Top Questions Brides and Grooms Ask
Planning your big day in Charleston, SC or the Lowcountry? Whether you're saying "I do" at Magnolia Plantation, the Historic Rice Mill, or Folly Beach, having the right DJ can make or break your wedding experience.
Below are the most frequently asked questions couples ask when hiring a wedding DJ for both ceremonies and receptions in the Charleston area.
These insights are based on years of experience providing professional DJ & MC services for weddings in Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, Folly Beach, and beyond.
What should the customer know about your pricing
(e.g., discounts, fees)?
Each project, and event is different, but I do work to ensure that my pricing is fair, and inline with what others are pricing. I deliver strong value for the price given my background in radio, public speaking, and event hosting.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a DJ provider in the Charleston, SC area?
When looking to hire a Charleston DJ, keep these items in mind...
1) Experience
2) Quality of equipment
3) Music library
4) Willingness to meet and develop a strategy for the event before it occurs
5) Open and consistent communication
Do You Act as the MC Too, and What’s Your Microphone Style?
Absolutely. We MC your wedding professionally and clearly. Whether you’re hosting at The Cedar Room or Middleton Place, we balance classy announcements with crowd engagement—never cheesy, never over-the-top.
Have You Played Our Charleston Wedding Venue Before?
Chances are, yes! From The Gadsden House to the Daniel Island Club, we’ve performed at nearly every major venue in the Charleston area. If it’s new to us, we’ll schedule a walkthrough and coordinate with your planner.
Can You Handle Ceremony Audio (Music + Mics) at Outdoor Charleston Venues?
Yes. From marsh-side vows at The Island House to rooftop ceremonies downtown, we provide full ceremony sound coverage: wireless lapel mics, discreet speakers, and cue-timed processional songs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once the contract has been signed and sent back to me with the 50% non-refundable retainer, I email log-in credentials to access the planning form, timelines, and my music library.
All of this takes the new customer through a step-by-step process in planning the event.
For all my clients, I offer complimentary planning sessions, both in person and over the phone, to review the agenda. I encourage open communication all the way up to the date of the event.
How Do You Keep the Dance Floor Full at Charleston Weddings?
We read the room and adjust on the fly. Whether you’re partying with locals or out-of-town guests at a reception in Charleston Harbor Resort or Upstairs at Midtown, we mix genres, take live requests (if allowed), and keep the dance floor packed all night.
Do You Offer a Contract and Have a Backup Plan in Case of Emergency?
Yes to both. Every booking includes a detailed contract outlining services, timelines, and cancellation terms. We also have a network of professional Charleston DJs on-call as backups—just in case.
Do You Accept Song Requests and Follow Must-Play/Do-Not-Play Lists?
We tailor every playlist to fit your vibe and preferences. Want classic Motown at a Dock Street Theatre wedding or all indie vibes at Harborside East? No problem. We also honor all do-not-play lists—your party, your rules.
