Frequently
Asked Questions
Before the Reception | At
the Reception
Q: How do I book my date?
A: First, please contact us and
verify that we are still available. We
have the capacity to provide service
for up to 7 events per day in 2007 and
dates with up to 3 spots available have
booked out in a day. Please DO
NOT just send in your deposit in. Once
you have confirmed we are still
available, a $100 minimum deposit will
secure service. We ask that you
include both your and your fiancé's
last name, along with the date, in
the memo portion of your check (or in
the notes section if your deposit is
made online).
Q:
Why do we need 2 DJ's at our
reception?
A: When we say we take care of
everything for you on your wedding
day, we really mean it. A great
example of this is the grand
entrance (when you make your
entrance at the beginning of your
reception). While one DJ is lining
up you and your bridal party in the
lobby, reconfirming the
pronunciation of names and making
sure all are present and accounted
for, the other DJ is preparing the
music for the grand entrance,
notifying the photographer you will
be entering momentarily, notifying
the hall the best man's toast is
right after the entrance so it can
be poured, as well as
getting all of your guests seated. A
lot is happening in a short amount
of time. Coordination
between the two DJs is a necessity. For more
see Why
The Crew.
Q: How much are The DJ Crew
services?
A: Pricing
is based on when the event takes
place (time of year/day of
week), geographic location (if the
event is within our normal area of
coverage), and the type of event.
We do offer reduced rates for
non-Saturday events as well as
off-season dates.
Our base contracts are based on 5
hours of service for a wedding
reception.
This is the recommended minimum
number of hours.

Q: How early do you set up, and
is that included in your playing
time?
A: We usually arrive about an
hour before our playing time. This
allows us to coordinate and confirm
events and times with the hall,
photographer, etc. If necessary we
will make arrangements to set up
earlier if it conflicts with the
arrival of your guests. Set up
and break down time do not infringe
on your contracted play time.
Q:
What if you don't have a song that
we want?
A: This is one of the main
reasons we discuss your event in
advance. If we do not have a song
in our current music catalog, we
have multiple resources available to us to
ensure we can acquire it. Brides
and grooms sometimes wish to
bring a few CDs for us to mix into
flow of the evening, which is fine
with us too. It's your day!
Q:
Can you provide ceremony music?
A: Yes. We approach ceremony
music with the same detail and
exactness we would your first dance.
Q:
Are you insured?
A: Yes.
Q: How long have you been in
business?
A: We have been in business
since 1998, incorporated in 2000.

you have a question that wasn't
answered here, please contact
