It can vary, it\u2019s best to call or email with your date, times, and location.\u00a0 A general guideline would be $600-800 for 4 hours holidays not included.<\/p>\n

Most people book their DJ from 4-6 months or more in advance, however, on many occasions we book dates just a few weeks ahead of time.<\/p>\n

As much or as little as you want. We have a very non-cheesy style and typically we will get your guests to clap their hands or sing along to certain parts of songs, but seriously, it\u2019s nothing more than that.\u00a0 Our goal is to keep the spotlight on you and your guests and not us.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not necessary.\u00a0 We know that additional meal is going to be pricey.\u00a0 If you offer it will be accepted, but don\u2019t feel obligated.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s your choice. Your DJ can wear tuxedo, a suit and tie, or something more casual if your event calls for it.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t allow this due to the privacy of our clients and their events. However, we can provide you with some testimonials and references from recent clients who were very delighted with our services.<\/p>\n

We always have equipment and DJs in reserve just in case of illness or something unforeseen. We realize how important we are to the success of your event and we are very careful not to take any chances.<\/p>\n

We will be there about an hour in advance. It takes about 20 minutes to set up our equipment, so in the unlikely event of any technical problems, we can solve them well before the start of your event.<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”If I want certain songs that aren\u2019t on your online request list, will you get them?” title=”If I want certain songs that aren\u2019t on your online request list, will you get them?” open=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” closed_toggle_background_color=”#fbdff8″ icon_color=”#512053″ title_text_color=”#512053″]<\/p>\n
We probably already have them as we obtain new music all the time, if we don\u2019t, we will certainly get them for you.<\/p>\n

We try not to overdo it.\u00a0 We feel your guests are not interested in hearing our disc jockey \u201cham it up\u201d over the microphone. While we make all the announcements with our microphone, it is not uncommon to see us out among your guests encouraging requests.<\/p>\n

Sure, and at a very little extra cost for a basic light show. If requested, we can supply different effects.<\/p>\n

The only advertising we will do is place a small stack of business cards on the DJ table. We will display a 2.5′ x 6′ banner behind the DJ table that has our DJ logo on it. We don\u2019t treat your reception as an infomercial for our company.\u00a0 More often than not, prospective clients approach us, not the other way around.<\/p>\n

We accept changes in event dates, except holidays, provided the new date is available. There is no such thing as \u201cbooking too early\u201d. If you book a date with us, and end up changing the date, we will put the amount you have paid toward your other date, as long as we have the date open.<\/p>\n

Yes, we carry more than the standard amount of liability and equipment insurance. An entertainment company that is uninsured is most likely not a full time professional.<\/p>\n

We love a good party, for evening events; it\u2019s never a problem but there will be an additional $50 per half hour increments. For daytime events, we suggest booking the DJ ahead of time (we may have an evening event afterwards).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s completely your decision, but occasionally we do receive tips from happy clients, usually in amount between $40-$60, but once again, it\u2019s your call.<\/p>\n
