Frequently Asked Questions
Questions You Should Ask Before Hiring a DJ

 

What staff will be at my event?

  • Choosing Terry Green, a Professional Wedding & Corporate DJ, means you will see me, not an hourly employee at your event. It is my name on the line, I can't afford poor performance since many of my clients are through referrals. If I am already booked on your date, I work with a network of other fine DJs.

 

How will the staff dress?

  • Standard attire at wedding receptions is your choice of Casual, Suit or Tuxedo. Other outfits are available, depending on the type of event.  The choice will be yours.  I will present myself professionally, not flashy.

 

Will you invite prospective clients to my event?

  • No...Inviting prospective clients to someone else's event can lead to inappropriate, if not embarrassing situations for you, them, and myself.  I believe in giving the performance at hand my undivided attention.

 

Will the DJ appearing be experienced with weddings?

  • I have been a DJ since 1988.  I have performed at weddings, reunions, birthday parties, dance clubs, company parties, and even college basketball games. I have found that - of all the events I have ever performed, none are more demanding, challenging, or rewarding than a wedding reception.

 

Will you display banners or pass out business cards at my party or reception?

  • I do not use any event as an opportunity to advertise my services.  My equipment and my table drapes are unobtrusive. Your event is my focus, not promoting my services.  Satisfied clients and guests do a much better job of marketing my services than any gaudy banner or sign could ever do. Business cards will be available only at the DJ table for any guests who request them.

 

What music and activities will be played at my event?

  • I will only play music YOU want to hear, and will not play the music you don't want to hear. Music selection is made by you ahead of time.  Special requests the day/evening of the event will be handled with respect to your wishes.  I will discuss with you what music you feel is appropriate and what activities (electric slide, chicken dance, dollar dance) you would like and those you do not. The music and activities will fit these guidelines. If necessary, I will adjust accordingly to the styles your crowd dictates, while still staying within your guidelines. 

 

Where do you get your music and it is up to date and legal?

  • Our music is 100% legal to play at your event. No worries about an event getting shut down with unauthorized music! I have subscribed to a professional music service for over 20 years.

Are there any extra or hidden costs?
