"My wife and I did not take the task of selecting a DJ too lightly. It was important for us to have exceptional quality of service, professionalism etc, given the fact the DJ would set the mood for our entire reception. DJ Greg Young exceeded what we consider the highest of standards. Greg incorporated the latest in technology to allow for easy song selection prior to our wedding, an open ear should we have any concerns up to our wedding day and attention to detail. Our family dynamics may have thrown other DJ's, but Greg seamlessly incorporated special recognition into a evening of non-stop dancing. We interviewed about 5-6 other DJ's prior to selecting Greg, and from our perspective, he was in another league of professionalism and class. The other key attribute of Greg's services was his ability to read our guests, staying in tune to music likes of both an older and younger generation. We highly recommend Maine Event Entertainment and DJ Greg Young."

"Greg was a true professional from begining to end. He was quick to respond to emails and the online planner made things MUCH easier. Greg lets you "run the show" as far as setting the schedule for your event and selecting music etc. yet is quick to step in with advice and suggestions. His selection was perfect and he kept the dance floor busy all night.
All of my guests loved his personality and style - could not recommend him enough!"
- Kerri and Carlin
"Maine Event Entertainment was absolutely amazing. Greg helped me every step of the way. He was completely professional and kept everyone entertained the entire time. I can't even begin to say how many people commented on how perfect the music was. Even my parents (who always have something negative to say) said the music was perfect and that they wanted him to keep playing for another hour! I wouldn't recommend anyone else besides Greg to be your DJ."
- Ashley and Zach
"We heard after the reception that Greg was more nervous about doing this reception than he had any other that he had previously done. You would never have known it. We had a hawaiian-theme reception and Greg did a great job getting music for our theme for our dinner music. We have heard from many of our guest and the staff that this was one of the most fun receptions they have seen in a long time. Greg did an awesome job keeping our guest on the dance floor. We had many young children at our reception and they loved the Chicken Dance and everyone young and old enjoyed the Cha-Cha Slide. We really had a terrific day. Greg helped to make our reception a memorable event."

"Greg was an amazing DJ for our wedding on Peaks Island, ME. He was very professional, easy to talk to and work with. He was flexible, and accommodating. He worked with us to make our day amazing, and it was! Greg played wonderful music, he made sure everyone at all age levels was taken care of. People raved about the great music selection. He had fun oldies up to the latest hits, and he knew when to play them and how to keep people on the dance floor! That was so important to me, and he did it wonderfully. Most of all, whenever me or the groom had a request, he played it immediately which was a lot of fun, especially as the night went on! We would just call out a song and it would play next, it was like having our own dance club. We had a blast and didn't stop dancing all night! He also did a great job of announcing events like the special dances, cake cutting, etc. He made sure everyone knew what was happening, but not in an overpowering way. Very professional. He made everything flow very smoothly. We also had a few extra speeches, and some games we wanted to play and he was very helpful in accommodating that. We would definitely book Greg again for another event, and we very highly recommend his services!"

I would highly recommend Maine Event Entertainment to every bride and groom. We were very pleased with his services!"

Top Five Qualities to Look For in a Wedding DJ
Your wedding DJ is responsible for most, if not all of the entertainment at your wedding reception, so it’s important you hire no one but the best. No matter where you live, there are talented DJs available when you need them at a price point you can afford. On top of recommendations from your peers, an online search of reputable agencies will provide you with a host of terrific DJs to consider.
Your wedding DJ is responsible for most, if not all of the entertainment at your wedding reception, so it’s important you hire no one but the best. No matter where you live, there are talented DJs available when you need them at a price point you can afford. On top of recommendations from your peers, an online search of reputable agencies will provide you with a host of terrific DJs to consider. Pick at least two of them to interview and carefully consider each of these five qualities to help you find the best fit for your wedding:
1. Personality – Within a few short minutes, you should be able to gage whether or not the DJ has a personality you can work well with. Are they affable? Upbeat? Witty? Humorous? Do they sustain good eye contact and speak clearly? Do they make you feel at ease? Do they seem genuinely interested in your wedding reception and eager to learn as much about you and your guests as possible? If they make you uncomfortable in any way during the interview, chances are they will do the same for your guests, so don’t be afraid to follow your instincts on this one.
2. Knowledge – You’ll know right away that a DJ is knowledgeable when they can quickly name the title and artist of that hit song that you only know a few words to. In addition, they should be able to tell you in depth about all of their equipment from the wattage of their speakers to why they chose to work with one brand of mp3 player over another, or how a certain program on their laptop is perfect for beat matching and syncing, etc.
3. Reliability – All good DJs will provide you with a list of past clients upon your request. After you’ve obtained a list, call a few of them and ask about the DJs reliability. Were they punctual? Did they come prepared with all the right equipment and back up equipment in case of emergencies? Did they follow through on all of their promises and play all of their client’s requests?
4. Adaptability – You want a DJ that will listen to your needs, make note of all of your requests, and offer up ideas of their own that they feel will enhance the overall entertainment value. Contacting past clients and asking them if the DJ was able to adapt quickly to the crowd and the energy in the room will help you analyze this quality further.
5. Special Skills – Do a large number of your guests speak a language other than English? If so, hiring a bilingual DJ might be a wise decision. Will you want a colorful light show to heighten the overall visual experience? There are DJs available who can provide LED lighting systems, mirror balls, etc., upon request. Are there any ‘out of the ordinary’ activities you require your DJ to emcee?
Keeping these qualities in mind during the wedding coordinating process will ensure you hire the best wedding disc jockey available!
Hiring a professional DJ can make all the difference when it comes to the success of your event. Whether you’re planning your wedding, coordinating a school or corporate event, or just throwing a good old-fashioned party, you want to hire a DJ that will provide you with the best entertainment value to fit your needs.
Wedding DJ pricing. So, how much does a wedding DJ cost? This depends on how comfortable you are with the lighting, experience, equipment, music, and fun options. You should try unique things because your wedding is far from ordinary. This does not mean you need to break the bank with wedding DJ prices, but see what options are really worth the cost.
