Coverage · four segments

How we run a Miami wedding reception.

Segment 01 · ceremony tie-in

Ceremony tie-in

Reception tier doesn't include the ceremony rig — that's a separate battery PA built for outdoor / non-electrified spaces. See /wedding-ceremony for $800–$1,200 ceremony packages. Most clients book reception + ceremony together; we coordinate one production lead across both.

Segment 02 · cocktail hour

Cocktail hour

Ambient music at conversation level. The DJ transitions live from ceremony hand-off (or pre-event playlist) to cocktail without a gap — no silence between 'I do' and the first drink.

Segment 03 · reception

Reception

Dinner programming, toasts, first dance, cake cut — cued and timed. Wireless handheld for toasts, lavalier on request for a seated dinner address. Timeline built with you in advance.

Segment 04 · dance floor

Dance floor

DJ runs the floor, engineer runs the room — vetted Miami DJ named on the contract. Full PA + dance lighting on Tier 3, sound-only on Tier 2, controller-only when your venue has a house system.

FAQ · Miami wedding DJ

Questions we get a lot.

How much does it cost to rent a wedding DJ in Miami?
Three published packages, all 5 hours: DJ Only $1,800 (when your venue has a house PA you can patch into), DJ + Sound $2,400 (most weddings — DJ brings the full rig), DJ + Sound + Lights $3,500 (full production with dance floor lighting + uplights + hazer). DJ named on every contract before signing. Overtime $175/hour. Popular Saturdays carry a +20% prime-date premium applied at booking.
What's the difference between DJ Only, DJ + Sound, and DJ + Sound + Lights?
DJ Only ($1,800) is for venues that already have a sound system you can patch into — Faena Forum, most major hotel ballrooms with house PA. The DJ brings the controller (Pioneer DDJ-800 or AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ) and a wireless mic. DJ + Sound ($2,400) adds an EV EKX-15P powered PA pair + EKX-18SP subs, Yamaha mixer, mic, stands, all cables — works in any venue with or without house PA. DJ + Sound + Lights ($3,500) adds dance floor lighting (8 wireless LED uplights, 2 wash + beam moving heads, hazer) for visible energy from the moment guests walk in.
Can I request a specific named DJ?
Our standard package assigns a vetted Miami DJ matched to your event style — named on the contract before signing. If you want a specific named artist (resident or guest), we quote that as a premium add-on with a date-first availability check.
Do I have to use your DJ?
No. We also offer audio-only and lighting-only rentals — see /audio-rental (from $800) and /lighting-rental (from $800) if you're bringing your own DJ. The /wedding-dj packages above are for clients who want our vetted Miami DJ included.
Do you provide ceremony audio separately?
Yes — that's a different rig (battery PA, weatherproof, set up at the aisle) and a different time block. We quote it on /wedding-ceremony — packages from $800 (single battery speaker, 2 wireless mics, engineer) to $1,200 (two speakers + cold spark recessional). Ceremony + reception bookings together usually combine into one production lead and one COI.
What about destination weddings outside Miami?
If your venue is in the Florida Keys, Palm Beach (luxury venues), Orlando, Tampa or central Florida, see /destination-wedding — same DJ + production tiers but priced as base × 1.25 + travel (Keys flat $750 + hotel; Palm Beach +$150 delivery; beyond is per-job quoted). Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach (standard venues) use this page's reception pricing with +$80 / +$150 delivery.
How early does the DJ + crew arrive?
We load in 90–120 minutes before your event start time. Sound check is complete before guests arrive. The engineer coordinates load-in logistics with your venue directly — freight elevator, vendor parking, dock timing — so you never have to play go-between.
What's the overtime rate?
Overtime is $175/hour, billed in 30-minute increments. We confirm your decision to extend with you on the night — never an automatic charge. The rate is published; no surprises.
Will the DJ take requests from guests?
That's a conversation we have before the event. Default is yes, within your do-not-play list. If you want a tight playlist with no requests, we can do that too. Worth deciding before the event so the DJ has the right answer when Aunt Linda walks up at 9:45.
