Do you have a diverse music library, including the latest Bollywood hits, classic Indian songs, and popular Western music? Can you cater to different generations and musical tastes?
Yes, our Dj vendors pride themselves on their extensive and diverse music library. They stay up-to-date with the latest Bollywood hits, and have a deep collection of classic Indian songs across various genres and regions (Punjabi, Gujarati, Rajasthani, etc.), and also keep a wide selection of popular Western music. We understand that Indian weddings often have guests of all ages and backgrounds, so they are skilled and experienced at creating playlists that cater to everyone's tastes and keep the dance floor packed.
Can we provide you with a "must-play" list and a "do-not-play" list? How involved can we be in curating the music?
Yes, absolutely! We encourage you to provide the DJ with both a "must-play" and "do-not-play" list. We want to ensure the music reflects your tastes and preferences. We highly recommend that you collaborate with them to create the perfect playlist for each event.
Can the DJ accommodate special requests, like playing specific announcements or incorporating traditional rituals into the music?
Every wedding has speeches, special announcements as choreographed by the wedding planning team. We recommend that you coordinate well in advance with your requirements. Just let them know what you need, whether it's specific announcements, coordinating music with rituals, or any other special requests.
Do you provide emcee services, and are you comfortable making announcements?
Yes, absolutely! Providing professional emcee services is a core part of the DJ’.s We understand that South Asian weddings involve numerous rituals, ceremonies, and announcements, and they are highly experienced in managing the flow of events. Many of them are comfortable making announcements in English, and if needed, can work with you to incorporate key phrases or announcements in your native language (Hindi, Punjabi, Gujarati, etc.). They ensure all announcements are clear, concise, and delivered with the appropriate level of formality or enthusiasm, depending on the moment. We recommend having clear communication with them to ensure smooth transitions between events, keeping your guests informed and engaged throughout the celebration. Alternatively, you can bring your own emcee as well.
How far in advance should we book the DJ?
Booking early ensures that you secure your preferred date and allows the DJ ample time to collaborate on your music selections, event timelines, and any specific cultural or ceremonial requirements. We want to make sure your wedding celebration is everything you envision! so contacting us sooner rather than later is recommended.
What equipment do you provide (e.g., sound system, lighting, microphones)? Do you have backup equipment in case of technical difficulties?
The DJ’s are equipped with a professional-grade sound system, including high-quality speakers, microphones (wired and wireless), a DJ console, and basic dance floor lighting. They also have backup equipment on hand to ensure a smooth performance in case of any technical issues. However, if you have any special requests, we recommend you to discuss your needs in advance so they can make the necessary arrangements and also advise on any additional charges.
What are your setup requirements, and how much time do you need to set up before each event?
The setup requirements typically include access to a power outlet and a suitable space for the equipment. We usually need about 1-2 hours for setup before each event, depending on the complexity of the setup and the venue. They usually coordinate with your wedding planner and venue to ensure everything is set up efficiently and on time.
What are your rates and what is included in the price? Do you have different packages available?
The rates generally vary depending on the number of events, hours of service, equipment needed, and any additional services like lighting or special effects. They can create custom packages to fit your specific needs and budget and provide you with a detailed quote outlining everything included in the price.
What is your payment structure and cancellation policy?
The payment structure typically involves a deposit upon booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. The cancellation policy is outlined in the contract, and it usually varies between each vendor depending on how close to the event the cancellation occurs.
Do you have liability insurance?
We understand that events, especially large-scale celebrations like South Asian weddings, require careful planning and risk management. Having liability insurance is a standard professional practice, and many venues require vendors to provide proof of insurance. We recommend transparent communication and have this cleared during signing of contract
