Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about packages, planning and the night itself.
What is included in each package?

Where do you DJ?
Big Zay DJ is based in Billings, Montana. Zay plays weddings in Billings, around Yellowstone County and across Montana. Travel is available, so tell him your venue and he will confirm.
Do you DJ anything besides weddings?
Weddings are the focus, but Zay also plays birthdays, graduations and private parties. Tell him what you are planning and he will shape the set.
Can we make a must-play and do-not-play list?
Yes. The event planner on this site lets you build a timeline, add must-plays and block songs. The Signature and The Headliner include a do-not-play list built with you two. Zay follows the lists and still reads the room.
Can guests request songs?
Yes. Put the request QR code on a table or sign. Guests scan it, send a title and Zay sees it right away. He slots requests in when they fit the moment.
Do you also MC?
Yes. Full MC hosting is part of The Signature and The Headliner, and The Essential includes a wireless mic for toasts. Zay can announce your grand entrance, dances and cake cut, or stay quiet and let the music do the work. You choose.
How far in advance should we book?
As early as you can, since popular dates fill up. Last-minute events are worth a call or text anyway. Travel is available, so just ask.
Compare options on the packages page or use the event planner.
