Don’t want a disc jockey (DJ) for your event? If you’re looking for a non-traditional way to bring entertainment to your event, skip the sound and light man and try one of these alternatives to a DJ:
If you’re looking for DJ alternatives to save money, this option both saves and ups the excitement.
Enlist one or two friends to take over the mic(s) for the night. The more your emcees know your guests, the better this will entertain! You’ll have the benefit of an announcer who knows you well, and there is almost no end to the shenanigans that can proceed throughout your event. Audience participation never fails as a way to heighten the entertainment – learn from this example posted on Wisebread.com by Lynn Truong about Alternative Wedding Ideas for Big Savings.
There’s something about a jukebox that brings out the kid in everyone – and this option is sure to bring variety to your musical selection. While you may not want to opt for this at a formal event, it can be a hit at almost any other type of gathering. This adds interactivity for your guests and the feeling of nostalgia will return with every memory of your event. The cost is usually under $500 for the day! You can get a quote from local vendors through AllTimeFavorites.com.
This alternative to a DJ can be one of the cheapest and easiest. If you already own an iPod with a solid library of songs, half the battle is won! Once the mp3 player and song files are accounted for, all you’ll need is proper speakers. Some venues, like ours, have audio visual equipment available that you can plug & play. Another option is to get low-cost speaker or sound system rentals from local providers.
If you are not already equipped with an mp3 player or library of songs, this can get pricy. You can get a cheaper version of an mp3 player, or a small Apple iPod. Another option aside from an mp3 player is a notebook PC, or even a smartphone. Once the player is accounted for, songs tend to get expensive. If you don’t want to pony up 99 cents a song, here are some alternatives:
Grooveshark - Grooveshark allows you to create your own library and playlists of streaming tracks, and you can even play Pandora-esque radio stations. There is a free option (including ads) for the PC (all you need is an Internet connection), and 2 subscription options (both under $10/mo) which provide ad-free access and mobile apps.
LegalSounds - LegalSounds allows you to purchase albums and songs at a fraction of the prices on the iTunes Store (about 9 cents per song). While it will still cost you, you’ll get much more for your money; and they also have deposit bonuses to really drive up the value.
*The above video may contain strong language*
While The Dan Band may be a bit edgier (and pricier) than you’d imagine for your event, a cover band can be an excellent choice for an event. They range in talent, repertoire and creativity, and cover bands can get a crowd riled up just as well as James Brown if they’ve got what it takes. To find one that suits your event (if you don’t already have one in mind), you’ll want to ask around. Find reviews online, ask friends who like to go bar-hopping, and chat with your venue for any recommendations.
Another DJ alternative that is popular for weddings and more formal events is an instrumental performer. Many opt for a string quartet, a pianist or even a harpist. Instrumental music adds elegance to an event and is a more understated entertainment option, which is best suited when people will be socializing. Of course, you can scale up the excitement with a big band or jazz act!
As tempting as it was to add to the list, karaoke is a big risk – albeit one that would make for some excellent video and entertaining memories! We don’t want to leave it out of the mix though, so we’re just going to say… Use at your own discretion!
