Newcastle Wedding DJ Hire Guide
Wedding DJs in Newcastle NSW come in 4 varieties with varying package inclusions. Here's a DJ guide to help choose the ideal disc jockey for your Newcastle wedding:
1. Newcastle Background DJs
Background DJs create an ambient vibe playing low key music that sets the mood for mingling events. Hence background DJs are ideal for cocktail events and wedding receptions without dancing. A stand alone Background DJ costs about $200 less than a Newcastle DJ for dance floor events.
Dance floor DJ's usually include background sets as part of their DJ hire packages, to set the mood for the first 1 - 2 hours of your wedding reception when canapés are being served. This means you only have to hire one DJ for your wedding entertainment.
2. Newcastle Wedding DJ

Most DJs will ask your preferred music genre, artists and song types and will put together a play list in that theme for you. Packages typically include 4 - 6 hours of tracks and rates in Newcastle start at $800 - $1,600.
3. Newcastle Soloists
A wedding DJ with the title Soloist is a versatile artist who offers live music as part of their sets. In Newcastle, DJ soloists include a saxophonist and vocalists. DJ hire packages include 5 - 6 hour sets that incorporate live music where appropriate and usually involve digital backing tracks.
