Wedding DJ Moers · Events since 2004
Your wedding in the old county on the Lower Rhine.
Moers was once a county of its own, and to this day you celebrate here in your own way. I am Michael Zimmermann, and I accompany your wedding with music from the reception to the last round on the dance floor. From over 650 weddings and more than 1,450 events in over 25 years, I know how to tell when a room is ready to dance. beats per micha: Michael Zimmermann, wedding DJ, available in Moers and the surrounding area.
“We couldn't have wished for a better DJ.”

You get exactly one shot. I had 1,450 to practise.
One banger after another – the dance floor was packed the whole night.

Wedding venues in Moers
First I ask whether you are celebrating in a hotel ballroom, in a house by the water or within historic walls, because that decides how I set up speakers and lighting. Four addresses show you how different a wedding in Moers can be: a hotel with a large hall, a house with a garden, a castle and a park in the middle of the town.
Whether you celebrate in Moers in a large hotel ballroom, in a house with a lawn or within historic walls, the room determines how I arrange the speakers and lighting. That is why I ask for the floor plan and number of guests before I decide on the setup.
In older buildings the passages are narrow and steps are frequent, so I check with the venue where I may carry my cases. The setup takes around 40 minutes; after that I walk once through the still empty room and listen to what reaches the guests.
On its website the hotel lists six rooms, from the Kapellensaal with 65 square metres to the Bettenkampersaal with 580 square metres. According to the hotel, the latter holds 250 seats for a banquet and 600 for a reception. Which room suits your group, you settle with the hotel; I plan the dance floor afterwards.
The venue explicitly lists weddings among its occasions and describes a large main room with open architecture. With fixed seating there is room for about 60 people, and for relaxed celebrations with standing and dining tables up to 100. For a group of that size, a compact setup is enough for me.
The complex goes back to a tuff stone tower from around 1200 and has belonged to the town since 1905. Today the building houses the Grafschafter Museum with 19 accessible rooms and the Schlosstheater Moers in the cellar rooms. Whether a wedding celebration is possible, you ask the town; within historic walls I find out beforehand where equipment may be placed.
The park has been laid out as an English landscape park since 1836 and has been a listed monument since 1989. The park café was built in 1930, and a rose garden was added in the 1920s. Whether a reception or photos in the park are possible, you ask the town; for outdoors I plan quiet music.
Details on the buildings, rooms and capacities come from Wikipedia and from the websites of the operators named (as of October 2026). Whether your date is free and how many guests fit is something only the respective venue can answer.
I provide the music for your symbolic wedding ceremony, from the entrance through the ring exchange to the exit, with a sound system that runs without a power outlet, indoors or outdoors, and I bring a wireless microphone for your celebrant.
Who I am
Your wedding in Moers will probably bring together families who have lived for generations in Kapellen, Meerbeck or the old town, along with friends from Duisburg and Krefeld. So that everyone dances together after dinner, I cut my transitions myself and let classics flow into current tracks without anyone hearing the join.
You enter your wishes and no-gos in the wedding portal, and we go through them in the video call. On the night I follow the dance floor rather than a rigid plan; I also take care of the arrangements with the venue, photographer and catering staff.
How it works
A date and a venue are enough for a first message, and I reply the same or the next day. After that we settle wishes, times and setup in the video call.
Request a dateI reply to your first message with the date and venue within 24 hours. The video call is only about getting to know each other: you tell me how the day should look, and I listen before any quote is made.
After booking, I unlock the wedding portal for you. There you enter requested songs, no-gos and times, and about a week before the celebration we go over the schedule once more by phone.
On the wedding day I arrive in good time, set up in around 40 minutes, do the soundcheck and coordinate with the photographer, speakers and catering staff.
For the entrance, the exchange of rings and the exit, the pieces you have chosen are played. During the sparkling wine reception the music stays quiet, and if there is no socket nearby, the system runs on battery.
During the meal I keep a low profile. A wireless microphone is ready for speeches, and for games, performances and the bouquet toss I pick the right piece each time.
You open the dancing with your chosen song. After that I read the floor and change the set step by step until everyone is singing along at the end.
My services
For your wedding in Moers I bring music and equipment that suit a large hotel ballroom just as well as a smaller house with a garden.
01Weeks before the celebration you collect favourite tracks, no-gos and the schedule in the wedding portal. On the night I tailor the music to the room and the guests rather than working through a rigid list. From the first message to the final song you speak to one single person, who brings the experience of over 650 weddings. Speakers, lighting and wireless microphones come from my own luggage at every venue.

Your service package
Children, parents and grandparents often have very different tastes. That is why I guide the planning myself, from the first conversation to the last track and without intermediaries.
Which track comes next depends on the mood in the room; the microphone belongs to your speakers, and I am not the centre of attention.
Add-on
LED uplights colour the walls of your hall in the colour of your choice and can change in time with the music.
Enquire →
Add-on
The photo station works on its own: every picture ends up in a private online gallery, and on request prints come straight out of the printer.
Enquire →
Recommendation
If you would like to collect all your guests' phone photos in one place, I recommend the external service Feierblick, which you book yourselves.
View Feierblick →
Included are two wireless microphones, lighting effects, a Pioneer or Denon console and speakers from RCF or Electro-Voice.
Add-on
At the retro telephone your guests leave messages, which I then edit together into an audio file for you.
Enquire →I reply to your enquiry within 24 hours and remain reachable until the celebration.
We settle wishes and no-gos right at the start; I handle the arrangements with the venue and service providers myself.
Open Format
My repertoire ranges from soul and disco to current charts; the mood of your guests decides which direction you hear.
Setup and soundcheck take a good 40 minutes on a footprint of 2.5 by 1.5 metres, and I do the dismantling alone afterwards. About 2.5 m in width and 1.5 m in depth are enough for this, and under normal conditions (car close to the setup area, no stairs or lifts) the setup takes around 40 minutes.
Outdoor
On the meadow or in the park, the music for the entrance, the exchange of rings and the exit plays through a battery-powered system, so you do not have to lay a cable anywhere.
Photo station, live music, uplights and audio guest book can be added on request, and I take on the coordination effort.
Request a date →Frequently asked questions
These are the questions I hear from couples most often, and if yours isn't there, just get in touch with me directly.
+49 176 700 580 27I start with tracks that people of all ages and backgrounds know, and watch who gets up first. After that I let the selection grow in the direction that works. What must not be played under any circumstances, you enter in the portal beforehand.
Outside, a small cordless setup for quiet tracks is enough for me. Once everyone is in the hall, I move over, and the music picks up there again without a break.
During the soundcheck I walk through the empty room and check the sound in several places, including the last row. Then I set the speakers so that nobody at the front gets blasted and nothing is missing at the back.
For me, Whitsun is a normal date, but popular weekends go early. Send me your preferred date, and you will hear the next day whether it is free; on request I will hold it for you without obligation.
Tell me the running order in advance, and I will plan the microphones, the music breaks and the restart. The singer rehearses briefly with the sound system so that the performance works for you.
Then I schedule tracks that children know early on and push the late party back. We settle which times apply for you beforehand in the video call.
Listen & Watch
Even more options
If you would like real live music at the reception or ceremony, I bring in a saxophone, vocals, percussion or violin from my network. We agree on the best moment for the performance well before the celebration.
01
Sparkling wine reception · First dance
On an evening outdoors, a saxophone sounds warm and soft while the guests stand together with a glass of sparkling wine.
02
Party peak · energy on the dance floor
After dessert, percussion adds drive to the beat, and the dance floor often fills up by itself.
03
Entrance · special moments
A live singing voice gives the celebration a touch of a concert, and later the microphone can also pass into your guests' hands.
04
Ceremony · bride's entrance
For your entrance, a violin provides a festive opening that your guests will not forget in a hurry.
05
An evening without a break.
Live music for the reception or dinner, and then a full DJ night anyway? Through my network I can arrange a well-rehearsed band, from a duo to a quartet, with vocals, guitar, piano, percussion or saxophone. Because everything is planned by one person, there is one point of contact, one sound concept and no gap between band and DJ.

Service area
My service area stretches from Moers to Kamp-Lintfort, Neukirchen-Vluyn, Rheinberg and Duisburg. If you cannot find your town here, the list further down will help.
The date, the venue and a rough guest count are enough for me to start. In the video call you tell me how the day should look, and I say what fits musically. A few days before the celebration I call you once more, and we fix the last timings.

Party classics like Ballermann, après-ski and schlager hits?
I'm happy to play the odd one of those when the mood is right.
Building the whole evening on them, though, isn't for me.
There are other DJs who love doing exactly that, and do it well.
They are the right choice for it.
I have nothing against them.
It's just not my thing.
My field is live mixing at demanding events.
For guests who see music as a craft.
Clean transitions.
The right track for the right moment.
More than just pressing play.
If that doesn't suit you, I'm not the right DJ, and that's perfectly fine.
If it does, I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Write to me, and your wedding will get music that stays in your guests' ears. For dates between May and September you should ask early; outside the peak season a lead time of a few months is often enough for me.
