?
-
Do they have backup equipment in case of issues?
A professional DJ will always answer these confidently.
