Q. We like you so much! Can you play longer than our contracted time?

A. Thanks, we like you too. If the party is really kicking and you hate to have to call an end to it all, we can continue playing at $50 per hour.

Q. Can Michigan DJ perform at events outside of Metro Detroit?

A. Why yes we can! We love road trips, however we charge $1 per mile in one direction from zip code 48092.

Q. Can Michigan DJ accommodate events other then weddings?

A. Sure! Just let us know when and where! We love Engagement Parties, Birthdays, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Retirements, Reunions, Corporate and Charity Events as well as Office Christmas Parties, and more! Please email us directly for special pricing.

Q. When do I pay you and what's the deal with the deposit?

A. We require $150 non-refundable deposit/booking fee to hold your date and rate. The deposit will be deducted from the total cost of your event. We will send you a copy of your contract that will need to be signed and returned to us to finalize the booking.

Q. What is your cancellation policy?

A. If you cancel, any payments including but not limited to the depost will be forfeited. If you cancel less than 30 days prior to event date, the full balance will be due.

Q. Do you take requests and will you play our favorite songs?

A. Of course! We'll try to accommodate as many requests as possible. We have no DJ egos to protect, so feel free to bring along your favorite MP3's. You can also use our online music request system to request music before your event.

Q. All joking aside, do you know what you're doing?

A. Rest assured. Michigan DJ is a professional DJ company. We carry 2 million in liability insurance and equipment insurance and use professional gear and always have backups. Don't take our word for it, check out our references!

Q. What can you expect from Michigan DJ?

A. We have found a niche catering to hip couples. We've gained a following by those seeking a non-cheesy, no sparkly vests, inflatable guitar-less reception. However, we have been known to amp things up for our rowdier couples. The details are up to you, we're here to make it happen without any pretension! We are normal, reliable and friendly people...which is how we have found success in the wedding industry.

Q. Do I have to feed you?

A. We love being fed! We can even tell you where the best food is in Michigan! However, it is completely at your discretion whether or not you decide to feed your DJ and other vendors. A meal is truly appreciated as your DJ often works for 8 hours at a time with very little time for breaks. Tip: A service meal is often available from your venue as a scaled-down, less expensive version designated for your DJ.

Q. How far in advance do I have to book you?

A. Since Michigan DJ Service offers great rates, we tend to book-up very quickly! We recommend that you contact us at least a year in advance to get first dibs on our availability for your event. The sooner, the better!

Q. What is the point of a 2nd DJ?

A. A second DJ is included in our Titanium Package to help coordinate microphone usage, audience participation and taking requests.

Q. Sounds fabulous! How can I book Michigan DJ Service?

A. Click on our "Check Availability Link" on our home page and send us the details on your event. James or Samantha will get back to you as soon as possible to give you a confirmed rate quote. We are always willing to meet with you to go over your music needs, show you our Packages and help you in deciding if Michigan DJ is the right fit for your event. To finalize the booking, we require a $150 deposit which can be made with a credit card along with a signed service agreement.

Q. My wedding ceremony is outside/upstairs/at another venue. Can you DJ this portion of the day too?

A. Yeppers! However, we do charge $150 for a second sound system and for setting-up twice, doing another sound check and moving our equipment around. If you contract with us for the ceremony, note that our DJ start time will begin immediately after the ceremony.
