Frequently Asked Questions

The music at the reception can bring people out to the dance floor and can bring back fond memories. It can be crazy or low key. It depends on your wishes.

"Jeanie you were the best. You kept the party going by inserting just the right music. Your karaoke was great for my stepsons. You helped make the party a real success. Thank you many times over!" Tina, Nov 2023

Are you available on the time and date?

Please text 928-300-7092, my cell, or click on my contact info above. I will reply at the earliest possible moment. I hope we talk very soon!

Do you have any other obligations that day?

No, I will not do two receptions or parties in one day. I want to give one set of clients my undivided attention for the length of their ceremony and reception or party and be available for them should they wish to go beyond the original time.

What are your fees?

In Sedona and Las Vegas, Pricing is the same. I do not charge for travel. When you combine services, you save money. Please let me know what you envision and together we can create your memorable and glorious event customized to your specific needs. Do visit my contact page and let's start a conversation that will make you happy. Please click on the packages links above.

What equipment do you bring?

I have two sound systems and a back-up. I use a Bose tower for weddings of 200 or less, and Yamaha for my amp, mixer and speakers for 201 or more but volume is always the guests' and the venue's discretion. I use an Apple MacBook Pro laptop computer, Shure wireless mic's, and a Shure corded mic , depending on the situation.

Do you provide lighting?

Yes. In various combinations. Ambient lighting is included in your DJ package when night falls at no extra charge!

Will you charge extra for learning specific songs to sing at the ceremony or the reception?

Yes, but I have a huge repertoire of songs, so most people just have to pay me to be there, not to learn a specific song or two. You must supply the sheet music, original tune on CD, and possibly the Karaoke version if you want full orchestration in the backround. (You may not have to buy the original CD or karaoke version. I may already have it.) The sheet music must provide guitar chords since that is the instrument I solo with.

What is the usual itinerary for a reception?

I have prepared three possible itineraries for you to choose from or you can create your own! When you sign up with an account, there are wedding planning tools that let you decide the flow of your day. There are also indispensable worksheets that help us both be organized so that I know exactly what you want on your day! Please click on the itineraries link in the header of this page. :-)

What duties will you perform at the reception?

I make all announcements, play all appropriate music and will communicate with you when it's time to have first dances, cut the cake, toasts, bouquet & garter tosses, and will encourage people to the dance floor. I can teach various dances, too. I can also serve as a day-of coordinator and make sure all the vendors are on the same page for the smooth sailing of your special day! And, I can even take videos and photos! Your wish is my command!
