Frequently asked questions
Do I need to provide equipment or a playlist?
A professional DJ brings their own sound and lighting; you don't supply gear. Share must-play and do-not-play lists and any special songs (first dance) in advance — good DJs blend your requests with reading the room rather than playing a rigid list.
Should the DJ also be the MC?
Many wedding DJs double as MC — making announcements and running the timeline. It's convenient and cost-effective, but confirm they're comfortable on the mic and will coordinate with your planner. For formal events, a dedicated MC plus DJ gives a more polished result.
How far in advance should I book a wedding DJ?
Good wedding DJs book out 6-12 months ahead for popular dates, especially summer Saturdays. For a casual party, a few weeks can be enough. Book early for peak season, and expect to pay a deposit to hold the date.
What's included in a DJ's fee?
Typically: performance hours, sound system, setup and pack-down, and music curation/requests. Extras that add cost: MC/hosting duties, dance-floor lighting and uplighting, extra speakers for a ceremony or second area, and travel. Get the inclusions listed so quotes compare like with like.
How much does it cost to hire a DJ?
Rates depend on event type and hours. A few-hour party DJ is the cheap end; a full wedding DJ with a proper setup and MC duties is mid-range; a premium wedding package adding lighting, uplighting and multiple areas is the top. Peak-season weekends and big cities push prices up.
What's the deposit and cancellation policy for a DJ?
Expect a deposit (often 20-50%) to secure the date, with the balance before or on the day. Read the cancellation and refund terms, and get the booking in a written contract covering hours, price, setup time and what happens if they're ill. A verbal-only booking is a risk.
What insurance and licensing should a DJ have?
Reputable DJs carry public liability insurance (many venues require it) and, where equipment safety testing applies, PAT-tested gear. Music licensing for public performance is usually the venue's responsibility, but confirm who covers it for a private hired space.
What does a wedding DJ cost in Hong Kong?
Party DJs run HK$3,000-11,000 and full wedding coverage HK$6,000-20,000; premium packages with lighting reach HK$12,000-40,000. Hotel-banquet weddings and peak dates sit at the top.
