  Equipment and Setup Requirements

  To provide optimal performance and protection of our high-end luxury gear, the following requirements must be met:

  Shade Covering/Sun Protection:

• If the event will be in direct sunlight, adequate shade covering or sun protection must be provided to prevent equipment from overheating.

  Power Outlets:

• The setup area must be near power outlets to make sure all equipment functions properly.

• For the ceremony, a power outlet or extension cord within 25 to 50 feet of the setup location is appreciated if available.

  Table and Seating:

• A 6-foot table and 2 chairs must be provided for the DJ setup.

  Access and Setup Time:

• Access to the venue is required at least 2 hours prior to the start time for setup and sound check.

• Please make sure all necessary arrangements are made with the venue for timely access.

  Internet Access:

• A reliable Wi-Fi connection with login and password must be provided to fulfill song requests from guests.

  Parking:

• Adequate parking space should be provided near the event venue for easy access to transport equipment.

Gratuities:

• Tipping is totally up to you! We typically see 10-20% tips if the DJ was amazing.

The Music:

• Take your time selecting your music, as this is important to us.

• We provide music suggestions in the app for each section of your event.

The App:

• You will receive the music planning app immediately following our “Initial Music Planning Meeting”.

• I will text you a link to download the app and start planning.

Music Deadline:

• The app locks 28 days prior to your wedding day.

• You can still add songs and make changes to the timeline up until 7-10 days before the wedding. Reach out to me and I will unlock it for 48 hours.

• This ensures that we have everything correct and prevents last-minute changes.

Example Scenario:

• If we're two days out from the wedding and you want to change the first dance song, you'll need to reach out as the app will be locked to ensure we have everything prepared.

Enjoy planning and get ready for an unforgettable celebration!

Best regards,

-Taylor
