DJfindr makes it easy to find a great DJ for any event — weddings, corporate parties, clubs, and everything in between.

Step 1 — Search for DJs

Go to djfindr.com and enter your city or zip code. You can filter by:

  • Genre — e.g., House, Hip-Hop, Latin, EDM
  • Event Type — Wedding, Corporate, Club Night, Private Party
  • Date — See who's actually available
  • Budget — Filter by starting hourly rate

Step 2 — Send an Inquiry

Click Request a Quote on any DJ's profile. You'll be asked to provide:

  • Event date and time
  • Venue address and indoor/outdoor
  • Estimated guest count
  • Equipment needs (speakers, lighting, etc.)

The DJ will respond with availability confirmation and a proposal.

Step 3 — Review the Proposal

Once the DJ sends a proposal, you'll see a full breakdown:

  • Total price with itemized add-ons
  • Deposit amount (typically 25–50%)
  • Cancellation policy

You can message the DJ directly to negotiate or clarify details before accepting.

Step 4 — Confirm and Pay the Deposit

Accept the proposal and pay the deposit to lock in your date. The remainder is due 48 hours before the event.

Step 5 — After the Event

Rate your experience! Your review helps other clients and gives DJs feedback to improve.
