OVERVIEW
With over 16 years of experience, DJ Masters provide the finest and most dynamic DJs that Melbourne has to offer. Their team is committed to bringing your musical vision to life by creating the ultimate soundtrack to accompany each moment of your wedding day. They value the trust you place in them and are dedicated to conveying your celebration of love through music.
DJ Masters believe that the whole atmosphere of your wedding day festivities can be impacted by the musical design of the day. They’ve gained an incredible reputation in Melbourne for effectively reading the crowd and the mood of the room and acting accordingly to ensure that everyone is having a memorable time.
Through their professionalism, attentiveness, and prompt communication, expect your guests to feel comfortable enough to let go and have a boogie on the dancefloor while basking in the shared joy of your recently officiated marriage.
DJ Masters aspires to empower you through music and let the songs speak volumes of your love for each other. They are dedicated to your wedding vision and, therefore, allow you complete control, or as much input as you desire, over the music selections. Alternatively, you can express your ideas, and they’ll happily curate the ideal soundtrack for you.
“We had Tom as our DJ and MC. We have been to many weddings before with dead dancefloors and worried that would happen to us too, but I don't think there was one song played that didn't have people up and dancing to it. He played songs that all ages at the wedding enjoyed, and we were so happy to see our guests up and about right until the very end of the night. He also did a great job as our MC by getting everyone pumped up for our entrance and announcing all the other events throughout the night. Thanks Tom and DJ Masters for a great job.” - Amy W.

Highlights of working with DJ Masters:
“Fantastic service by Dean from DJ Masters. A few days beforehand, we set up a phone call, and Dean did his homework about our guests and what sort of music we liked. He also read the room really well, 'giving us hosts a nudge' as to how to keep the night moving, but was never intrusive or trying to take over - just what we needed on a night when we had other things to think about. Everyone at our wedding commented throughout the night that they loved the DJ/MC service, and we were all still dancing when he had to call time. Fantastic work and would definitely recommend DJ Masters to friends.” - James B.

FAQ
Everyone - everyone - loves music. And, everyone likes working around something meaningful.
Music can speak and represent us powerfully. We feel so deeply grateful to be able to work with music in a way that can bring greater personality and depth to the most meaningful events in the lives of our couples.
Are they well equipped with a full DJ team and back-up DJs/equipment in the event of emergencies?
Do they have experience playing at and working with your venue?
Can they provide examples of their work?
More importantly is your gut instinct: how organised, reliable and well-presented does the company seem? How attentive, personal and responsive are they?
Of course! You're the boss.
"Nutbush..Macarena..Gangnam Style...etc etc" Not really your thing? We totally get it.
We know how powerful music is in triggering and creating mood, so you can also use this opportunity to mention songs which are inappropriate or undesirable for any historic/personal reason. Like... that one song that always reminds me of the boyfriend before him... do I really want that played? Well maybe I do...!
Anything song, artist or genre on the Don't-Play list, will never be played, nor a remix, nor any cover or version requested by a guest - unless you approve it. Of course you can expect that we'll never be playing anything corny, or inappropriate, or clearly misaligned with the mood.
We know as performers that the the success of night reflects directly on us too! We go into every event with a mindset of consciously creating a night that will be remembered for decades to come.
A b s o l u t e l y - you have full control over the music, or you can leave it all up to us if you prefer.
"So... what do most couples do?"
Well, after over 2,500 weddings we find that most of our couples love to select their Key Moment songs (more on this later, and don't worry- we help you all the way!), and then provide us a list of songs/artists they love (anywhere between 5 songs to 80 songs, with highlights on the MUST-PLAYS) - and we then design the overarching music journey for the night, putting your songs in the perfect sequence, with a mix responsive to the night and constantly creating the best mood.
Totally, we have some videos on our website.
~ 80 songs.
In one 5-hour reception, we would typically play on average 16 songs per hour, which makes an average of 80 songs for the night. We also factor in special MC announcements and speeches.
Absolutely not - you can certainly choose all the songs if you'd like to, or alternatively you can leave it up to us, or anything in between.
Most couples provide us a short list (5 to 30 songs) of their absolute favourites, and then leave the rest to our expertise, and the best guest requests (if they've approved Guest Requests Allowed!)
We provide our MC services to you at no additional cost.
About 50% of our couples choose to use our MC services, while the remaining 50% choose to have a family member MC, or use the MC supplied by their venue.
Again, you have full control over guest requests.
During the planning with you, we ask you to select one of the following three options for Guest Requests:
1. Guest Requests Allowed!
2. Guest Requests Not Allowed!
3. Guest requests allowed - with Filters Enabled!
Needless to say, we are professionals and we know the success of the night reflects directly on us - we have 2 primary goals with the music, in the following priority:
1. Ensure that you are happy, and that we're only playing the songs/artists/genres/preferences you've approved, which are most important to you, and which reflect you guys - in balance with:
2. Our goal to always be maximising the number of bodies grooving on the dancefloor!
We have no difficulty combining these 2 goals - in reality that's the underlying essence and magic of our job. Determining precise balance of these 2 factors is something we expressly communicate on with you. In other words, some couples really don't mind what is played, as long as the maximum number of bodies are grooving. Whereas other couples have firm and precise ideas of the music they would like played, and rather that their selections are played over pleasing the crowd. We completely respect both; a fundamental part of our profession is to first clarify what's important to you, and then create the optimum entertainment.
Above all, we know how meaningful and important this celebration is - we're there to be at your service completely.
Your DJ doubles as your professional MC at no additional cost.
In this case, in the months leading up to your wedding we ask a series of relevant questions, including the names and order of those making speeches, the names and order of the bridal party, any special notes on pronunciation and how you'd like people to be announced. We also clarify things like the particular way you'd like to be announced to the room, any toasts you'd like us to facilitate, and all of the special announcements and housekeeping to be communicated (perhaps reminding people to use the photobooth, sign a guestbook, use the right #hashtag for all their social posts from the day etc etc).
We also get in touch with your venue in the weeks prior, to touch base, clarify any special new setup requirements, clarify anything on the runsheet, and any special housekeeping notes venue-related.
We like to be organised :)
1. The Entrance of the Bridal Party + Entrance of the Bride and Groom
2. The Cutting of the Cake
3. The First Dance
(4. The Father-Daughter/Mother-Son Dance)
5. The Throwing of the Bouquet
(6. The Tossing of the Garter)
7. The Farewell
This is just tradition - nowadays couples mix and match whatever feels good and whatever they think will be the most fun for the night they want to create. In other words, we've done very traditional weddings with all the key moments, and also very relaxed weddings which skipped them all! Everything/anything is allowed - it's your party.
Also, we find a trend that many couples increasingly choose not to feature the Father-Daughter Dance nowadays, and many couples choose only to have the Throwing of the Bouquet, rather than both the Throwing of the Bouquet and the Throwing of the Garter. We still see many receptions per year which feature either or both of these, but we just wanted to make clear the MOST important music moments.
1. The Entrance of the Bridal Party + Entrance of the Bride and Groom >> [1 song OR 1 song per couple]
2. The Cutting of the Cake >> [1 song]
3. The First Dance >> [1 song]
(4. The Father-Daughter Dance) >> [1 song]
5. The Throwing of the Bouquet >> [1 song]
(6. The Tossing of the Garter) >> [1 song]
7. The Farewell >> [1 for Guard of Honour, or 1-4 for Farewell Circle depending on number of guests]
Yes, absolutely.
We also perform for the wedding ceremony at about 15% of the weddings we service.
We can provide fully portable and wireless battery-powered PA systems for the music at your ceremony, and backup/secondary wireless microphones for your celebrant/ceremony proceedings.
Music is so essential to sustaining an awesome and celebrative atmosphere. With the exception of speech time, your music will be playing throughout the whole night, playing by the booked start time and at least until the booked finish time. This includes the time when guests are arriving, being seated, during meal times, and of course - the most important celebrative hours, When The Dancefloor Is Opened!
Let's take the example of a 5-hour booking from 6:00pm - 11:00pm.
Although you are only charged for 5 hours in a regular booking, we can typically spend up to 7 hours on site, including the arrival, setup and packdown.
Yes, it is possible to extend the booking to any desired length.
While many companies charge by the "additional hour or part thereof" - we only charge you in additional half-hour increments, we don't charge you for a full hour if you only require an additional 30 minutes.
Yes, of course. We find that in particular about 50% of our couples who choose to have us MC also choose to opt for our Premium service, which is only a small additional cost, and includes (among other features) the option of a prior face-to-face meeting with your actual DJ/MC for the night.
We know it's a very busy time and we're happy to come out to visit you at your location or wherever suits you best.
For a small additional cost we offer our Premium Service.
The Premium Wedding Package is typically selected by couples who would like the personal touch of meeting their DJ/MC in person in finalising and consolidating planning for the night. Especially useful if you've elected for us to act as MC on the evening, as there's a little more involved of course.

The Premium Service also includes more advanced lighting and particle effects.
Couples choose DJ Masters over other service providers because after 12 years and over 2,500 weddings, we know exactly what we're doing - we're not a one-man-show - we're a fun and dynamic team, with the skill and resources of an experienced company to ensure a perfect night.
We perform weddings at many luxury and exclusive venues throughout the year, many of which require Public Liability Insurance. We will provide your venue with our Certificate of Currency if they do not have it on file.
We always carry insurance for our Public Liability and our DJs. $20,000,000 Products and Public Liability.
No. Unlike most services in the industry, we do not base our pricing on this. We have always charged the same rates whether you have 30 people or 200 people at your reception.
Quotes are based on the time of year (high/low season), and a small travel fee only if there is more than 1 hour of travel from Melbourne required.
Yes, we are offering a $200 discount to those who have found us through EasyWeddings!
There's no obligation to provide a meal for your DJ/MC on the night.
If you do generously choose to nourish us with a meal, we are grateful for a basic meal, with water/soft-drinks only.

Yes! Our first same-sex reception was 12 years ago, and we've been performing every year every since - they are without doubt some of the most festive and celebrative events to be a part of, how could we not love bringing the music to such a party!
