No, you pay only for the time the music starts, until the music ends.

10. How early should I book?
As early as you can! Since we never like to let anyone down, our availability is sometimes limited. Once we're booked, we're booked. A year in advance is not to soon! (Saturday evenings full especially fast).
If I need to cancel my event, can I get my deposit back?
In order to get your deposit back, we need a minimal 60 days WRITTEN notice. Otherwise, your deposit is non-refundable.

11. Why should I use a DJ instead of a live band?
Quality: DJ's play the original music, the way everyone knows it. Bands may play the same songs, but they probably won't be as recognizable to you and your guests and if they don't practice regularly, they may not sound very good at all. DJ's don't have to practice their music, it's from the original artist!

Quantity: DJ's have thousands of songs available with a very wide variety of music types, bands usually know how to play less than 100 and the variety is usually limited. Remember, you want all your guests, young and old to have a good time.

Requests: DJ's can accommodate requests from you and your guests most of the time. Most bands don't take requests, except in advance, and cannot play them if they don't know the song.

Versatility: DJ's can play the music for your Ceremony, Cocktails, Dinner and Dancing, including those special songs you want to hear. They also MC events, like cake cutting, toast, first dance and the bouquet/garter toss. Bands have to learn those special songs.

Availability: Bands take breaks, usually 15 minutes every hour which means you may lose some guests before all the important events are done. Peter makes sure the music never stops, so your guests can keep dancing all night long and will mix in the events throughout your reception.

Non-Stop Music: DJ's play music non-stop, usually 'mixing' from one song to the next. Bands end each song, then pause while they decide which song to play next. This 'breaks up' the dancing after every song.

Volume: We periodically check the sound levels, from the audiences perspective, so the music is never too loud or too quiet. Bands usually end up playing too loud because they cannot perform 'in-the-audience' checks because they must stay onstage.
In short, a Disc Jockey provides you with the widest range of quality sound and non-stop music for a bargain price.
