The Susie Show

The Susie Show is a mobile DJ, karaoke and photo booth service based in Waunakee, Wisconsin. It serves Madison, south central Wisconsin and surrounding areas.

Why they suit LGBTQ+ couples

The Susie Show is LGBTQ+-owned. The DJ has worked professionally for 25 years and keeps a music library across 32 genres, which gives you room to build a playlist that suits your crowd rather than a standard wedding set.

Equipment and music

The DJ uses professional speakers, microphones and lighting and always carries backup equipment, and is prepared with backup DJs in case of an emergency. The library spans oldies to current pop, country, hip hop, Latin, electronic, disco, reggae, blues, swing and more, and it is updated weekly.

Planning the dance floor

Tell the DJ your must-play list and your do-not-play list, and describe your guests: older relatives, friends who love the dance floor and any language or cultural requests. Ask about karaoke if you want a lighter moment.

Confirm setup time, power and sound rules at your venue. Ask for a written contract that names the date, hours, equipment and overtime. If you have a first dance or a cultural dance, bring the track and tell the DJ when it should play. Ask about the volume plan, too, so older guests can talk during dinner.
