This Job Isn't for Everyone
Wedding DJing is fun, but getting there requires work.
You'll carry equipment, work long days, interact with lots of people and sometimes get home very late.
But at the end of the night, there might be 150 people on a packed dance floor singing along with the music because of decisions you helped make.
If you're looking for a quiet and easy Saturday job, this probably isn't it.
If you want to get paid while learning a craft that could turn into a serious side income or career, we want to hear from you.
