DJ Honey Events

DJ Honey Events is a wedding DJ business serving the Washington, DC region and the wider Mid-Atlantic. DJ Honey began in Philadelphia in 2010 with a secondhand mixing kit and an eclectic record collection, and started deejaying at the age of 17.

For LGBTQ+ couples

DJ Honey Events is LGBTQ+-owned. A DJ with a broad, culture-minded taste in music can read a room and move between genres without forcing a formula. That suits couples who want a dance floor that fits their own playlist and their guests, whoever they are.

What to expect

• Music built around original grooves and a wide range of genres
• A performer with years on the Philadelphia and DC scenes
• Experience at venues across the Mid-Atlantic

Briefing your DJ

Write a must-play list and a do-not-play list, and note any songs tied to a first dance, entrances or toasts. Describe the energy you want at each stage: dinner background, a lively opening and a late-night peak. Share the order of events so transitions are smooth.

Ask whether the DJ also serves as emcee, how announcements are handled, and what equipment is supplied, including microphones and speakers. Check the sound needs of your venue, including noise limits and curfews.

Planning ahead

Fall and spring weekends book up, so contact a DJ many months in advance. Ask about a planning call close to the wedding to finalize details. Confirm setup time, power access and what happens if a venue changes its schedule.

Where they work

The business serves the Washington, DC area and has performed throughout the Mid-Atlantic, so ask about travel for venues in Maryland, Virginia or Pennsylvania.
