Hire an MC, not just a playlist

A good event DJ runs your timeline: introductions, toasts, cake, last dance. Ask how they keep a Palm Springs & the Coachella Valley crowd on the floor and how they coordinate with your planner and venue.

Plan for the space

Ballrooms, outdoor lawns and rooftops all need different setups. Tell us your Palm Springs & the Coachella Valley venue so we can confirm the DJ brings the right speakers, wireless mics and ceremony sound.

Ask about add-ons up front

Uplighting, a dance-floor light package, ceremony sound and a live musician over the set are the common extras. We negotiate them as one package so there are no surprises later.

Options we book

Music, announcements and timeline management.

Adds a sax player, violinist or percussionist over the DJ set.

English and Spanish announcements and repertoire.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Will you be our DJ, or someone else from your company?
  • Do you MC and manage the timeline?
  • Do you take requests, and how do you handle do-not-play lists?
  • Is ceremony sound and a wireless mic included?
  • What backup equipment do you bring?

We ask these for you, and negotiate hours, lighting and uplighting add-ons, ceremony sound and the contract terms on your behalf.
