Dear Bride & Groom,

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. Without a doubt it’s the most important event of your life. There are many contributing elements to your wedding and reception, such as, your dress, location, flowers, music, caterer and photographer. Out of all these elements the most crucial of these to the success of your wedding reception is your DJ MC Musical Entertainment. Only five to ten percent of your wedding budget will be spent on entertainment. Yet, over twice the number of your guests will remember the fun they had or didn’t have because of your DJ/ Musical Entertainment choice more than they will remember anything else about you wedding. That’s why selecting a Fun Classy Experienced Professional DJ MC Entertainer is so important. The right DJ Entertainer will give you the Peace of Mind in knowing that everything will be taken care of and your Wedding and Reception will be perfect.

Whoever provides your DJ / Musical Entertainment needs to understand your wants and desires, what it takes to entertain your guests, the complete plan for the day, the purpose of each moment, the needs of the different vendors and have the special talent and ability to be your spokesman and coordinate all these things plus make it happen, exactly the way you want!

With me as your Ventua DJ MC Entertainer I will create Fun Classy Musical Memories for you and your guest so you can relax, have fun and enjoy the party without having to worry about your guests being being bored and going home early.
It’s Your Day and It’s All About You Having Fun and Enjoying it with your Friends, Family and Guests!

	Phil, You were fantastic! Exceptional! Thank you so much for making my wedding day so memorable! Also thanks for making my barbeque for my rehearsal so groovy! You are by far the best DJ, MC, Entertainer I’ve ever seen. Kathy O., Bride
	Phil, We heard nothing but great feedback and comments about you. You succeeded in getting everyone involved and the dance floor stayed busy the entire reception. So many of the wedding party have commented how impressed they were that you referred to them by name. I can’t think of anything you could have done to have made our day any better. Thanks again, you were excellent! Bob and Cindy P., Groom & Bride
	Phil, Thank you for your exceptional service. You were very helpful, professional and pleasant to us. We had fun and all the little plans we had made worked out very well. Thank you very much for the CD. I will be recommending you to friends in the future if they need a DJ. You’ll always be in our memories of our wedding. Thank You!! Terri C., Bride
	Dear Phil,  Thank you for doing such a wonderful job at our wedding reception.  There was not a dull moment... you kept everything alive.  I am so glad we had you as our DJ on our special day.  Again, thank you for doing such a wonderful job.  When it comes to DJ’s, you’re the one. Paul & Michelle P., Groom & Bride

* Questions For Your DJ*

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. Are You Insured?
Absolutely! Insurance is a part of any legitimate business. Liability and
casualty policies protect you, your guests, and the DJ company.

2. Are we guaranteed that you will be our DJ?
Absolutely! Unlike the companies with multiple DJ’s, I will Personally
talk with you, meet with you, consult and plan with you, advise you and
help you choose your wedding music. I will be your DJ/MC at your
wedding, with an assistant, if necessary or desired.

3. What do you charge to secure the date?
Approximately one third of the total price.

4. Are you a full time DJ or is this something you do on the side?
Definitely Full Time! I have been a full time DJ and Entertainer for over 20
years. I personally, have DJ/Entertained over 6,000 Weddings, Private and
Corporate Events.

5. Do you charge extra for travel?
In most cases I will travel anywhere in Ventura and LA county at no
extra charge. Reasonable rates for travel outside these areas vary,
depending upon destination.

6. Will you emcee the event?
Of Coarse! This is the responsibility of a professional DJ.

7. Do you provide a demo tape or video?
No, I customize your wedding and reception, with you, to uniquely fit your taste and personality. If I showed you a video that wasn’t your style
or taste in music, it wouldn’t be in my best interest. Think about it, if a
DJ did something wrong at a past wedding... it certainly won’t be on the
tape you receive from him. Instead I provide references.

8. Do you take requests?
Certainly! As long as the request is appropriate for the event. If a song
seems inappropriate for an event, a good DJ will explain the reason and ask for an alternative selection. (this is at the Bride & Grooms discretion)

9. What type of equipment do you use?
I use quality professional D.J. gear. Such as: Denon, Numark, Mackie,
Shure, Fender, Yamaha, American DJ, etc. etc. My equipment is serviced
and maintained to ensure a smooth performance and nice appearance.
Also, I always have a back-up system with me.

10. What type of music do you play?
I have a very extensive library, which continues to grow. Included in my
library are: Pop, Rock, Country, Oldies, Standards, Hip Hop, Soul, Swing
Funk, Latin, Salsa, Merengue, Banda, Cumbia, Motown, Disco, Big Band
Ballroom Dance, Reggae, Jazz, Classical, R & B and Top 40. (you name it!)

11. May we call your references?
Yes, at our consultation I will be happy to provide you with names and
phone numbers.

12. Do you belong to any professional associations or trade groups?
Yes, I am a member of the Camarillo Chamber of Commerce, the American
Disc Jockey Association, the National Association of Catering Executives and the Pacific Coast Disc Jockey Association.

13. Do you take breaks?
Not on your time. Unlike live musicians who need several rest breaks
my services are non-stop throughout your event.

* Pricing Information *

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT DJ PRICING

In post event surveys, clients stated that the contribution provided by the DJmade towards the overall success of their special event was 85%! Whether
it was a Wedding Reception, Corporate Event, or Private Party, itsSUCCESS or FAILURE depends upon the quality of services you receive from your Disc Jockey. They’re entertainment driven events.

Even though food, photos, and decor are important, these items are pale in comparison to the overall success of your event! The D.J. Entertainer is the difference between a Great Event or, just another social gathering.

HOW MUCH SHOULD YOU PAY FOR YOUR DISC JOCKEY?

You will find that professional disc jockeys will range from $350.00 to over $5,000.00 with an average of $1,200.00 for a 4 hour booking. The best price is not always the best deal, especially if you are planning a wedding. As a matter of fact, surveys conclude that nearly 100% of brides would have spent more money on their entertainment and made it their #1 priority in hindsight.
A full-service disc jockey company will normally invest 12 to 30 hours to your special event but it may appear that you are only paying for "4 hours". Consultations, music purchasing & editing, preparation, set-up and tear-down, education and other business related endeavors add up to the overall success of your special occasion.

WHY IS THERE SUCH A WIDE RANGE IN DJ PRICING?

1. They don’t offer all the services a true professional Disc Jockey will.This means, using home or inferior stereo equipment, a limited music library,
no back-up equipment, little or no advance planning... which leads to
major problems at your Wedding Reception, Corporate event, or Private Party.2. Most “D.J.’s” have absolutely no training. They figure if they can play a CD...then they can run any parties or special events. Which could be one ofthe most important days of your life, maybe YOUR WEDDING!

3. The D.J. industry is full of people looking to make an extra buck.
Their focus is on their real job during the week. If they mess up your event,
neglect to show up, or give a very average performance, they have nothing
to lose. They still will get their real paycheck every two weeks.NOTE: Discount for Friday and Sunday Bookings!!!
