To what extent do you want your entertainment to interact with your guests? The variety of DJs and musicians in the Washington, D.C. area means that you can choose an understated pianist to play during cocktail hour, a belly dancer who wanders between tables, or anything in between.

As you shop for DJs around Washington, D.C., be sure to interview them thoroughly. Some amateur DJs will try to second-guess you because they "know what will get people dancing." This is not the case for your event! Make sure DJs are willing to play any songs you require. You, as the customer, are always right. Similarly, if you give your DJs a "do not play" list, they should stick to it without exception. If there are specific songs you do want, request them early to leave your DJ plenty of time to find the tracks. DJs with larger music collections aren't necessarily better, though; it's more important to find someone who has a wide selection of songs in your chosen style.
