Describe your DJ style:
Elegant is the key during Cocktails & Dinner time. We provide MC Services during that time. The dance is fun and interactive - our goal is to include as many of your guests in the dance as possible all evening. We play a variety of well known songs, and take requests all evening as well.
What is your usual attire?
I require dress slacks, and a dress shirt, and sportcoat. No flip-flops and aloha shirts. Ive seen those shows - that's not our style here.
If you do not have one of the songs pre-requested by the client, do you require that they provide it?
No. We go buy it. If the bride has a unique song that she wants to bring, they are welcome to do that. Every case is different.
How many other DJs do you work with?
We have 16 Celebrity DJs to choose from. Most of them are well-known Radio & Club Personalities.
What is the minimum amount of time you will DJ for?
3 hours.
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?
Of course. We either do a phone conference, or arrange for a face to face meeting if our brides prefer that. Either way, I guarantee a final walk-through call the Monday or Tuesday prior to the event date to double check every detail.
Do you specialize in any ethnic or international events?
We have been handling specialized cultural events for years.
Do you bring your own equipment?
We bring everything needed, except for a table to set up on. We have table covers, so everything looks elegant and professional after we are set up.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
We do not reccomend bubble machines, the soap residue on the dance floor is very dangerous and slippery. Other than that, we usually dont bring strobe due to elderly guests having a risk of seisure, and smoke machines are usually saved for school dances. The smoke smells bad, and also really causes problems for photographers and videographers trying to get clear shots.
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?
We arrange for the DJ to arrive 60-90 minutes prior to the first guests. Typical set up takes 30-45 minutes. The rest of the time is to change clothes and allow for a sound check. We do require a table to set up on. a 5-7 foot rectangular banquet is best
Do you have any extra space requirements?
Typical space for aste-up is 14 ft wide and 6-8 feet deep. We are flexible and can make it work in smaller spaces, but it is very helpful to not forget about your DJ when planning your floor plan.
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
Absolutely. Our mission is to keep the night moving along smoothly with no "awkward moments" or "awkward pauses".
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
The Event Planning Form has a box that can be checked if the client would like to provide a meal for the DJ. It's not required, but always appreciated. A typical work day for a dj is 10-12 hours. The DJ usually eats in the DJ booth area very discretely, and keeps the music going while he eats.
Will you arrange for recorded music to play during your breaks?
N/A No Breaks.
What is your backup plan in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
We keep 4 of the DJs unbooked just for such an occasion. What mainly happens is that we pick up brides that were dumped a few before their wedding date by other DJ companies.
What is your overtime rate?
Overtime is $50 per hour after the 4 hour dance, and is pay-as-you-go directly to the DJ.
Do you charge for travel expenses? If yes, how much do you charge?
Travel is $1 per mile ONE WAY ONLY. We use www.mapsonus.com as our basis for calculating mileage charges.
