What happens if our wedding DJ is sick on the day?

Great question — and totally understandable! When it comes to your wedding day, reliability is everything, and I take that seriously.

If I were ever sick or unable to perform (which is extremely rare), I have a network of trusted professional DJs and musicians I can call on — people I know personally and would trust with my own wedding. The goal is always a smooth handover with zero stress for you.

You don’t need to worry about preparing a backup playlist — I’ve got that covered. I always arrive early, come fully equipped, and have contingency plans in place. You deserve to relax and enjoy your day knowing the music is in safe hands.

In this Industry you have to be prepared for everything. There are 2 of us performing, so we will make sure that your special day goes ahead and have other entertainers as back ups. The stress is not yours too worry about, its ours.  

That will depend on who you choose.

ALWAYS ... ALWAYS ... ALWAYS get a contract and see what the contract says about the sickness of a DJ.

Hi there, when you boom with us we guarantee coverage of your event. If any performer or DJ is sick we find a replacement. In almost 20 years of events we have never failed a client!

We are always a two person show at any Wedding event, if the DJ ends up sick at the last minute, The assistant DJ would take over.

Hi there

Unfortunately it does happen on the odd occasion

I suggest you have a back up plan with contacts who perform similar entertainment and hope they can step in at the last minute.

Alternatively, a number of us entertainers could offer you a pa, mic set up at a set cost.  That way, if we are booked elsewhere, we could set it up for you to use Spotify.  You can then have your own playlist on your device.

Kind regards

Most DJ's would give advanced notice if for some reason they were unwell - however if it is the case, they generally should have a back up plan for you or offer a complete refund due to being unable to provide their Entertainment Service.

I can see how this would be stressful and of course worrying - the last thing you want is your Wedding Celebration to be without Entertainment.
Have you asked your DJ?
Did you sign a contract with your DJ about any situations like this?

Hi! For my clients, there is really no excuse for not turning up to a wedding! If something tragic happens, the sick supplier should source an alternative option for you. This can be discussed with your suppliers prior to paying the booking fee. 

Ben is the DJ for Ben and Vee - if you book one of our packages where he is your DJ and he happens to be sick, we will find another DJ to come in and do that part of the evening. Otherwise, Vee can supply iPod music and DJ lighting for the evening. 

Yes we have back up Wedding DJs and equipment ready to go. As your playlist is planned online through us we can simply pass it to the back up DJ, its a very easy process for us.
