Breaking the Norms with Female Wedding DJs

Written by: Saint Spicer

Hiring a woman to DJ your wedding is not an option many couples know they have when they first begin planning their wedding. There are many reasons for this, including:

1. Referrals and Word of Mouth: Couples relying on referrals from friends or family who have only hired male DJs might not consider female DJs.

2. Visibility: Male DJs are generally more well-known, leading people to default to them.

3. Industry Norms: Many wedding DJ companies have male-only teams, limiting options for couples.

4. Search Results: Online searches for female DJs often yield limited results.

As a female wedding DJ myself I’ve also heard many misconceptions about women wedding DJs, including

- She won’t be a strong MC.

- She won’t play the music I like.

- Her values won’t align with ours.

- She can’t understand gay relationships and culture.

- She can’t take charge of the event flow.

I actually believe it’s totally fair to hire a DJ who fits your culture & values, especially when your family is expecting a wedding where they can be themselves & celebrate their culture freely. The problem is not folks who only want a male DJ. It’s the lack of knowledge of what a woman wedding DJ can bring to the table that holds people back from considering her for their wedding.

So, here are some benefits of hiring a female Wedding DJ:

1. Dynamic MC Skills: Women often excel in creating dramatic grand entrances with dynamic mic skills, adding an electric moment for guests.

2. Fashion and Style: Women wedding DJs can rock a variety of outfits—suits, skirts, ties, vests, florals, dresses—adding style by matching the bridal party or decor.

3. Dance Floor Insight: Women often start the dance floor at clubs & events, and as a woman myself, I know what we want to dance to.

4. Event Flow Management: Most wedding planners are women, and having a woman as the DJ all but guarantees good rapport & seamless coordination- we love to be on the same page!
