Artisia® is proud to be the only entertainment agency with a Greek DJ in Perth. Coincidentally, he is also the city's only DJ that speaks Greek and mixes modern and traditional Greek music in Perth.

Here's what our Greek-Australian DJ has shared with us:

1. Live Instrumentalists/Band: Consider hiring live instrumentalists if your budget allows. Skilled professionals, such as bouzouki players, singers, or toumperleki players, can enhance the ambiance with traditional Greek dances like kalamatiano and zembekiko. Alternatively, you can opt for a single instrumentalist to complement your DJ, offering a mix of live and recorded music.

2. Dinner Sets: This is where a live instrumentalist can really enhance the atmosphere, but even with just your wedding DJ, you can still enjoy easy listening Greek music. Additionally, if you'd like, you may opt for a 15-minute set of modern or traditional Greek dancing to kickstart the dance floor early.

3. Dual Greek Dancing Slots: Our recommended approach for a balanced mix of Greek and English music involves two distinct segments:

• First Greek Set: Typically, after your slow dances, you can start with traditional circle dancing for 10 to 15 minutes, smoothly transitioning into a modern Greek party set for another 10 to 15 minutes. The total segment usually lasts around 30 minutes.
• English Set (Intermission): Provide a brief break with English music to ensure all guests feel included and catered to.
• Second Set: Maintain the Greek atmosphere with another 30-minute session, featuring popular "Zeimbekika" tunes leading into the iconic Zorba dance. This final segment encourages everyone to join in. 
• English Set (Closing Set): This is the final set that closes the wedding night off.

Absolutely, we do charge more for New Year's Eve weddings. Given that it's our peak season, New Year's Eve tends to be our busiest night, which naturally reflects in the higher booking prices due to the heightened demand for our artists. If an agency isn't adjusting their rates accordingly for this date, it might raise a few eyebrows, hinting at a potential lack of demand. Nevertheless, you can trust that we remain committed to delivering a seamless and professional experience, ensuring your New Year's Eve wedding is nothing short of exciting and unforgettable.

For weddings during peak months, especially on highly sought-after Saturdays, our availability starts to fill up even after 6 months. So, the sooner you book, the better chance you have of securing your preferred band or DJ. This advice applies not only to us but to other agencies as well. Remember, the popularity of your chosen entertainer also plays a significant role. The more in-demand they are, the earlier you'll need to secure their services to ensure they're available on your special day and to avoid any potential disappointments.
