Can I supply my own music for the DJ to play at our event?
Yes of course! Although we have pretty much all genres of music already in our libraries from, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, classics, rock n roll, jazz, latin, dance favourites to all the latest hits and more! If you have a specific order that needs to be played, you can simply list the songs you want played out, or if it’s really specialized music (like Japanese pop) then you are welcome to supply the DJ with music either on a burned CD or USB on the night.
Can we extend our DJ and music after the initial 5 hours on the night?
Yes. $120/per hour for additional time after the 5 hours for DJs and $200/per additional hour for photobooths. We charge a minimum of an hours rate when extending, even if you extend for less than that time.
Do you offer Master of Ceremonies (MC) Services?
Yes. We have specialty trained Wedding DJs that dual as your MC and are well versed on the microphone for wedding reception formalities. They can coordinate the timing of these formalities during the night in addition to making announcements to get people involved. Our DJs also coordinate with the caterers and photographers (for timing) when conducting MC services. It really makes a difference and we have one of the best MC services around!

What will the DJ wear?
The DJ will wear to suit to the occasion. We can dress formal, semi-formal, smart-casual, casual or even themed. Every DJ is well put together, well groomed and professional.
I’m hiring a band, do I need a DJ too?
Of course yes. Bands cannot play 100% of the time as they need rest, and typically take 15-30min breaks between their sets. In addition bands play for much shorter time, so if you have a 4-5 hour even, bands typically only play half that, so its highly recommended to have a DJ to play before, during breaks and after a band finishes to avoid ‘dead air’
