Advantages to Hiring a Professional DJ

Hayward Sound is a member of the
Canadian Professional Disc Jockey Association.

Professional DJ's are much more than somone who presses play.

If you have considered just plugging in your iPhone or computer to a speaker and selecting a playlist, DON’T! It will require your attention when it should be elsewhere. Your event, especially your wedding, is a very special day and you shouldn’t have to worry about running through a playlist, a phone dying or not picking songs that your guests will enjoy. It is our job to make sure that you can sit back and enjoy your wedding and that your guests are entertained the whole night.

The Professional DJ Association Symbol

Here are some of the top advantages to hiring a Professional DJ for your event or special day.

Less Stress

Less stress is probably the biggest advantage of hiring a professional DJ. A professional DJ brings their own specialized equipment so there’s no need for you to rent, set up and take down any sound equipment at your event.

Visual Experience

A good set up will not only include amazing music, but also interactive dance floor lighting. Everyone loves the visual effects lighting has on a dance floor.

Customer Service

Customer Service is important to us and we want your experience to be excellent right from the start. We promptly handle your questions, correspondences and provide written quotes in a timely manner. Before your event, you should have a face to face meeting with your DJ. Here you will go over all of the specific requests for your event which will give you a completely personalized experience. We want to get to know you and hopefully you will want to get to know your DJ.

Equipment Experience

A professional DJ will know how to troubleshoot and fix a problem before it arises. This will keep the flow going for your event. This also means they will come fully prepared with extra cords, batteries, lights – everything you need.

Music Repertoire

DJs have an abundance of different songs of all genres. The options are limitless when it comes to your specific taste. Everything from classic hits to the latest releases. DJs can make recommendations for any special songs you are considering for your event, help you make sure your playlist suits all of your guests, as well as ensuring any music on your DO NOT playlist is respected!

Guest Interaction

A DJ can do more than play music; they will be interacting with your guests if requested. They can announce the bridal party, offer up toasts and can even hold contests. Professionals also know how to “read a room.” This means they will be able to tell how the mood of the event is, when to play high energy music, take song requests or when to slow things down.

Non-Stop Entertainment

DJs do not take breaks when the music starts. Even when they need to step away, the music will keep playing. DJs knows when to change up the music to ensure people stay on the dance floor and can take requests and keep a smooth flow to your music all night.
