8 Questions You Must Ask a Wedding Professional Before Booking Them

Hiring the right team is critical to planning your dream wedding…and it can also be quite stressful.

How do you find the right match for you?  How do you know who to trust?  Where do you go for advice?

First of all, this is not an easy task and it’s totally normal for couples to feel overwhelmed, frustrated or confused. 

It’s not like you plan a wedding every day!  This is all probably brand new to you, so be patient with yourself.

A few tips to finding the right ones for you…

• Do Your Homework.  You’ll get much more out of a meeting or conversation with a wedding professional if you do a little background homework first. 

Spend some time on the internet or talking to friends who’ve recently been married.  Find out the average prices in your area and what services are available.  Get an idea of what you like and don’t like.  Wedding websites and chat rooms can be a great resource.  This way when you meet with a wedding professional you’ll be able to ask better questions and have an idea of what to look out for.

• Meet With Them.  An in person meeting is the best way to interview a potential wedding vendor.  It lets you get the full experience of their personality, style and professionalism.  If that’s not possible, have a phone conversation.    

• Ask Questions.  There are no stupid questions!  Make sure you get clear, specific answers to your questions. If you aren't sure what something means, ask them to clarify. Keep asking questions until you completely understand.

 

If a wedding vendor has a problem with you asking questions, they probably aren’t the one for you.  The best wedding professionals are patient, understanding and take the time to help you make the best choices for your wedding.

• Listen.  Don’t just hear the words they say, really listen.  Watch the vendor’s body language.  Are they confident and comfortable with their response?  Do they look and sound nervous?  Do you get a “funny feeling” about them?  Take all the sights, sounds and feelings into account along with their responses; if your gut tells you something isn’t right, it probably isn’t.
  
  
• Check References.  Portfolios are hand-picked to show off the best work, but they may not represent the “average” wedding performance.  Videos are edited for the optimum presentation.  But real referrals from satisfied clients are hard to fake.

Call up both client and professional references.  Ask questions and use those listening skills.  Even if they give a rave review, you’ll often be able to “read between the lines” if there were any issues or problems.

Ask around and search the internet for reviews.  Check the Better Business Bureau for any outstanding complaints against the business.  Weigh all of this information into your choices.       

Here are 8 Must Ask Questions to ask ALL your potential wedding professionals before booking:

1.     How many weddings do you do per year?  How much experience do you have?

This is an extremely important question.  Ideally, your wedding professional should have ample experience specifically with weddings.  Not only will they be more skilled in their craft, this also makes them a valuable source of information and ensures that your wedding day goes smoothly.

2.     How much do you cost?

Price is often relative, especially when you factor in experience, reputation and expert skill.  Generally, the most talented professionals have a higher price tag because they are worth it. 

3.     How much is the deposit?

4.     What specifically is included in that cost?

Because packages often vary, it’s likely that you won’t be able to compare one vendor exactly to the next without doing a little figuring.  The lowest cost isn’t necessarily the best deal; some higher quotes include services that you have to pay extra for in other packages.  Make sure you take this into account. 

5.     What happens if I cancel?  What happens if you cancel?

Find out if your deposit is refundable under any conditions.  Does the wedding professional have a back up plan if something happens to them?
 

6.     Do you use a contract?

If the answer is No, RUN!  A contract is designed to protect both you and the wedding professional.  Don’t settle for a verbal agreement that won’t hold up in court.

7.     Are there any additional fees?

Taxes, service charges and travel fees can add up quickly.  Make sure you understand exactly what is included and if there are any other fees you’ll have to pay.  This should be clearly defined in your contract.

8.     Do you carry liability insurance?

The answer you’re looking for here is Yes.  This protects you in case an unfortunate accident should occur on your wedding day.  It’s also a sign that this is a reputable business, since most “fly by night” operations don’t invest in insurance.

If chosen wisely, with the right wedding vendors you get expert help and advice…for free!

Debbie's Suprise 40th Birthday Party! 3/13/10 - Hudson Valley Party DJ's

The question we were wondering was whether or not the party would still be a surprise to Debbie or whether or not she had an inkling of what was going on! We must say that her family did an outstanding job as Debbie had no clue that she would be partying with all of her close friends and family at Uno's in Poughkeepsie on a rainy Saturday night. The weather didn't cause problems though as the Hudson Valley's Most Dynamic Party DJ's were out and about! It was a party from the get go, with Debbie's favorite artist Bon Jovi takin' over! By the end of the night, everyone was dancing and singing on the microphone! We can't remember a better rendition of Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" than what the party-goers did that night! Until next time...keep shuffling those songs on your iPod..

Eight Questions to ask when booking your disc jockey - Hudson Valley Wedding & Party DJ's

Hiring a disc jockey or the entertainment for your wedding or event is one of the most important aspects of your function. Let's face it, the music and entertainment provided will have a major impact on whether your  event is considered a success or not in your guests minds.

Here are eight questions to ask when booking your entertainment for your Hudson Valley wedding, Sweet 16, party or occasion.

1 - Do you provide a written contract?
Get your event confirmed in writing. This is important so that terms are clearly defined and you know what is expected of you in addition to what you expect from the entertainment. If they don't have a contract or agreement, keep searching!

2 - Are you insured?
You should have the confidence that the DJ you hire will show up for your event. Insurance will give you protection, and also gives the DJ protection for their equipment.

3 - Do you have backup equipment and DJ's?
This is a huge question! Even professional equipment can fail, through no fault of their own. Don't let this end your Hudson Valley party early! Make sure that your entertainment company brings backup equipment and there is backup DJ in the case of an illness. Many companies will schedule two individuals to work an event, this is a great way to ensure backup DJs. Another way is to ask your entertainer if they are part of the Hudson Valley DJ Association. If they are a part, it allows them to call on many of the top entertainers in the area in case of an emergency.

4 - Do you use professional equipment?
There is a distinct difference between home audio shelf speakers and professional entertainment equipment The equipment a DJ uses should not be something that you know how to set up or use on a daily basis.

5 - Can I choose my own music selections?
Yes, yes, yes! You know your guests best! We are there to fill in the gaps and offer advice when you need it! Many DJs play what they want to hear, and that is the sign of not a good DJ. Be sure to discuss with your DJ your musical selections and how you envision the flow of your function. Let them know if you want them to take guest requests, not to take requests, requests from only certain individuals etc...

6 - How do you dress for the event?
The entertainment & DJ company needs to walk the walk, talk the talk, and look the part for your function, whether it be a prestigious Hudson Valley Wedding, Sweet 16, or backyard BBQ, make sure that they understand the dress code so that they are dressed appropriately and meet your requirements to fit in to the style and flair you have chosen for your function.

7 - Will the music be too loud?
Many prospective clients are always concerned with the level of the music; too loud, too soft, etc.. There is a wide variety of people that are most likely attending the event, and a professional DJ knows to keep the volume level at during those intimate times (i.e. dinner, cocktail hour etc..) and when to crank it up for the party!

8 - So what do you do, just play music?
No! This is the most important reason as to why to hire a professional entertainer! Let's be honest anyone can show up with two iPods and play music. The fact that your professional can play all the music, MC the event and coordinate with all the vendors is a very important part of your day, specifically with Weddings and Sweet 16s. Make sure you have an entertainer who is willing to do the work to ensure that your function is run as smoothly as possible!

2/20/10 Bridget's Hudson Valley Super Sweet 16 at Germania!

Bridget's party we knew it would be a blast... we had performed at her sister's party over 3 years ago! From the get go, the kids were raring to go! We blasted house beats from Angelo Venuto's "Sweet Caroline", Daft Punk's "One More Time", to the Global Deejays, "What a Feeling". These kids came to party at Bridget's Sweet 16 and had Enriquez Entertainment, the top entertainment company for Hudson Valley Sweet 16's with them! The party was non-stop from beginning til end! The place went absolutely wild for Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance"! What a party it was! We had a great time with all of the Arlington High School kids, and hope to see you all again real soon!

Valentine's Day Dinner Dance at The Grandview - 2/14/10

What an incredible night! The Hudson Valley's Most Dynamic Wedding DJ's and Party entertainment company was out for the 2nd straight year for The Grandview's Annual Valentine's Day Dinner Dance! In just the second year, we sold it out! - 486 people came to party with one of the best Hudson Valley's DJ and Entertainment companies! From the very beginning we knew this night was going to be one to remember. With the full ambient lighting set up in red, to the gobo wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day rotating on the dance floor, an amazing time was had by all. The crowd was intense and didn't leave the dance floor all night. From some salsa and merengue, to the Jackson 5, to Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, and Journey, until the Black Eyed Peas and LMFAO towards the end of the night... the beats didn't stop! We also made sure to get all those special songs so that the couples could slow dance with their loved one on The Grandview's elegant dance floor! Whether it was a slow song classic or a couple's wedding song... we were sure not to disappoint! The entire staff at the Grandview was incredible as always. Brent, Margaret, J.D. & Nicole were great (they even participated in some of the fun - i.e J.D.'s fist pumping and singing on the mic to Don't Stop Believing)! The Hudson Valley's Party DJ's were rockin' the dance floor all night long!

We want to thank all of our friends, family members, co-workers and more that came out and supported us for this event! We hope you had as much fun at this event as we did... and hope that you mark your calendar's down for the 2011 version!

Having a Sweet 16 on Valentine's Day night with no school scheduled on Monday was a perfect time for Janiece to celebrate her Hudson Valley Sweet 16. Mike was ready to rock Janiece's Hudson Valley Sweet 16 from start to finish! Janiece's Sweet 16 took place at the Beekman Recreation Center and from the time we started until the time we ended 5 hours later.. the kids did not stop dancing! It was a straight party with plenty of dancing, singing along, and all the kids exhibiting their best dance moves to the New Boyz and LMFAO! What a party! We had a blast with all of you guys and hope you had as much fun with us as we did! Until next time!

Hudson Valley's Most Dynamic Party & Wedding DJ's - Wappingers Jr. High Snowflake Dance

After a few weeks off we were back at it again.  It's been awhile since we had a school function and the kids are always looking for a good time! They come prepared to dance their shoes off (literally) and raring to go! From the first time we dropped the beat til the moment we were told to close up shop, the kids at Wappingers Jr. High had a blast with the Hudson Valley's Most Dynamic Party & wedding DJ's. Led by Andrew and Keith, the students' rocked out all the latest music, as well as some oldies. Whether it was Justin Bieber's "Baby" or the latest track from the New Boyz, the students swallowed it up! Even the teachers' were rocking! One of the many highlights of the night had to be the dance contest to Elvis Crespo's "Suavemente" and Michael Jackson's "Thriller". We had a blast with you guys, and we'll see you again in May!
