When will the DJ's arrive for my event?
Your DJ(s) will arrive at least an hour and a half prior to start time as indicated in the contract when location permits it. Sometimes we have had event halls tell us we were not allowed in for setup until thirty minutes before the start. We encourage you to speak with the hall to allow adiquite setup time before guests arrive.
We don't want to be setting up equipment and have Aunt Betty trip on something.
Do you charge for setup and tear down time of equipment?
Not at all, your purchased time will reflect the time indicated on the contract.
What if we want the DJ to stay longer?
Unless the location prevents this from happening, we are more than willing to continue playing. This will fall in the additional hourly rate, however, and we will require a payment for the additional time, prior to continuing.
What do I have to know before I arrive at the event?
You need to know that now is the time to have some fun. Based on all the meetings and sharing of information, we will have a solid grasp on what the evening will include and involve. If we have any last minute questions or if you have any last minute suggestions or questions, we always will double check all items before presenting it to your event/guests.
When is my balance due?
Unless paid in full up front, the ballance is due two (2) weeks before the event date.
Should I be concerned about what types of music you play?
Not at all, remember we are here for "your" event and you have control over what is heard and what is not heard. If there are songs or a grouping of songs you wish to not have played we will respect that and it will be honored. Keep in mind, we are not "Radio DJ's" playing what we want to hear, if that were true we would refer you to a boombox for your event.
How are announcements handled?
We will take plenty of time before your event to go over any announcements you may have. This includes names, special dedications, etc...
The DJ will also take the time at the event before the announcement is made to go over the names or dedication one more time to ensure accuracy.
Do we have to rush through anything or do we have to keep a time schedule while at the event?
No way, as long as the event starts and ends per the contract you are free to do or have anything happen at any time. Remember this is "your" event on your time table. If you want a few extra minutes to walk around and speak with people before a dance, lets say, take the time. We will always come to you and let you know when something is scheduled to happen, such as dinner serving time, or photographs, or dances. You will be "in the loop" for the entire evening!
I have been to an event where some guests got roudy, how do you handle this?
Unfortunatley this may happen, we have delt with this in the past, too many rum and coca cola's and look out! We do not want this ruining your evening, so we will first take the approach of telling the individual to please refrain from what they are doing, then we will approach a family member or bridal party member and explan the situation, only once have we had to use the power of the microphone to calm a situation. We will turn the music down and request that the individual please be controlled and we will continue the dancing after. The crowd does not want to stop having fun and dancing so, the situation extinguishes itself very fast. We do have a strict policy about people being up and around the DJ area, and this is for our and your guests safety.
