Questions & Answers
Do you bring backup equipment to the event? Do you have backup djs in case of sickness? YES! We do! All our equipment is backed up along with back up DJs..
How many months in advance do I need to reserve your services for my wedding date? You can book a gig as early as 1 week out as long as that date is available. I recommend that you book a lot earlier then that so I can get all of your song requests as well as other event requests prepared in time..
Can your DJ MC our event? Can you provide a microphone? I can DJ and MC. I have hired a friend of mine that is an MC to do events in which there is a lot of interaction with the guests..
What are your standard payment terms? Cash or Checks. Sorry I don't accept credit cards at this time..
What is your event cancellation policy? A $100 nonrefundable deposit is required to reserve the date. If you cancel you are still required to pay half of the total event cost. You can reschedule at no extra charge as long as your new date is already taken..
What type of equipment do you use? What special feature (lighting, etc) can you provide? Matrix 2000 sound system. I have used this to play outdoors and it has worked very well. Lighting is no extra charge..
We want to meet and talk to the DJ that will be at our wedding reception, is that a problem? Not a problem at all. I recommend that we meet. I have planned events without meeting, but only in cases where the bride and groom were both coming from out of town to have their reception here..
How early do you typically arrive before an event? 1 Hour before your guests arrive. It usually takes about 30-45 minutes to setup..
How many weddings do you perform each year? 20-30 a year. I also do school dances and proms which can take up Saturdays as well..
Can guests make song requests? How many (and what types) of CDs will the DJ bring to the event? I am more than happy to take requests. All my music is digital with back ups..
Do we need to provide a meal for the DJ during the event? You don't have to but it is very appreciative..
What happens prior to the wedding? When do you need our song list? In order to book a gig, I first recommend that we meet. Second, in order to reserve a date a $100 deposit plus the signing of a contract is needed. When we first meet I can go through all the steps and process of a reception so you know exactly what you can or don't want to do. I request a song list at least two weeks before the event..
Do you disc jockeys take any breaks or pauses from playing music? I don't take breaks from playing music. If I need a short break I can put a song on that's about 5 minutes long and I can go get something to drink or use the restroom. Your music will never be stopped during the dancing period of your event..
What standard attire will the DJ wear to my function? May I request that the DJ wear a tuxedo? Most of the time my guests are fine with me wearing a dress shirt, pants and shoes. Some more formal events people have asked me to wear a tux. I will always ask how you want me to dress because some people don't want a DJ to be over or under dressed..
How many DJs do you have on staff? What is your qualification for hiring DJs I am currently the only DJ that I staff. I have an MC that I can hire for particular events if needed..
What makes you different from other local disc jockeys? Why should someone hire you? I work with you one on one so that none of your event plans are messed up. I have a large variety of music from the 50s to present including: Classical music for dinner, along with Rock, Rap, Hip hop, Country, and all your favorite oldies..
