Your questions, my answers.

Yes. I speak English, French, Arabic and Italian. Microphone announcements are made in English whenever guests come from abroad, and the whole preparation — brief, playlist, running order — can be done in English.

Your quote and our exchanges are in English too.

DJ DRIM works across the whole of Provence and the French Riviera (the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region). Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, Vitrolles, Aubagne, Cassis and Salon-de-Provence are included in every package (50 km radius).

Toulon, Avignon, Arles, Nîmes: a modest travel supplement from the Premium package. Cannes, Nice, Monaco and rural Provence: included in the Prestige package. Further afield, on request.

For a Saturday between May and September, ideally 12 to 18 months ahead. For other dates, 6 to 9 months is usually enough.

Ask for a quote as soon as you have your date — it holds the slot for you for 30 days with no commitment, while we talk things through.

DJ only up to 80 guests, Essential up to 150, Signature up to 200, Premium up to 300, Prestige with no limit (tested with 500+ guests).

We scale the amount of equipment (subs, tops, moving-head lights) to the real size of the room.

Oriental cultures: Kabyle, raï, Moroccan, Tunisian, Egyptian, Lebanese, chaâbi.

French and international cultures: French pop, 80s/90s/2000s, RnB, hip-hop, US pop, electro, Latin, reggaeton.

Multilingual: French, Arabic, English, Italian — which makes life easier with guests from abroad and binational families.

It is one of our specialities. Grand entrance procession, henna, traditional dances, dowry ceremony, Kabyle/raï/Moroccan/Tunisian/Egyptian/Lebanese musical codes — all mastered.

Most of the weddings we have played since 2018 are mixed or fully Oriental. That is what sets us apart from most DJs in Marseille.

Yes, all kinds of private events: engagement parties, henna nights, 30th/40th/50th birthdays, baby showers, corporate parties.

The service adapts to the duration — 4 to 5 hours is often enough, versus 8 to 10 hours for a wedding. Ask for a personalised estimate.

Yes, it is included in the Prestige package and available as an option on the other packages.

Dedicated sound system, Shure wireless microphones for the celebrant and the witnesses, music timed to your running order. Outdoor or indoor wedding, it makes no difference: we adapt (a 50 m+ extension lead is always in the van).

Yes, only with category F1 effects (approved for indoor use, maximum safety).

In the catalogue: cold-spark fountains, dry-ice cloud, low-lying fog across the floor, cold-spark cascade, coloured smoke rockets for the ceremony, cold-spark rosette, cold-spark pistols, LED bazooka.

No outdoor fireworks display, however: no outdoor pyrotechnician licence. For that you need a specialist provider.

30% deposit when the contract is signed, by bank transfer (IBAN). Wero is a French/European instant-payment app; a standard SEPA transfer, or a service like Wise or Revolut, works just as well.

Balance due before the wedding day (two days before), by bank transfer — net prices, no card payments, no payment fees passed on to you.

Clear conditions set out in the contract:

• > 90 days before the wedding: the deposit is refunded less an administrative fee set out in the contract.
• 30 to 90 days: the deposit is not refunded.
• < 30 days: 50% of the contracted total is due.
• Force majeure on DJ DRIM's side (serious illness, accident): full refund and help finding a replacement through our professional network.

At least 1½ hours of set-up for the DJ only and Essential packages, up to 3 hours for Prestige (LED booth, moving-head lights, video projector, pyrotechnics).

We always coordinate with your planner or the venue manager so as not to get in the way of the other suppliers (caterer, photographer, florist).

Of course! Once the deposit is paid, you get access to an online brief where you list:

• The songs for your key moments (entrance, first dance, cake, parents' dance…)
• Your absolute must-plays
• Your "no-go" tracks (songs you do not want to hear, for personal reasons)

A dedicated WhatsApp group is also set up a month before, so you can send over the songs you fall in love with as they come to you.

For the Premium and Prestige packages, an assistant can be present: wireless microphones, firing the pyrotechnics, technical supervision while I am in the booth.

Included in Prestige, optional on Premium. Not needed on the DJ only/Essential/Signature packages, where I handle everything myself.

The main equipment (sound system, microphones, mixer) is fully backed up for the Signature package and above.

In the event of a serious health issue, a trusted network of partner DJs can step in. The contract sets out the details. It is a professional's first rule: plan for the worst so that it never happens.

There is no physical showroom, but the Equipment page of the site presents every piece of kit in detail: Electro-Voice EKX sound system, Pioneer REV-7 decks, 3,000-lumen video projector, F1 pyrotechnics, etc.
