Do you offer a written contract?
Absolutely! Any professional entertainment
company should. At Elegant Sounds, our contract
spells out all the details of your event, what
is included in the custom event package we have
created for you & the payment option you have
selected.
May we meet with you
in person before signing a contract?
Yes! In fact, we won't send
you a contract without meeting first. During
that meeting, we discuss the details of your
event to help create & design a package that
will make your event memorable. The best part
is, that meeting is 100% free with no-obligation
to you!
How long will you
hold my date?
After we meet for your free
consultation, Elegant Sounds will hold your date
- free of charge - for one (1) week. This will
give you time to look over the contract and make
a decision without fear of losing your date.
After the week, if you choose to book with
Elegant Sounds, a signed contract and booking
fee lock-in your date; otherwise, your date
becomes open for other bookings.
How much is the
booking fee to secure my date?
Typically, the booking fee is
1/3 of the total cost. The booking fee is due at
the time you sign the contract and is payable by
check, cash or credit card.
Will we meet again
before my event?
Absolutely! With every
package Elegant Sounds designs, we include 3
in-depth consultations. The first one is all
about planning and timelines, the second one is
all about music and the third is to make sure no
detail has been over-looked. We do this so that
by the time your event arrives, you know Elegant
Sounds will be working hard with your other
vendors to ensure everything runs smoothly.
How much do you
charge & what's included in the cost of my
event?
Well, that really depends on
what your event needs and what options you would
like. Every Elegant Sounds package includes:
Professional grade sound system, Wireless
microphone, Professional DJ/MC, Planning
sessions, Vendor coordination & Fully digital
music collection of over 50,000 songs. From that
point, we add features to make your event truly
memorable. Contact us so that we may design an
event package just for you!
Do you take requests
from the guests?
Yes we do. Your guests can
request songs at your event if you would like,
or they can come to our website and submit their
requests in advance. This allows us to screen
any requests with you ahead of time, as well as
make sure we have the requests in our collection
of music. Not only do we take requests from your
guests, but we also take them from you! During
our music meeting, we will discuss songs that
you absolutely want to hear at your event as
well as those you don't want played at all.
Will you be the DJ at
my event?
Yes. From your free
consultation to the final song of the night, you
will be working and building a relationship with
the DJ/MC that will perform at your function.
Do you act as the MC
and make all the announcements?
Absolutely. The only time we
don't is if you have someone you would like to
MC, for example, your company awards banquet.
What will you wear to
our event?
This really depends on the
function and what you would prefer. Elegant
Sounds has guidelines we follow depending on the
function, for example, at a wedding we wear a
full tuxedo whereas a corporate event may be a
full tuxedo or coat and tie. If you have a theme
to your function, like a luau or 50's sock hop,
we can accommodate that as well.
When do you arrive to
set up?
We will coordinate with your
venue to secure a set up time that is
appropriate for your event. What you select for
your event package will determine how much set
up time is needed. Elegant Sounds will always
arrive at least 1 1/2 hours prior to your event
to set up and ensure everything is working
properly before the first guest arrives.
What if something
happens and you can't make it to my event?
There is an entire section in
our contract about this. In the event that
something drastic happens and we can't perform
at your event, you will be given as much notice
as possible and allowed to select another DJ/MC
whether it be from Elegant Sounds or another
company we suggest for you.
Are you insured?
Yes, and we can show proof of
insurance to your venue if they require it.
