Pricing for Wedding Receptions and Ceremonies In Raleigh North Carolina
Area:
Don't you hate it when you get on the Internet
and can't get the price? It's just like getting into the checkout line and
not being able to check out because the tag is missing!
THE VALUE:
There are no hidden fees, no set
up or tear down charges. These ARE the prices! This may look expensive
to you, until you consider the cost of BAD entertainment or poorly planned
events. Consider this. If your guests leave after 2 hours, and you spend
money for 4 hours on your event, you will have felt that you
LOST half of your money solely due to bad entertainment, or worse, NO
entertainment. Consider your choice of entertainment an insurance policy
that gives you confidence that all of the other money you spend will NOT
be wasted.
I would ask you to think about these two questions with
respect to your event:
> On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is your entertainer
to the success of your event?
> Why not just show up and "Wing it" and let whatever
happens happen?
Not all DJ companies do the same thing. Contrary
to popular belief, we are not a commodity, and we all offer varying
levels of service...and quality. Make sure that your choice of entertainers
not only are a 8 ,9, or 10(if that's your choice), but display the
needed attention to detail and meticulous planning that you deserve!!
You do not want to wing it, and neither do we.
Our Number 1 Goal is ALWAYS the SUCCESS of
your event.
Show pricing ALWAYS includes the
following Features:
- Pre event
consultation with me in person and/or speaking
by phone or EVEN Email.
- Creating event planners, and coordinating
all of the details of your show.
- Picking the music and format of the show.
- Coordination with your other professionals
such as your caterer, and photographer to ensure a smooth seamless transition
from one phase of your event to the next.
- DJ service with or without lights,
your choice of music formats, and interactivity as needed.
- Emcee and time management
- Referral Services. I
know a lot of talented professionals that I am proud
to be associated with in the wedding reception industry, such as Cake
makers, videography companies, photographers, caterers, flower arrangers
and event suppliers. I can be a one stop shop. Go to the
Links and resources
page and check it out.
- Experience. Flexibility to change
on the fly as the situation changes is also very important. I know that sudden
changes can be disconcerting and even upsetting. I can minimize these issues
and continue to make the evening seamless. A plan is good, but what happens
if the plan has to change? Can the DJ you choose handle sudden changes?

OTHER Details
TRAVEL: For travel to locations
more than 1 hour away from Raleigh, North Carolina, we add on
$75.00 per hour charge for
travel. If the event is a very late one,
and far away, we may request to add the cost of a hotel room near the location
of your event in lieu of travel pay.
OVERTIME: We won't shut down
on the dot of the hour if people are dancing in the middle of a song. We
will work with you prior to the contracted stop time to see if you want overtime
and how much.
CONTRACT: You should
ALWAYS be assured that your special event is covered by a contract. One of
the saddest things we hear about is when a frantic client calls asking for
an emergency fill in because a contract was not signed with another service.
You should never do business and place your event or your most important
day at risk without the security of knowing that you have a contract in place
with a professional DJ. You should avoid doing business with a DJ service
that does not clearly explain his/her contract and/or offers to book you
without a written detailed contract. All contracts are signed with
a 1/2 retainer
fee based on the total
amount of the services requested, and the balances are
DUE AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE SHOW
DATE.
PRESENTATIONS: We will
come out to visit you at a location of your choosing, or you can visit us
at the office. My presentation consists of materials that we will use to
plan and execute your event with and a laptop PC presentation. During this
presentation to you, you will receive a sample of our contract form, a planner,
references, and a copy of our pricing information. It also consists of answering
openly and honestly ALL of your questions. You can bring anyone you like
to see this presentation and I will show you what value we can bring to your
special event. These visits are free of charge. After all, it’s important
that we "click". It’s important that we can trust each other and work together
to make your event come off just the way you want it to.
