REQUEST AVAILABILITY & PACKAGES
About Hunter Valley Wedding DJs
The Hunter Valley has 4 types of wedding DJs to choose from. All offer a professional disc jockey service for your wedding ceremony & reception with packages for either or both, and come with slightly different inclusions. Here's a service guide to help you choose your ideal wedding DJ in the Hunter Valley:
1. Background DJs
A background DJ plays low key music to create the preferred ambience within a set space. Background DJ sets are ideal for pre wedding canapés, cocktail receptions and sit down meals. A background set will be provided by any party DJ as part of the hours booked in your DJ hire package.
A background DJ is an ideal choice for weddings that do not involve a dance floor. DJ hire for background ambience only is about $200 cheaper than the standard Hunter Valley wedding DJ.
2. Party DJs
A party DJ is your typical wedding disc jockey who plays a non-stop song list fading between tracks to keep guests entertained and on the dance floor.
A typical wedding DJ will offer a combination of background music for the first part of your wedding reception during cocktail & canapés or sit down meal. They'll then play your preferred first dance song if you're having one before cranking up the volume and vibes for party time.
3. DJ Soloists
Wedding DJs who are described as soloists offer the standard DJ wedding experience with the addition of an instrument. In the Hunter Valley, wedding DJs in the soloist category include vocalists and a saxophonist.
Your entertainment package will include a 5 - 6 hour DJ set with live music performed by the DJ to backing tracks where appropriate. Soloists add a live music atmosphere to weddings and are similarly priced to party DJs.
4. DJ Booth
A DJ booth is a stylised set up that packs all the technical equipment used by a wedding DJ into a tidy, modern and neat arrangement that fits within your wedding location. DJ booths are typically styled to suit your wedding theme and might include rugs, neon lights, stylish stacking boxes, plants or specialised furniture.
