8 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a DJ

Here are 8 Questions to Ask Your Austin Wedding DJ

I’ve seen variations on this post before, and want to offer my own take on the topic of what questions to ask a DJ during the hiring process. I’ve been an Austin wedding DJ for many years, and the DJ for at least 1,000 weddings by now, and I’m happy to share some insights I’ve […]

Alyssa & Alex’s Wedding 11-2-24

Alyssa and Alex

I was back at Camp Lucy yesterday. I just DJ’ed a wedding there last month, and another in May, making this my third appearance there this year. As always, it was a great time. I started the day by providing microphones for the ceremony in Ian’s Chapel, while music was provided by a string duet from Terra Vista Strings. […]

Austin’s Most Interesting Wedding Venues

Austin is one of the largest cities in the United States, which means a great many weddings happen here every week. That translates into a surfeit of wedding venues, many of which I’ve been to as a wedding DJ. Usually, by the time a couple gets around to hiring their DJ they’ve already chosen their […]

Jordan & AJ’s Wedding 10-27-24

Sunset Cliff Resort

I love playing for couples like Jordan and AJ. They wanted to hear their own flavors of music, and they wanted me to avoid the overplayed wedding hits once dancing started, but they also understood that my job is to make people dance, and they gave me the freedom to do just that. Another plus […]

Katie & Daniel’s Wedding 10-26-24

Quince Lakehouse Austin

Yesterday’s wedding got off to a rough start, but only because I arrived to find there were two flights of stairs between me and where I had to set up. I didn’t know this ahead of time, because I was white-labeling for another company, and I guess they didn’t think to ask about stairs, and […]

Winnie and Max’s Wedding 10-19-24

Winnie and Max

I DJ’ed yesterday at the Allegro Wedding & Events Venue in Dripping Springs. It was my first time there, and I hope to be back soon. It’s an understated, modern yet rustic venue with a history to it, but a place that’s been kept up and modernized over time. It has everything needed for a wedding, including […]

Megan & Kevin’s Wedding 10-11-24

Steiner Ranch Steakhouse

Yesterday’s wedding was held at the Steiner Ranch Steakhouse in Austin. It’s a great place for a banquet of any sort, and an absolutely perfect place for a wedding. And I’m not just saying that because I was served a delicious ribeye steak last night! The wedding ceremony took place in a separate room, and I was […]

Deb & Andrew’s Wedding 10-5-24

Deb and Andy

I DJ’ed a wedding in Dripping Springs yesterday, at Camp Lucy, a venue at which I frequently perform. This was my third time playing there this year, and I’ll be there again next month. Happily, it’s a great venue. It’s easy to load in and out of the various event spaces, of which they have many, the […]

Hailey & Nakia’s Wedding 9-28-24

Hailey and Nakia

Not only am I an Austin wedding DJ, I’m a Dripping Springs wedding DJ, too. Case in point, I was at Ma Maison yesterday, a beautiful wedding venue in Dripping Springs, and one at which I often play. The day started with an outdoor ceremony in the grove, followed by cocktails on the trellis, and capped with […]

Carlly & Christian’s Wedding 9-14-24

Carlly Christian

Yesterday I DJ’ed a wedding in Austin at the Hudson Bend Ranch. This was my first time playing at the venue, and it was a great first experience. The owner is laid back and easy-going, the load-in is very easy, and the property is pretty. Everything was great, except for one minor thing: I had some […]
