Packages and add-ons

Start from a base. Build the rest yourself.

There’s no tier four of seven here. Every event starts from one base package for your kind of night, and everything after that is a choice you make — twenty-two options for a wedding, and you take only the ones that matter to you.

How it works

Three steps, in your own time

Check your date, create your ideal package, and book online when you’re ready.

1

Pick your base

One base package for your kind of event — wedding, private party, corporate, karaoke party, or a series of karaoke shows for a venue. That’s the night covered: me, the equipment, the music, and setting it all up and taking it away again.

2

Add only what you want

Uplighting, ceremony microphones, a monogram with your names in it, a second venue, subwoofers, an audio guestbook, karaoke after the formal part of the night. Nothing is bundled in to force your hand, and nothing you skip turns up on your quote.

3

Mix and match to compare

Finish a build and the total price comes straight back, free. Change something, build it again, and compare the two side by side. Most people put together several before they settle on one, and nothing is committed until you book.

The starting point

Five bases, one for each kind of night

Each one covers the event itself before you add a single option.

Wedding and reception

The whole day if you want it, run by the person you plan it with.

  • Online planning suite with ultimate flexibility
  • Unlimited consultations
  • DJ, equipment and music
  • Wireless reception mics
  • Backlit DJ booth and towers
  • Basic dance lighting
  • MC services to engage your guests and keep the night moving
  • Travel
  • Setup and teardown

Private party

Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, reunions, holiday parties.

  • DJ, equipment and music
  • Private online planning account, including the playlist builder — my music database, enhanced with Spotify, where you create your own playlists
  • Optional Guest Request System, so guests can suggest songs before the night
  • Travel
  • Setup and teardown

Lean on equipment, not on planning. Lighting, karaoke, subwoofers and the rest come from the catalog below, so a party never carries a wedding’s worth of equipment it didn’t ask for — but you still plan it in the same account, with the same tools.

Corporate event

Awards nights, conferences, holiday parties and team events, where the microphone work matters as much as the music.

  • DJ service with MC option
  • Online event planning tools
  • Access to a wireless microphone
  • Backlit DJ booth and vertical trusses
  • Dual derby dance floor lighting
  • Travel
  • Setup and teardown

Karaoke party

A hosted karaoke show as the event itself, with guests requesting from their own phones.

  • DJ and karaoke host
  • Karaoke tracks
  • Speakers and equipment
  • Microphones and monitor
  • Travel
  • Setup and teardown

Karaoke show series

For bars, restaurants and venues building a regular weeknight crowd.

  • Four hosted shows of three hours each
  • Twelve hours in total
  • Weekday nights
  • Booked as a block rather than one show at a time

Which add-ons are available depends on the event type. The wedding catalog is the largest, at twenty-two.

The catalog

Add exactly what you want

Nothing here is bundled into anything else. Take one, take ten, take none.

Coverage and staging

  • 1 StationIncluded with every package. Booth, sound and lighting in one location.
  • 2 StationsAudio set up in a second area at the same venue.
  • 3 StationsCeremony, cocktail hour and reception in three different areas.
  • 4 StationsFour consecutive audio stations at one address.
  • Second venueA DJ station at a second address, for a ceremony and reception that aren’t in the same place.
  • Assistant DJFrees me from the equipment to work the room. Worth it above about 200 guests.

Ceremony audio

  • Off-grid ceremony audioFully battery-powered sound for a ceremony where there is no power to reach — a hilltop, an orchard, a barn field, the far end of a vineyard. No generator running behind the vows, and no cables taped across the lawn.
  • Ceremony mic, standardOne handheld wireless, usually held by the officiant.
  • Ceremony mic upgrade, officiant onlyA bodypack with a discreet lavalier. Hands free, and nothing between the two of you in the photographs.
  • Ceremony mic upgrade, full setThree bodypacks and three lavaliers, for the couple and the officiant — so your vows are audible to the back row, not just the front.

Lighting and atmosphere

  • Uplighting, 8 fixturesEstimate one per 12 feet of wall, or one per 10 guests.
  • Uplighting, 16 fixturesTake both packages for 24 in total.
  • Upgraded dance floor lightingA larger, more capable rig than the basic dance lighting in the base package.
  • Fog or faze machineMakes the light beams visible in the air. It’s what takes lighting from flat to three-dimensional.

Personalization

  • Your names in lightA custom monogram projected onto a wall, the floor or the ceiling.
  • Name in lights, deluxe animationThe same monogram, animated.

Audio-visual

  • ProjectorEpson PowerLite 1940W WXGA 3LCD with a stand. You supply the files.
  • Projection screenScreen and stand, up to 120 inches on the diagonal. Indoor only.

Extras

  • Audio guestbookAn elegant phone your guests leave voicemail messages on through the night. You keep the digital files.
  • Reception karaokeKaraoke tracks, monitors and wireless mics, once the formal part of the night is done.
  • Karaoke for a party or eventThe same thing, added to a private party or a corporate event.
  • SOS emergency bookingFor a booking made 48 hours or less before the event. It happens more often than you would think.

Sound

  • Subwoofer pairDual subs for low end you feel rather than hear. For a room that wants the dance floor to sound like a club.
Starting points

Three places to start

Twenty-two options is a lot to face from a standing start. These three go together well. They aren’t tiers, nothing is fixed, and you can change any line of them.

Ceremony and reception, one venue

  • 2 stations
  • Ceremony mic upgrade, officiant only
  • Uplighting, 8 fixtures
  • Your names in light

The ceremony gets its own sound instead of borrowing the reception’s, the vows carry to the back row, and the room is already lit before anyone dances.

The dance floor

  • Upgraded dance floor lighting
  • Fog or faze machine
  • Subwoofer pair
  • Uplighting, 8 fixtures

For the night that’s really about dancing. The haze isn’t decoration: with it you see the whole beam in the air, and without it you just see the dots.

The full production

  • 3 stations
  • Ceremony mic upgrade, full set
  • Uplighting, 8 and 16 — 24 fixtures
  • Name in lights, deluxe animation
  • Assistant DJ
  • Audio guestbook

A bigger guest list spread across several spaces. Above about 200 guests an assistant does more for your night than any light will — it puts me out in the room with your guests instead of stuck behind the equipment.

After you book

What planning with me actually looks like

This is the part you can’t see from the outside, and it’s most of what you’re paying for. It opens the moment your date is booked.

Your own client area

Planning forms, guest details and the event timeline in one place, open whenever you happen to have ten minutes, not just when I’m free. Everything you enter is what I run the night from, so nothing gets lost between a phone call and the day.

The playlist builder

You are not handed a playlist — you build your own, out of my online music database with Spotify search alongside it. Make as many as you need: ceremony, dinner, the dance floor. Sort what you find into must-plays, try-to-plays and do-not-plays, and change any of it right up to the week of your event. Want to hand the whole thing to me instead? That’s a decision too — but you’ll never be told there’s no room for yours.

The Guest Request System

Send your guests a link, or put a QR code on the invitations, and each one gets their own request page — up to fifteen songs each, or whatever limit you set. No app and no sign-up — they tap the link and they’re in. Their suggestions come back to you as one list: song, artist, and how many different guests asked for it, most-requested first. It’s anonymous, so nobody holds back — and if something turns up you’d rather not hear, one click bans it from the night. Months out, you can see which songs several of them are waiting for, which gives you real insight into what will get your guests dancing!

Unlimited consultations

As many as you need. I don’t meter them, and there’s no point in the process where you stop being able to ask me something. Twenty-three years in means most of your questions have an answer already; the rest we work out together.

Planned on your schedule, not mine

It runs through the planning suite, email and the phone. That’s deliberate, and it’s the reason the person you plan with is the same person standing behind the decks on the day — not whoever the company assigns you once the contract is signed.

One piece of it you can use right now, before you’ve booked anything: search the music library

Sample of the client's view of collected guest song requests. Each row shows the song, the artist and a heart icon with the number of guests who asked for it, ordered most-requested first. The top entry, Chicken Dance by Sorta Crackers Band, is struck through in red because the client banned it. No guest names appear anywhere.
What you see when your guests have finished: song, artist, and how many of them asked for it — most-requested at the top. No names. The struck-through row at the top is one the client banned. Sample event, set up to show how the list works.
Sample of the event timeline inside the client area. Activities run down the page in time order from five in the afternoon to eleven at night, each with a time, an activity name and an optional note: DJ arrives to set up, music begins, guests arrive, guest of honor arrives, dinner served, speech, dancing begins, last dance, event ends.
The timeline you build together, in time order. Every line can carry a note — “surprise entrance — hold the music” is the kind of detail that decides whether a moment lands. Sample event.
Sample of the playlist builder inside the client area. A search box sits above shortcut buttons for Top 200, Genres, Decades, Wedding and Hit List. Below, the request list is grouped under three headings: Must Play, Try to Play and Do Not Play. There is an Import from Spotify button at the foot.
Search the library or start from a chart, then sort what you find into Must Play, Try to Play and Do Not Play. The last one matters as much as the first. You can import straight from Spotify too. Sample event.
Sample of the Event Highlights section of the party planning form. Yes and No toggles for cocktail music, dinner music, speech, toast, blessing, dinner served, first dance, last dance and other special dances, each with a matching detail field alongside.
One section of the planning form. Yes or no, then the detail — so nothing about your night is left to my assumption. Sample event.
