HOW LONG DO YOU RECOMMEND BOOKING IN ADVANCE FOR MY EVENT?

I am often fully booked out on weekends anywhere from 1-2 years in advance. I would recommend getting in touch with me 1-1.5 years before your event to avoid any disappointment and to ensure your event is a rocking one!

​

WHAT TYPE OF MUSIC DO YOU PLAY?

I specialise in R&B and House, however i can play everything ranging from 80s, 90s and cultural music. Any cultural music requests must be communicated before a booking has been made.

​

I WANT TO BOOK YOU, BUT I WANT YOU TO PLAY ROCK, HEAVY METAL AND OTHER GENRES. CAN YOU DO THIS?

No. This is not my style. Every DJ is different and as mentioned above, I specialise in R&B, House along with 80s and 90s. If this isn't your style, then I'm not the person for you.

​​

CAN I BOOK YOU ALONGSIDE A BAND & OTHER PERFORMERS?

It is my preference to take on bookings which involve myself as the sole DJ/MC and entertainment on the night as this is a more enjoyable experience for myself and the client.

​​

Any external bands or performers for your event must be communicated, discussed and approved prior to your booking being confirmed with me. Approval for these events is highly limited and undertaken on a case-by-case basis, unless they are already listed on my Trusted Suppliers list here. For Macedonian bands, I strictly only work with a list of bands that I have exclusively partnered with. These are listed by clicking here. 

Based on previous experiences, industry reputation, reliability, and professionalism, I pride myself on only working together with performers that go above & beyond for their clients and display a high level of professionalism, performance & service. This is a non-negotiable.

​

I HAVE A BAND/PERFORMER BOOKED IN THAT YOU DON'T PARTNER WITH, WILL I STILL BE ABLE TO HAVE YOU AT MY EVENT?

It is entirely your choice if and whether you choose to book an external band and/or performer.

 

However, as mentioned above I have partnered exclusively with a list of bands and performers and any external band/performer needs to be communicated and approved prior to your booking being confirmed with me. 

​

CAN I PROVIDE YOU WITH AN EXACT PLAYLIST OF SONGS TO PLAY DURING YOUR SET?

I do not take on any bookings which involve pre-made playlists being played during a dance bracket set. As each event is unique and different, it is not possible and impractical to pre-determine exactly what will be played on the night and this goes against what our job consists of - mixing music, reading the crowd, playing what I specialise in and what will work to make the dancefloor bounce! 

​

In saying this, you are welcome to provide a handful of 'must plays' that you would like played on the night. This list will be used as a reference to gauge the kind of style you would like on the night. Keep in mind, some of these songs and in rare instances, all of these may not work based on my experience over the years and this will be communicated to prior to any booking.

​

CAN YOU DJ & MC, OR IS IT ONLY ONE OR THE OTHER?

I am able do both (DJ & MC). You do also have the option of choosing me to be the DJ only if this is what you prefer.

​

WE ALREADY HAVE AN MC BOOKED, WILL THE PRICE BE THE SAME IF WE CHOOSE TO HAVE YOU AS A DJ ONLY?

The price will remain the same. My MC service is already included in the service I provide.

​

I HAVE ALREADY BOOKED AN MC, IS THIS GOING TO BE OK?

This won't be an issue as long as it is a professional MC that has had regular experience in the Wedding industry. I also strictly do not take on any bookings which involve a friend/family member being the MC. 

Please note that in the event an external MC is hired, the entire operation of the event will be in their control only and they will have full responsibility over the timings and how the night is run. I will be limited to playing music only during entrances, formalities, dance brackets & background music. 

External MC’s strictly must bring their own wireless microphone, the same way that I am expected to bring my own equipment. I will be under no obligation to provide a wireless microphone to any external MC’s or be liable for any of their equipment.

​

DO YOU PROVIDE YOUR OWN EQUIPMENT, OR DO WE HAVE TO HIRE EQUIPMENT?

Yes, I provide my own equipment which is already included in the price so you won't have to worry about a thing. Please note that for larger venues or when there are additional performers or bands, an external sound company hire may be necessary. This will be communicated and made clear prior to your booking and a labour & hire fee may apply.

​

THE VENUE I HAVE BOOKED IS UPSTAIRS, HOW LONG DO YOU NEED TO SET UP?

If there is a venue that has stairs, lift access, or requires an extensive set up time then additional fees may apply. This is because I will need to hire an assistant during set up/pack down and they may also be required to stay the night. Set up and pack down time may range anywhere from 1.5-3 hours one way and this will be communicated in my email to you.

​

I HAVE MY WEDDING CEREMONY IN THE SAME ROOM THAT THE RECEPTION IS GOING TO BE HELD IN. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SET UP?

It normally takes a minimum of 1.5 hours for set up and sound check at a venue. 

If the wedding ceremony is held in the same room as the reception, or in the surrounding areas that will interfere with set up and sound check then this will incur an additional fee per hour that it takes to set up, be ready and perform a sound check before the ceremony start time has commenced. This must be communicated before any booking or event has taken place.

​

THERE ARE NOISE/SOUND RESTRICTIONS AT THE VENUE I HAVE BOOKED - IS THIS GOING TO BE A PROBLEM?

Some venues have noise restrictions and this severely impacts the quality of the night, the professional standards and performance that I aim to achieve at every event. This must be communicated to me before any booking has been confirmed and in these instances, I won't take a booking if there are such restrictions. There are a list of venues which I do not play at due to this. 

​

I HAVE BOOKED YOU FOR MY EVENT, HOWEVER FOR PERSONAL REASONS I NEED TO CHANGE DATES. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?

All bookings are subject to strict terms & conditions which you must agree to before making any booking. In the event of a date change, the deposit is non-refundable and any new dates will be treated as a new booking. ​

​

I'M INTERESTING IN BOOKING YOU, CAN WE MEET FACE TO FACE FIRST?

Due to an extensive work schedule, regularly booked out weekends and existing client meetings, I do not meet face to face for new enquiries. I would be more than happy to discuss anything over a phone call or via email in writing and my work is also displayed on my website, Instagram and SoundCloud.

​

WHAT IS THE PROCESS TO LOCK YOU IN FOR OUR EVENT DATE?

When you are ready to proceed with your booking, you will be send a Booking Confirmation Email, your Event Contract and an Invoice. It is important you read over all of the details to ensure they are correct.

 

You will be provided with the amount that is required to book the event in, however there is normally a minimum of $500 + GST non-refundable booking fee which acts as your deposit to secure my services on the date & time requested. This can be completed via online transfer with the balance due the week before the event date only. Amounts may differ depending on the event type & additional requirements. 

​

Once this has been processed, you will be required to send a Screenshot via reply email to show that you have made payment and you are also required to send a signed copy of your contract which outlines that you have agreed to the Terms & Conditions of your booking.

​

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER WE BOOK YOU? HOW DO WE FINALISE THE MUSIC AND EVENT TIMINGS?

Once you have paid your booking fee and returned a signed copy of your contract, you will be sent a breakdown of instructions leading up to the event date. This normally includes a Draft Running Sheet template which you can coordinate with your venue to fill out with timings, formalities, entrance songs, allocation of dance brackets etc. and this is required to be sent back to me no later than 2 weeks before the event date. I will then arrange a phone meeting 2-3 weeks out prior to your event date to go over these details, finalise the running sheet and I will then take care of everything on the night so you enjoy yourself!
