The Economy & The Wedding Industry

I was at a facility the other weekend performing for one of my wedding clients.  This particular facility had 3 weddings going on simultaneous (on a Sunday in June).  It's common courtesy to stop in and introduce yourself as "the DJ in the other room" to ensure we don't have the same wireless microphone frequencies.  I happened to recognize both of these other DJs in those other weddings. 

One of these DJs mentioned to me that business was extremely slow and that he hadn't done a wedding in nearly 5 months.  He went on to tell me how he was getting burned out with doing weddings and that he "doesn't even remember their names anymore" and just refers to them on the microphone as "the bride and groom".  Hmm, maybe it's that attitude that has dictated that their wedding business is failing.  We have been busier than ever with so many 2009 brides still out looking for DJs  (we're booking at least 1 event each week on average FOR THAT WEEK). 

Our calendar is nearly full for this season and 2010 is filling in quickly right now.  Call when you are ready to talk to a DJ that will remember who you are and that your wedding day is NOT JUST ANOTHER WEDDING in their eyes.


Wedding woes?

Shady vendors can cast a dark cloud on your wedding day. Hear from professionals on steps you can take to make sure your big day goes off without a hitch.


The Knot - Best of Weddings 2008/2009

One of our DJ Network members was again recognized this year by www.theknot.com and local brides as "Best of Weddings".  Congratulations to Rob.


Lighting Your Tented Wedding

A tented wedding in your backyard has been your dream for years.  So, you rent the tent and then they tell you it’s an additional $700 to put up lighting.  Oh, and you need between 2 and 4 - 15 amp circuits to power it all.  Wow.  It’s getting expensive.  There is an alternative.

With our LED wash lighting, we can transform your tented wedding for just a little more than what you’d pay for boring chandeliers.  We can wash the tent ceiling with 10 of our LED wash lights, pin spot your cake and head table with our LED pin spots.  All of this, we can run off of a single 15 amp circuit (or batteries if necessary).  So, compare a simple white lighted tent or our complete transformation LED wash lighting.  Our LED lighting can change colors on demand.  Your entrance can be pink, your first dance teal, your dinner a violet.  The lighting can even strobe and change based on the music when it comes time to dance.  Custom lighting packages start at only $1000.  Call or email us for further information or to check availability.

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)

One of our recent Sweet 16's at the Basketball Hall of Fame included a cameo appearance by Juelz Santana (There It Go (The Whistle Song), Run It w/Chris Brown, Hey Ma w/Cam Ron). 


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)


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.
