Describe your DJ style:
It's up to you! I can be low key, moderate, or be a little more involved. I am well spoken, unobtrusive, and completely organized.
What is your usual attire?
I wear a very classy suit, otherwise for black tie weddings I have a tuxedo.
If you do not have one of the songs pre-requested by the client, do you require that they provide it?
I have 5 music subscriptions, so it's rare I can't find a song. I do except MP3's, WAV, or CD's for any impossible to find selections.
How many other DJs do you work with?
Because of my reputation and high standards, I have chosen to fly solo allowing me the ability to focus on each individuals.
What is the minimum amount of time you will DJ for?
Does not matter, however little or much time you need. Usually a ceremony is 1/2 hour to an hour, cocktail is an hour, and a reception is typically 3-4 hours.
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?
Yes. Beware of companies who will not do this. Also stay away from companies who put you on a "Dj rotation" schedule or who do not guarantee YOUR personal DJ will be the one to show up.
Do you specialize in any ethnic or international events?
Yes ( I have done Latin, Irish, Indian, Polish, Jewish, Arabic and a variety of mixed weddings).
Do you bring your own equipment?
Yes. I bring the highly acclaimed BOSE sound systems along with Pioneer, Denon, and other respected professional grade names.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
FREE lighting effects - period. I also have extra equipment available for your ceremony & cocktail hour.
How much time do you usually need to set up? Do you require that the site or client provide a table for you to set up on?
I always arrive 2 hours early and I will work with your venue and wedding coordinator beforehand on all and any important details.
Do you have any extra space requirements?
No. This is the great thing about the new innovative BOSE system that I carry. Little space, great look, & superb sound.
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
I am your master of ceremonies and your personal spokesperson. I make it my duty to know everything and every angle of your wedding so I am completely prepared.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
No, but is a nice gesture. You do not have to purchase a meal for me.
Will you arrange for recorded music to play during your breaks?
N/A
What is your backup plan in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
Yes. I network with many other companies in 5 different states in case of an emergency.
What is your overtime rate?
$100 per hour (and you won't see me rushing to leave or packing up early)
Do you charge for travel expenses? If yes, how much do you charge?
Only if it's over 100 miles. Hey, I go anywhere in the world!
