Frequently Asked Questions

This is a one-on-one consulting session designed to help you tackle your biggest wedding music challenges.

  1. Schedule your session: Choose a time that works for you. You can opt for a quick chat to discuss a single issue or a full session for a more comprehensive review.
  2. Come prepared: Share any details about the couple’s requests or the specific music problem you’re facing. This could be a challenging “do not play” list, a mix of genres you’re unsure how to handle, or a request for unique songs for a specific moment.
  3. Collaborate with Matthew: During our call, we’ll dive into your specific challenge. We’ll work together to brainstorm solutions, identify song suggestions, and create a plan to make you feel confident and prepared for your client’s big day.

My goal is to provide you with the tools and insights you need to deliver an unforgettable music experience for your clients.

Our calls are collaborative, one-on-one sessions to help you master the music for your upcoming weddings. We can discuss a wide range of topics, including:

  • Refining your clients’ playlists: We’ll review their song lists and work together to find the perfect additions or substitutions to enhance the flow of the night.
  • Tackling challenging requests: Get advice on how to handle difficult-to-blend genres, unique song requests, or tricky “do not play” lists.
  • Finding fresh ideas for key moments: Brainstorm unique song selections for the ceremony, grand entrance, first dance, or other special moments to make your client’s day stand out.
  • Music-based client communication: Get tips on how to effectively communicate with your clients about their music vision and set expectations.
  • Staying on top of trends: Discuss newly released songs and emerging music trends to ensure your repertoire is always fresh and relevant.
  • Problem-solving: Bring any specific musical challenge you’re facing, and we’ll strategize a solution together.

While my primary expertise and content library are focused on weddings, the principles of music curation, crowd-pleasing playlists, and professional client communication are universal. This service is most valuable to DJs who work on special events and want to refine their skills for the unique flow of a wedding.

Free resources provide general advice, but a one-on-one mastermind session is a personalized, guided consultation. We focus specifically on your unique client’s challenges or an ongoing music issue you’re facing. This service provides tailored, actionable advice and a clear plan that you cannot get from a generic blog post or an online forum.

Yes, your client’s information and any details about your business are kept strictly confidential. The purpose of our session is to help you improve your skills and better serve your clients—not to share or use any private information.
