What if my timings change after I've booked you?
As we have seen over the years especially with weddings they can never run on time, we are aware of this just keep us updated.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes no problem. Nothing worse when you have so much to do, in organising the day. We make it easy for you by supplying the DJ. One less thing to worry about.
How much time do you need to set up?
Up to 90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?
Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
