What do the different pricing tiers mean?
Our DJs are priced according to experience, performance ability, and popularity. While all of our DJs are naturally fun and outgoing people, they have different levels of Emcee skills, music mixing skills, and ease of interacting with a large group of people. Popularity is a big factor in the price, just like other areas of the entertainment business – the greater demand for a specific talent – the higher the price. All of our DJs are great with customer service and will plan out your event directly with you, tailoring the music and activities to meet your specific taste and wishes. So, for example, our Elite DJs are our the most experienced, and the Essential DJs are either just starting out in the DJ career or “new-to-us” DJs.

What’s included in the price of the DJ?
The DJ’s base rates include: 5 hours of DJ as well as Emcee services, a planning meeting with the DJ, full professional quality sound equipment including mics if needed, and “party lights” (lights used during dancing – NOT the UpLighting which is a separate charge) if desired!

How far do you travel?
We offer free travel for up to 50 miles or 1 hour from the entertainer’s home location. For anything outside our free travel radius, a travel fee will apply. Travel fees are calculated by the office. We have travelled all over New England for events, but generally will not travel to events further than 3 hours from the entertainers home location.

Can the DJ play the ceremony music?
As long as your ceremony is being held at the same function hall as your reception, absolutely! We call this an “on-site ceremony”. There is no additional charge for this as long as your full event fits within a 5 hour block of time. If more than 5 hours are needed the DJ’s overtime rate would apply. Overtime rates are listed beneath the 5 hour base rates on our price list. The DJ’s have a 2nd, smaller system they will use for ceremonies, so they can have their main system set up and ready to go in your reception area.
If your ceremony is being held off-site, we have a wide variety of ceremony musicians to choose from!

Will I have a meeting with my DJ?
Absolutely! We call this the “details meeting”. This meeting takes place about 4 weeks prior to your event date, and we will send you a packet to help prepare. Want to meet or speak with your DJ sooner? No problem! Just let the office know and we will help set something up.

Can I meet the DJs before booking?
Yes! Please do! We want you to be as confident in your DJ as we are. The best way to meet with our DJs is to attend one of our Entertainment Showcases, but we are also happy to help arrange private meetings instead. Not local? Not a problem! We are happy to arrange phone and/or virtual interviews. We have worked with couples from all over the world!

What kind of music do you have?
Everything! Yes, we have a gigantic music library of all categories, and we update weekly to ensure the most current requests. Our DJs know their music! From throwback oldies to the most current dance songs, they will create music sets that energize you & your guests of all ages, keeping the dance floor packed all night long!

What kind of equipment do the DJs use?
Our DJs use professional sound systems enclosed in custom-built soundstages to ensure the highest sound quality and a polished professional appearance. Our Pro speakers project crystal clear sound at any level and our “Party Lighting” will enhance the party atmosphere at no extra charge! You can add our UpLighting to your event for an extra fee.

How will the DJ dress for my event?
Every DJ is always dressed in a suit or tuxedo for weddings and black tie events, and suits for anniversary, birthdays, and corporate event unless otherwise requested by the client.

What is your cancellation policy?
All retainer fees are non-refundable and not transferable, and if the event cancels within 59 days prior to the event date the full balance will still be due to your entertainer. This will be clearly stated in the terms & conditions on your contract. Since we do not offer refunds, we try to offer as many resources as possible to make you comfortable and confident in your DJ choice. Whether that be meeting your DJ face-to-face, a phone meeting, or even speaking to past clients, we will provide you with all the info you need!
