Question 1

What do you wear?

Accepted Answer

We keep our look clean, professional, and event-appropriate—typically a suit or all-black ensemble, depending on the vibe of your wedding. If there’s a specific dress code or aesthetic, we’re happy to match it! Our goal is to blend in seamlessly and let the music do the talking.

Question 2

Do you take music requests?

Accepted Answer

We prioritize your music vision first, but we’re happy to take requests from guests if you’re cool with it. Before the big day, we’ll chat about what kind of requests (if any) you’d like us to accept -- and we always use discretion to keep the vibe just right.

Question 3

Do you provide music for wedding ceremonies or cocktail receptions?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We’re happy to provide music for your ceremony and cocktail hour. DJ coverage for these moments is available, and if you’d like to integrate live musicians or customize your setup beyond the standard offering, we can absolutely make that happen -- additional fees may apply based on your vision.

Question 4

Can you provide specialty, religious, or ethnic musicians?

Accepted Answer

Yes -- we’re happy to help source specialty, religious, or ethnic musicians when available, or collaborate with musicians you provide. Whether it’s a string trio for a Jewish ceremony, a tabla player, or a mariachi band, we’re all about helping you honor your traditions and create a meaningful experience.

Question 5

Are you fully insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we’re fully insured and happy to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) to your venue or planner upon request. We know how important it is to meet venue requirements and keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

Question 6

What is your style?

Accepted Answer

Our style is elevated, music-forward. We blend vinyl-inspired DJ sets with optional live musicians to create a curated, high-energy experience that feels totally personal. Our MC style is relaxed and professional -- no cheesy hype-man energy here -- just smooth flow, great music, and an unforgettable atmosphere.

Question 7

How early do you come to set up?

Accepted Answer

We typically arrive about three hours before the event to ensure everything is set up, sound-checked, and ready to go with plenty of time to spare. We like to keep things smooth, stress-free, and fully dialed in before your first guest arrives.

Question 8

Do you provide other services, such as lighting or photo booths?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we do! We offer a range of enhancements including dance floor lighting, uplighting, and select production options. While we don’t offer photo booths in-house, we’re happy to recommend trusted partners or coordinate with your preferred vendors to keep everything seamless.

Question 9

What is your travel and break down fee?

Accepted Answer

We charge a travel fee of $0.50 per mile for the round trip to your event location. For example, a venue 100 miles from Boston (200 miles round trip) would incur a $100 travel fee. Breakdown and load-out are always included in our standard service.

Question 10

What are your sales taxes?

Accepted Answer

Good news -- we don’t charge sales tax on our services. The pricing we provide is straightforward, transparent, and free of surprise fees. What you see is what you get!
