SPIN DOCTOR DJ & LIGHTING FAQ’s

Q: Will you still be in business on the day of our event and how long have you been in business?

A: Yes. I have been in business for over 10 years and have never missed, cancelled or been late for an event. We average 75-100 events per year.

Q: How good is your equipment?   

A: The best.  We purchase the finest top-of-the-line sound and lighting equipment, so my sound is crystal clear at any volume level. We upgrade our equipment yearly so we have the best on the market. The volume is controlled according to your tastes and the comfort level of your guests, not mine.  Every sound and light system is a "custom" set-up to accommodate the size of the room and the number of guests at the party
 

Q: Are you fully insured?

A:  Yes, We have a one million dollar insurance policy and are one of the only local DJ companies that is insured. Before you book with any DJ company, be sure to check and make sure they are fully insured. 

 

Q: Do you provide back-up equipment?

A: Yes.  Most of our equipment is brand new, so you have nothing to worry about.  We have every detail covered.  We are always upgrading,  so most of our equipment is state of the art. We always carry an extra amplifier, laptop, mixer and backup CD player plus other repair items such as cables, cords and fuses.

 
Q: What type of music format (CD's, records,) do you use?

A: Currently, we use MP3 format and CD's.
 

Q: Are you a member of any DJ Associations?

A: YES.  We are a member of N.A.M.E.

 (National Association of Mobile Entertainers). 

 

Q: How will the DJ's be dressed at our event?

A: Professionally. Formal attire includes a Tux or Suit and Tie, but if you are looking for something more casual then our signature SPIN DOCTOR bowling shirt with khaki pants is another option. If you are doing a theme wedding, we can dress up in your theme for the event.

 

QDo you offer 24 hour emergency DJ service?

AYes, we understand things happen.  You were busy and forgot to book a DJ.  (Yes,  it has happened.)

Three hours before an event, your DJ does not show or cancels.  Give us a call and we will do our best to accommodate you.

 

QHow far will you travel to an event and are you able to set-up anywhere?

AAnywhere.  We will travel almost anywhere, but we mainly service Connecticut, New York, and parts of Massachusetts. 

 

QHow large of a wedding can you handle?

A: We are able to handle most large events. We have done events with over 1,000 people with a full sound and light show.

 

QHow many songs are in your music library, and what type of music is in your library ?

AOur music library contains over 30,000 songs and it all computer-categorized.  So, when you request a song, we can look it up instantly and let you know if we have it.  Our music library contains all types of music.  We have everything from the 20's to Today's Hottest Hits.  If there is a special song for your event that is not in our library, we will make sure we have it.  You just have to give us advance notice.

 

QHow current is your new music and where do you get your music?

AWe purchase our music from the same companies that supply all of the major radio stations in the nation.  We receive most of our music before it is sold in stores.  The music is being released to radio stations at the same time we receive it.

 

QHow fast do you book up and how far in advance should I book?

 ABook as soon as possible.  Our available dates fill up fast and we have clients who book over a year in advance. The last thing you want is to find out that your date is already booked.  Then, you have to find another disc jockey or move the date.  We handle over 75-100 events each year, so our dates fill up fast.

 

Q Do you take breaks during the event and are we required to feed the DJ?

ANo, we do not take any breaks.  The number of hours you book is the number of hours of music you receive.

 No, you are not required to feed the DJ, but most people do.  It is entirely up to you.

 

QDo you have any type of planning forms?

AYes, we have many types of wedding planning forms on the client access section of our website.  Brides rave about these forms, as they will help you plan your  wedding without missing a single detail. They include a planning form, an event timeline and a music request form with access to a default database of over 50,000 songs. With the music request form, you pick the music you want for your wedding.  When you book an event, we will give you access to all of these forms and services.

 

 

QI am thinking having a fun and unique themed event, but I need additional advice and ideas. Can you provide me with them?

AYes, we do over 75-100 events each year and we see plenty of great ideas at each event.  Give us a call and we will give you some creative ideas to make your event successful.

 

Q: What do you require to book a wedding date?

ATo book a wedding date we require a signed contract and deposit. You have 7 days to return the contract and deposit. Once we receive the contract and deposit that date becomes locked and yours and no one can book that date. We only do 1 wedding per day.

 

 

 

Q: You have provided me with answers to almost all of my questions but I still have a few questions that you did not cover.  How can I contact you?

AIt's very easy.  Call us at 203-743-9944 or email us at davethespindoc@hotmail.com. We can also set-up a no-obligation meeting to discuss your wedding more and guide you along the way to creating a unique stylish and fun reception
