Do you provide a written contract?
YES. We provide you with a contract that clearly defines the terms of agreement (the "who, what, when, where, why and how much" of the event). There is no fine print, add-ons or confusing legal terms. It is a simple contract in plain language. The contract is available in paper, or digital form that can be filled out on your computer. You can sign and save the digital contract on your computer and also print it out if needed.
Can you provide the music for my wedding ceremony at one location, and my reception at a different location?
YES. Whether the ceremony and reception are in the same room, inside and outside at the same venue, or in two different venues, We can provide full service at both locations.
Can you record our vows at the ceremony, and the speeches and toasts at the reception?
YES. We can record the vows, speeches and toasts. The Bride, Groom and Officiant will all have wireless mics. There are 4 hand-held wireless microphones available for speeches and toasts. Access to the hand-held wireless mics requires approval by you (there's a place on the planner for that). I host the recordings on my server (no public access) and send you a private link that you can share with everyone. You/they can also download the audio files and do with them as you wish.
My church wedding has the music provided by the church, but the reception is at a different location. Can you just record the ceremony audio without providing any of the ceremony music?
YES. With the approval of the church, We can set up discreetly, possibly in an adjacent room. We would only need my equipment rack, my portable recorder and an AC outlet. No cables or speakers are needed.
My venue requires an Acord 25 Form (proof of insurance). Can you provide this form for my venue?
YES. Many venues require vendors (DJ, Caterer, Photographer, Live Band etc) to carry liability insurance, and to be able to add the venue as an additional insured. Our policy meets those requirements.
Do you use a written event planner?
YES. We use comprehensive, detailed planners for the wedding ceremony and/or the reception. These planners assist you in defining exactly what you want, when you want it and what music you want before/during it. Your planners are the "blueprints" for your events. The reception planner also allows you to list "MUST PLAY" and "DO NOT PLAY" songs. The planners are easily customized to meet your specific needs. We work closely with all other vendors at your event to keep them aware of where we are at on your planner and what is coming up next. This helps ensure that your reception flows smoothly and exactly as you have planned. Each event planner is specific to the type of event it is for. No changes are made to your written planner without your approval. The planners are available in paper and digital form.
Do you provide song lists to assist me in selecting the music for my event?
YES. We provide you with 21 comprehensive lists of suggested songs for all parts of your event that might be enhanced
by music, such as the Wedding Party Introductions, the Bouquet Toss or the Bride & Groom First Dance. We also have specific lists for the top slow dance songs, the top country songs and the top party songs.
You can find all 21 of our wedding and party song lists on theSong Listspage. The lists contain the most-requested and most-popular songs, and are only a small portion of our music library. You can listen to a 30 second sample of each of the songs on the lists. You are not limited to the songs on our lists. Please choose any songs that you want.
Do you have a wide variety of music?
YES. Our Music Library contains over 15,000 songs featuring Classic Rock, Oldies, Country, R&B Jazz and the current hits too. We ask you what your musical tastes are and what types of music or specific songs you find offensive. If a song is offensive to you, or you dislike a certain type of music, we won't play it. Our goal is to play what you and your guests want to hear. All of the songs on our lists are the "radio-edit" versions played on radio. With your prior approval and with respect for your tastes, we will welcome requests from your guests.
Do you have a mirror ball?
YES. We have a classic 16" mirror ball illuminated by (2) 60w LED multicolor spotlights. The mirror ball stand has a heavy flat metal base (not a tripod!) and a telescoping metal pole with mirror ball mount. It will be located directly behind the DJ to save floor space and eliminate a tripping hazard for your guests.
Do you bring back-up equipment?
YES. We bring 2 complete sound systems to every event. Our sound and lighting systems are professional quality and have built-in redundancy, so failure of one component will not stop the music or lights. We maintain our own equipment and have never had an equipment failure at an event. We upgrade and replace equipment on a regular basis.
Do you perform the "Master of Ceremony" duties?
YES. We are very experienced at public speaking and are happy to make any and all announcments and introductions that you desire, or you may designate
someone. Four (4) hand-held wireless microphones are available for use by you and your guests for toasts, speeches and other announcements. Persons requesting the use of the microphone must
be approved by you.
How much do you interact with my guests?
We keep your guests informed of everything that is planned throughout the event. We will glady coordinate any special events that we discuss during our meetings. We do NOT go to your guests and drag them to the dance floor, put hats on them, shove a microphone in their face, make them play games or embarass them or you in any way. We keep the focus where it belongs: on you and your celebration, not on us. None of your guests are there to see us!
Will you meet with me in person to help me plan the music for my event?
YES. We will meet with you at your convenience to assist you in planning the music for your event. You also have the option of meeting by phone. As all of our forms are available digitally, meeting by phone is very easy and convenient! We will meet with you multiple times if necessary. Our goal is to provide the exact entertainment that you desire. There is never a charge for any meetings with you.
Will your attire be appropriate for my event?
YES. Dress is appropriate for the event and is discussed with you in advance.
Do you bring an assistant?
YES. I bring an assistant to all events. The assistant takes control of the music during those times that I am speaking with you, your caterer or your photographer. This helps ensure that your event flows smoothly.
Can I come to your next event and see you and your equipment set-up?
You are welcome to attend any "OPEN TO THE PUBLIC" event where we are providing the musical entertainment. We do not invite prospective clients to "PRIVATE" events such as wedding receptions, corporate parties, etc. You can see photos of our set up and uplighting on thePhotospage. This configuration eliminates the use of tripods which take up valuable floor space and can be easy to trip over if not set up properly. All speakers and equipment cabinets are a black matte finish with plain dark grey grills. The table is covered with a pleated black skirt that covers the top and all sides of the equipment table. We do not display any advertising or signs. With your approval, we display a small, plain, business card holder on our equipment table.
Do you book events, then subcontract them to other DJs?
