Frequently Asked Questions

Here’s everything you might be wondering

What’s the first step to making my event unforgettable? Answer: The first step is to schedule a video call or in-person meeting—what we like to call an “Introduction Call.” It’s a chance for us to connect, get to know each other, and explore your wedding vision, priorities, and budget. From there, we’ll walk you through the package options that best align with your goals and share how we can help craft an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

Can we customize the music or make song requests for our event? Answer: Absolutely. We’ll work closely with you to curate a personalized playlist that reflects your unique style, energy, and guest vibe. We don’t just build playlists—we orchestrate moments, read the room in real time, and adapt the music to match the flow of your celebration. Guest requests are welcome and will be played when they align with the mood and momentum of the event. While not every request may make it into the mix, our priority is creating an unforgettable experience for everyone on the dance floor. Collaborating on your preferred songs is also part of our Online Event Guide, where you can share must-plays, do-not-plays, and special selections for key moments. It’s all part of making your event feel personal, intentional, and unforgettable.

What forms of payment do you accept? Answer: We accept Venmo, PayPal, cash, and bank-certified checks

What’s the booking process and payment requirement? Answer: Once we’ve had our Introduction Call and you’re ready to move forward, we’ll send you a DJ agreement via email. To officially reserve your event date, a 20% retainer fee is required upon signing. For example, if you choose our Love and Rhythm package at $1,800, the retainer would be $360. The remaining balance of $1,440 is due 14 days prior to your event. This process ensures your date is locked in and allows us to begin crafting an unforgettable celebration tailored to your vision.

Do you provide lighting and sound equipment? Answer: Yes. Every event we serve includes professional-grade sound and lighting equipment tailored to your venue and guest count. We handle all setup and teardown, ensuring seamless integration with your timeline and layout. From crystal-clear audio to dynamic lighting effects, we bring everything needed to elevate the atmosphere and keep the energy flowing.

Do you travel outside Iowa? Answer: Yes! We proudly serve Iowa, Eastern Nebraska (including Omaha), and Northern Missouri/Kansas City. A travel fee may apply depending on your location—just reach out and we’ll be happy to confirm any additional costs based on your event details.

How far in advance should I book? Answer: For weddings and large-scale events, we recommend booking 6–12 months in advance to ensure your date is secured and we have ample time to craft an unforgettable experience. For smaller events, availability may be more flexible closer to the date—but the sooner we connect, the better we can serve you. Dates fill quickly, especially during peak seasons, so don’t hesitate to reach out early.

This isn't just entertainment.

It's legacy.
