Yes - $1 million. Most other DJ's don't, but it's required by most venues.

 

Why are you so inexpensive?

With most DJ companies you'll speak with the Main Guy (The Owner and Salesman) who will NEVER give you a price up front. It's an old sales technique - have a Top Price, a Middle Price and a Bottom Line Price. He'll try to sell you on the Top Price, then get you to "Settle somewhere in the Middle" (don't believe me? call around for quotes!). Also, he'll charge you $1400.00, then you'll get a call from one of his "Auxiliary DJ's" a few days before the wedding. He has to pay that kid and still keep a nice profit (Does that kid have stellar references?).

 

I will work personally with you, and perform the Wedding myself. That way, all the planning can be executed just AS YOU WANT IT. And I don't think $900 is inexpensive! Read the Testimonials - these brides could not have dreamed of a better wedding! Remember, these salesmen will ask if you would trust your Big Day to someone charging less than $1000. YES! They'll send out a kid for much more, without ANY personalized service! Read the Testimonials, Please! There's never a reason to overpay! I PROMISE you a great wedding!

I Promise to care as much about the wedding as the Bride and Groom. Always provide great, interactive fun (I have been known to get onto the dancefloor!), always the best music from any era, always with a mind to what keeps people dancing all night! Together we plan your night, so you'll hear all your favorite music. It's really a sharing experience! PS...I DON'T Embarrass Anybody!

No limit! I try hard to get any reasonable request in. The night belongs to the crowd! I welcome Client Song Lists.

Tuxedo, of course! But I can wear almost anything upon request!

Only if I cannot find the song (very rarely happens!); also, I can download requests immediately at any event! I take requests all night, to ensure your guests a great time!

I play most of the weddings with an extra DJ- and I have 2 others DJ's if I'm overbooked, but I ALWAYS tell the bride about this during our initial meeting. I bring an assistant DJ to every show so I can be on the floor during all announcements.

Any.

 

Do you share the Bride's Plan with other Vendors (Photographers, Coordinators, etc)?

ABSOLUTELY! After we meet (about two weeks before the wedding), I type an Itinerary/Timeline based on everything the Bride/Groom wish to have at the Reception. I can then email/mail this to the Bride, photographer, Venue Coordinator - anybody who needs it. Then, on the day of the reception, I go over the plan with the Venue Coordinator (first dances, cake-cutting, etc). Finally, I'll spend some time with the Photographer before we begin. This is crucial; he/she will know exactly what we're doing, so they don't miss a thing! I work closely with the photographer all night.

 

Absolutely! I always meet with clients, either at David's Bridal store (I'm a Preferred Vendor there) or at their homes, before they book me. It's absolutely necessary for the couple. Then we meet again to Plan the wedding about 1-2 weeks before the event. We use the Wedding Coordination Worksheet at this time.

*We meet Face-to-Face about 2 weeks before the Wedding to really PLAN the Reception, so that the client gets exactly what THEY WANT (Remember, It's YOUR Wedding!). Full Client Song lists are welcome!

I can play any Special Ethnic Music, as long as I can prepare beforehand. Italian, Spanish, Jewish, etc.

Absolutely. I encourage it.

I bring and use great sound equipment and lighting to every show. Also, I ALWAYS bring back-up equipment.

I always bring a Full Light show, including Vue 3 color LED lights, Chauvet Mushroom, plus 2 Chauvet Wash lights, if needed, swirling pulsing color, etc. It adds to the experience! This basic set-up, very effective - Add $100!

I always arrive at least 1 hour before the event. The venue will provide me with a table and an electrical outlet.

no.

Absolutely not! It's the Bride/Groom's Big Day, not an opportunity for self-promotion! Besides, a Big DJ sign in the middle of the reception is tacky! If guests like me they can ask for a card.

I speak when necessary...Announcements, Cake-Cutting, Bouquet, Anniversary Dance, maybe a bit to get the crowd up. Mostly I let the Music do the talking!

I'd play the best music, and ask them to dance! It helps if the Bride/Groom/Party are out on the floor. Also, a nice interactive Cha-Cha or Cupid Shuffle (line dance) will get them up! Add in some audience participation, and maybe a Pulp Fiction Twist Contest or Paradise by the Dashboard Light Girl/Guy Shout-off! Finally, a couple love songs always seem to pull them from their chairs.

I don't take breaks. A meal is greatly appreciated for me and my assistant, but I eat while I work!

If I need some time away from the set-up I always seamlessly play recorded music.

Again, I have 2 very experienced DJ's working for me. Either one will be happy to fill in. I have not missed an event in 20 years!

Never. The day belongs to that Special Couple only. That way we can plan the day togther.

$100 every hour exceeding 5 hours.

No.

Yes, generally half total cost, the rest due by the Wedding Day. However, I work closely with the bride and groom if they cannot afford half up front.
