Question 5

How does the planning process work?

Accepted Answer

To start you have full access to your DJ 24/7 to email/text/call them. We then have one on one meetings to discuss the plans for the day of the wedding. Tying all this communication together is our wedding planning app which makes laying out all the music, notes, and timeline super easy! https://youtu.be/o5ZHVn_M8s8

Question 6

Do you accept requests?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We do take song requests and do our best to squeeze them in just so long as they are appropriate.  So if we get a song or genre that you specified in your "Don't Play" section of the planning app, we won't play it. If someone requests a song that fits well with your vibe and music choices, the DJ may play it. It is important to remember that your DJ is an event professional. They know which tracks get the dance floor going and which ones may clear it out.

Question 7

How soon do I need to book a DJ?

Accepted Answer

ASAP!! Without missing out on a great DJ. Most couples book all their vendors 12 months in advance of their wedding.

But if you cannot, we suggest booking 6-9 months before your event.

We stress to all the couples we speak to, book all your important vendors (photographer, venue, florist, and DJ) as soon as you possibly can. This also means you’ll get your first pick rather than having to settle.

Question 8

Do we get to know and meet our DJ before booking?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Your DJ is the most important part and we want you to feel comfortable with your choice!

Question 9

What are your payment terms?

Accepted Answer

We require a deposit and the signing of a contract at the time of booking to secure the date. The final balance is due 30 days prior to the event date. Payments can be made through our secure portal with a credit or debit card. As an alternative, you can always mail a check.

We also accept other ways to pay your balance :
- 4 installment payments (splitting a payment into four equal installments)
- 100% full payment

It's important to note that we do not charge credit card fees, and there are no hidden fees associated with our payment methods.

Question 10

How early do you arrive for the wedding?

Accepted Answer

We always show up 2 to 3 hours early. We only normally need an hour to set up, but we like the extra time to talk over the plans with your other vendors and make sure we are all on the same page!

Question 11

What equipment do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use only top-of-the-line professional mobile DJ equipment. Battery-operated speakers for ceremonies, Pro audio speakers for the reception, DJ controllers, Mackbook Pro Laptops, and wireless handheld microphones for toast and speeches

Question 12

Are you insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we carry liability insurance and can provide a certificate of insurance for your venue if needed.
