Birthday Party Ideas for Sweet 16   By Natalie Aranda
 

Sweet 16 parties are a must for today’s teenage girl. This party marks the beginning of independence for the teen, as she further ventures into the adult world. The trend today is towards a large, sometimes extravagant birthday party. (READ MORE)

Bose Tower Speakers

There has been a lot of debate about the new Bose L1 Tower speaker system.  Bose has always had a great reputation in the home audio industry.    Their jump into the DJ industry had many people scrambling.  Bose claim was that these tower systems helped reduce hot spots in room with virtually every area of a room being at about the same volume.  (SPL - sound pressure level)  At face value, this seems like a wonderful thing.  In reality, it is not.  (READ MORE)


Karaoke Fun

Interested in karaoke?  Think you're the next hot thing and want to be on American Idol?  Try you skills using this FREE website - www.karaokeparty.com   Want to host your own karaoke party?  Contact us.


Portable Espresso Bar

I'm really not into coffee.  I'd prefer a Mountain Dew or Monster personally, but my wife just can't do without her specialty coffee or espresso in the morning.  If you're like her, why not bring that love of coffee with our portable espresso bar for your next corporate event or wedding?

 

Email us for availability, information and pricing.  We'll need to know your event date, location, number of guests and how many hours you'll need the espresso bar open in order to give you exact pricing.

Paypal

Paying for your DJ just became easier.  Don't know what to do with your beenie baby collection or that old exercise bike?  Sell it on Ebay and collect your money through paypal.  Who would have known that an old box of GI Joes would be worth $250? 

The DJ Network members all accept Paypal as a payment option.  You can pay your deposit out of your paypal account or make small payments each month to pay down your balance.  Or you can sell off all your childhood memories and pay for your wedding without coming up with a dime out of pocket.  Either way you look at it - paypal is a great way to securely send money to anyone. 

If you are interested in using paypal to secure or make payments for our services, please email us and we can direct you on how you can use paypal.

The $600 DJ - Ten Reasons To Hire A Pro

So, you've been out shopping for a DJ and with the assumption that every DJ is pretty much alike, you find someone that is 1/2 the price of other area DJs.  What a bargain.

Here is what you might expect from them:

  1. They will probably not return your calls when you're frantically trying to reach them 2 weeks before your wedding

  2. Your first dance?  That will be the one song they were meaning to get, but they didn't get around to it.  Would you like to dance to something else?

  3. They have a website - but it's been under construction for months and when it comes online, there really isn't much more than a photo and a couple sentences worth of content.

  4. They will hide their cheap poor quality gear behind a large self-promoting sign at your wedding.

  5. Their computer will lockup during your dance with your father.  No backup - so please wait 5 minutes while he reboots.

  6. Wireless microphone?  Yeah, it works, but you have to be standing right next to the DJ. All you hear is crackling when you try and use it at the head table for your toast.

  7. The DJ that had 10 years experience won't be the one who shows up to your wedding - it will be his 16 year old son.

  8. Please be sure to stand right in front of the DJ speakers if you want to hear what is being said over the microphone.  He has his 15 year old speakers placed on the ground and not on speaker stands.

  9. Tux?  Isn't a shirt and tie close enough?

  10. Oh, you said you DIDN'T want to hear the Electric Slide?  He thought your guests would like it as well as all the other songs that you told him NOT to play.
