Everything you need to know

Answers to the most common questions about booking, music, equipment, pricing, and what to expect when you hire DJ Aerodynamix for your event.

About DJ Aerodynamix

The basics — who I am, how long I’ve been doing this, and what sets me apart from other DJs in BC.

Why Choose DJ Aerodynamix?

Experience. Intuition. Passion. Three key attributes of a top DJ — and I have all of them. I’ve built a track record of providing high-energy, unforgettable experiences that are completely customized to meet my clients’ needs. My goal is the same as yours: to immerse your closest friends and family in an unforgettable celebration they’ll be talking about for years to come.

My nightclub background means I read crowds in real time — I know when to build energy and when to hold it. Combined with 14+ years of professional experience, 300+ events performed, and a perfect 5.0★ rating across 100+ reviews, I’m one of the most trusted DJs in British Columbia.

How long have you been DJ'ing?

Since 2010 — over 14 years of performing. I started at house parties and local Kelowna nightclubs, and by 2011 word had spread enough that DJ Aerodynamix became a full-time professional service. Today I serve couples and corporate clients across all of British Columbia.

What areas do you serve?

I serve all of British Columbia. My primary markets are:

Okanagan: Kelowna, Penticton, Vernon, Osoyoos, Salmon Arm, Revelstoke
Greater Vancouver:Vancouver, Surrey, Coquitlam, Langley, Abbotsford, Richmond

I’m also available for destination events throughout BC with reasonable travel fees. Contact me to discuss your specific location.

What types of events do you DJ for?

I perform for a wide range of events including:

Your wedding night

Everything couples ask before booking — from ceremony coverage to last dance.

Do you provide music for the ceremony as well as the reception?

Yes. I provide full coverage from processional to last dance — including ceremony music, cocktail hour ambience, dinner background music, and the full reception dance set. Each segment is discussed and customized during our planning consultation.

Can we give you a must-play and do-not-play list?

Absolutely — and I strongly encourage it. Your must-plays are non-negotiable. Your do-not-plays are equally respected. During our music consultation we’ll go through your full list together. I mix around your preferences while using my crowd-reading skills to keep the energy right throughout the night.

Will you act as MC for our wedding?

Yes. Professional MC services are included in my wedding packages. I handle introductions, announcements, and keep your timeline flowing — concisely and warmly, without the cringey filler that plagues most wedding MCs. We’ll go through your full run-of-show during our planning call so nothing is a surprise on the day.

How early do you arrive to set up?

I arrive 2 hours before guests for all weddings. This gives me time to complete full setup, run a thorough sound check, calibrate lighting, and brief with your wedding coordinator — all before a single guest walks in. You’ll never see me scrambling.

Can you perform at outdoor venues?

Yes. I have a fully battery-powered setup that requires no power hookup from the venue. This means I can perform at vineyard estates, lakefront ceremonies, tented receptions, and any outdoor location across BC — with zero compromise on sound quality.

Do you coordinate with our wedding planner and venue?

Yes. I communicate directly with your wedding planner and venue coordinator in advance to confirm load-in times, power access, floor plan, and any venue-specific requirements. You won’t need to be the middleman.

Corporate entertainment

What to expect when booking DJ Aerodynamix for your company event, gala, or corporate function.

What types of corporate events do you cover?

I perform at galas, award ceremonies, product launches, Christmas parties, team appreciation events, and corporate mixers. I adapt the energy and style in real time — background lounge music during dinner, building to a full dance set as the evening progresses — based on your program and your crowd.

Can you work with a specific program or run-of-show?

Absolutely. Corporate events often have tight timelines — speaker segments, award presentations, video reels. I work directly with your event coordinator to integrate seamlessly with your program, providing appropriate music transitions and MC support at every stage.

Do you provide a wireless microphone for speakers?

Yes. I bring a professional wireless microphone system to every corporate event. This covers keynote speakers, award presenters, and any other on-stage moments throughout your evening.

The soundtrack to your night

How music selection, live mixing, and playlist customization works.

How do you select the music for an event?

Every event starts with a detailed music consultation where we discuss your must-plays, do-not-plays, preferred genres, and the overall vibe you want. From there I build a custom set structure — but I always live-mix in real time, reading the crowd and adapting as the night unfolds. I never just press play on a pre-set playlist.

What genres and styles do you cover?

Everything. Top 40, hip hop, R&B, EDM, rock, country, Latin, old school classics, 80s/90s, alternative, indie — I have an unbeatable library built over 14 years. I’ve done everything from alternative rock festival vibes to elegant classical ceremony music to full club-energy dance floors. If it exists, I can play it.

Do you take requests on the night?

Yes, within reason. Guest requests are welcome as long as they fit the energy and vibe of the moment. I use my professional judgment to determine when and how to work requests into the set — I won’t derail a packed dance floor with an out-of-place song, but I will do my best to honour requests when the timing is right.

Do you do live mixing or just play tracks?

Always live mixing. I never press play on a pre-recorded set. Every transition, every build, every energy shift is performed live in real time using Pioneer DJ equipment. This is what separates a professional DJ from someone with a Spotify playlist — and it’s the core of what makes a great dance floor.

How to book

From first inquiry to signed contract — here’s exactly how the booking process works.

How do I check availability and book?

Fill out the inquiry form with your event date, venue, and a brief description of your event. I respond within 24 hours to confirm availability. If your date is available, we’ll schedule a consultation call and I’ll send over a detailed quote and contract.

How far in advance should I book?

As early as possible. Peak wedding season (May–October) weekend dates regularly book 12–18 months in advance. I recommend reaching out as soon as your venue is confirmed. If you’re looking for a last-minute booking, contact me directly and I’ll let you know current availability.

Is a deposit required to secure my date?

Yes. A deposit is required to officially secure your date and remove it from availability. Your date is not held until the deposit is received and the contract is signed. Contact me for current deposit amounts based on your event type and package.

When does the music planning consultation happen?

After booking is confirmed, we schedule a dedicated music planning consultation — typically 4–8 weeks before your event. This is where we finalize your must-plays, do-not-plays, ceremony music, first dance, and the overall vibe for each part of your evening.

Investment & pricing

What’s included, how pricing works, and what to expect in terms of payment.

How much does DJ Aerodynamix cost?

Pricing varies based on event type, duration, location, and add-ons selected. Wedding packages start from $1,500 and are fully customizable. The best way to get an accurate quote is to fill out my inquiry form with your event details and I’ll respond with a personalized package within 24 hours.

What does the base price include?

All packages include professional DJ services with live mixing, full sound system, wireless microphone for MC duties, setup and teardown, travel within the Kelowna/Okanagan region, and a dedicated music consultation. Additional add-ons (uplighting, photobooth, CO₂ cannon, etc.) are priced separately.

What payment methods do you accept?

I accept e-transfer, credit card, and cash. A deposit secures your date, with the remaining balance due on or before the event date. Full payment details are outlined in the contract.

Are there travel fees for events outside Kelowna?

Travel within the Okanagan is typically included. For events in Vancouver and other BC regions, a reasonable travel fee is added based on distance and whether overnight accommodation is required. All travel costs are clearly outlined in your quote before any commitment.

My commitments to you

Cancellation policy, guarantees, and what happens in unlikely scenarios.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellation terms are outlined in your signed contract. In general, deposits are non-refundable as they compensate for holding your date and turning away other bookings. Cancellations with significant notice may receive a partial refund of payments beyond the deposit. Please review your contract carefully or contact me directly to discuss your situation.

What if I need to change my event date?

Date changes are accommodated subject to availability. If I’m available on your new date, the booking simply transfers with no additional fee. Contact me as early as possible if you anticipate a date change — the sooner you reach out, the more options we’ll have.

Do you carry liability insurance?

Yes. DJ Aerodynamix carries full professional liability insurance. Many venues require proof of insurance from vendors — I can provide a certificate of insurance upon request as part of the booking process.

Equipment & technical setup

What gear I bring, how setup works, and what your venue needs to provide.

What equipment do you bring?

I bring a complete professional-grade setup including:

Sound: Highest-grade speakers and subwoofers, Pioneer DJ controllers, CDJs, and professional mixers
Microphones: Wireless lapel and handheld microphone systems
Lighting: Wireless DMX LED uplights (available in any colour)
Backup: Full redundancy on all critical equipment
Power: Battery-powered option for outdoor/remote venues

What does the venue need to provide?

For standard indoor events, I need a dedicated electrical circuit (standard 120V outlet). For outdoor events, I can operate entirely on battery power with no venue power required. A 6–8 foot table or DJ booth space is also needed. I’ll confirm all technical requirements with your venue coordinator in advance.

How long does setup and teardown take?

I arrive 2 hours before guests for setup. Teardown is typically 45–60 minutes after the event concludes. Both are included in the service — you and your guests won’t see me rushing or making noise during your event.

What if something goes wrong?

In 14 years, nothing has — but here’s exactly what happens if it ever did.

Do you have backup equipment?

Yes — full redundancy on all critical equipment. Every core component has a backup: backup laptop, backup controller, backup cables, backup speakers. In 14 years of performing, equipment failure has never interrupted an event. The backup gear exists to ensure it never does.

What if you become ill or have an emergency on my event day?

In the extremely unlikely event of a personal emergency that prevents me from performing, I have a trusted network of professional DJs in the Kelowna and Vancouver markets. I would personally source and brief a qualified replacement and ensure they have your full music plan. You would be notified immediately and any cost difference would be handled appropriately.

What if the venue loses power?

My battery-powered setup option means I can continue performing through a venue power outage. For events where I’m running on venue power, the switchover to battery takes under 60 seconds. Your guests may not even notice.

What couples say

100+ reviews. Every single one, five stars. Here’s what past clients have to say.

Where can I read your reviews?

My reviews are primarily on WeddingWire.ca and Google. I currently have 100+ reviews with a perfect 5.0★ average. You can also see selected reviews on my homepage and throughout this website.

Can I speak with past clients as references?

My public review profiles speak for themselves, but if you’d like a personal reference from a past client, reach out and I’ll do my best to connect you with a past couple who had a similar event to yours.

Working together with other vendors

How I work with planners, photographers, venues, and other event professionals.

Do you work with wedding planners and coordinators?

Yes — and I prefer it. Wedding planners and coordinators make the entire day smoother for everyone. I communicate directly with your coordinator before the event to align on timelines, and I stay in close contact throughout the day to ensure every transition happens exactly when it should.

Are you open to vendor referral partnerships?

Yes. I have established relationships with photographers, videographers, florists, and venues across the Okanagan and Vancouver. If you’re a wedding professional interested in discussing a referral relationship, reach out directly.

What I need from you

To deliver the best possible night, here’s what helps on your end.

What information do you need before the event?

For weddings, I need: final timeline/run-of-show, music preferences and must-plays, any special song requests (first dance, parent dances, etc.), venue contact information and load-in instructions, and your wedding coordinator’s contact. All of this is collected during our planning consultation — I provide a detailed questionnaire to make it easy.

How far in advance do I need to finalize music choices?

Ideally 2–4 weeks before your event. This gives me time to source any specific tracks, prepare custom edits if needed, and structure your set properly. Last-minute additions are accommodated, but earlier is always better for your own peace of mind.

Do I need to provide anything at the venue?

Just a dedicated power outlet and adequate space for my setup (approximately 6–8 feet). I handle everything else. If your venue has specific vendor requirements (like proof of insurance), let me know in advance and I’ll provide whatever documentation is needed.

Still have questions? I respond to all inquiries within 24 hours.
