Describe your DJ style:
Our DJ style is to be professional and fun, without going over the edge into the "cheesy" behavior that people can't stand. The show is focused on you, not us!
What is your usual attire?
Shirt/Tie. Tuxedo if requested. We do not try and outdress the wedding party, as the focus should be on them.
If you do not have one of the songs pre-requested by the client, do you require that they provide it?
No, we can download nearly any song as long as it's available on the internet. If the song is not not available, we will look at all available resources including retail purchase, borrowing from a library, or borrowing from another DJ that we have a relationship with.
How many other DJs do you work with?
Currently our staff consists of 4 lead DJ's and 4 assistant DJ's.
What is the minimum amount of time you will DJ for?
Most of our packages are priced for 5 hours, but we are flexible based on the client needs.
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?
Yes, as long as we can meet in the greater Akron or Cleveland area at a time and place that is mutually agreeable to everyone.
Do you specialize in any ethnic or international events?
We can customize the music to any ethnic nationality and also work alongside any musicians that you hire in addition to us.
Do you bring your own equipment?
We own all of our equipment and have been in business since 1988.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
We offer light shows, satellite sound systems, wireless mics, video screens, and karaoke.
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?
Most setups take an hour or two unless there are unusual obstacles like multiple floors, downtown buildings, etc. We do not require tables or anything else from the venue. Just outlets to plug into.
Do you have any extra space requirements?
Video screens require extra space because the projector is behind the screen as these are rear projection units. Our 6 foot diagonal screen requires about 8 feet of depth and our 8.5 feet diagonal screen requires about 12 feet of depth.
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
Yes, we try and guide the event to make it an enjoyable and worry free evening for the client. Of course, we avoid all the "chessy" DJ talk, you have probably heard at too many weddings already.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
Dinner is appreciated, but not required. Seating vendors together at your wedding also allows for additional coordination of your reception events to follow and puts everyone at ease working as a team.
Will you arrange for recorded music to play during your breaks?
NA; this question applies to a band.
What is your backup plan in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
Yes, we never overbook ourselves, so extra company personnel (not subcontractors) and backup equipment are available.
What is your overtime rate?
$25.00-$50.00 per half hour in most cases depending on the package selected. Please see our website for further details.
Do you charge for travel expenses? If yes, how much do you charge?
If the event is over 50 miles away, there is $1.00 per mile surcharge starting with mile 51. We will use mapquest.com to determine the best practical highway route and mileage from point a to point b. Please see our website for further details on this.
