Will my DJ act as the master of ceremonies?

In addition to playing music, your Elegant Entertainment DJ will act as master of ceremonies. We are comfortable speaking in public
and will keep your guests involved throughout your event. We will gladly handle any announcements and pride ourselves in our
ability to keep your event organized and running smoothly.

What music will my DJ bring to my event?

At Elegant Entertainment we currently have over 10,000 song titles in our CD music library and access to over 30,000 songs in our
computer library. We add over 100 new song titles each and every month. Our music library spans over 8 decades so regardless of
the type of music you would like to hear, we would be able to satisfy your needs. All of these songs are categorized on our computer
database and our CD collection. We make sure before we arrive that the very important music such as your First dance, Father
daughter dance and Mother son dance are pre recorded copied and tested to make sure there are no mistakes for those very
important events.    

Does my DJ take requests?

At Elegant Entertainment our DJ's gladly take requests. Keep in mind that this is your event, so why settle for a DJ that wants to play
only what they like.  

Will you purchase music requests that are not already available?

Absolutely, music is our business, and with over 30,000 song titles currently available the chances are that we already have your
request. But in the unlikely event we would not, we will be more than happy to locate it without any additional charge. The only thing
we require is that you list any such requests on the appropriate event planner and submit this at least 2 weeks prior to your
scheduled date.


How will my DJ be dressed?

Whether your event is formal or casual, your DJ will always be dressed appropriately. From tuxedos to khakis we will be happy to
accommodate you.


What types of parties do you specialize in?

Although we have provided disc jockey entertainment for hundreds of events such as weddings, parties, Dances, bat mitzvahs,
corporate events, Karaoke Parties and sweet 16's, our specialty is definitely wedding receptions.  

What type of equipment do your DJ's provide?

At Elegant Entertainment we use only state of the art professional DJ equipment. Highly skilled sound and lighting engineers
design all of our systems. This type of commitment to excellence is unsurpassed by anyone.

How much does your disc jockey service cost?

You might be surprised how little the difference in cost between a low budget, inexperienced DJ and a highly qualified professional.
Our rates are based on the type and length of your event. We will be more than happy to discuss your event with you. Feel free to
contact us at 708-497-2605 or Email at  
joem15@earthlink.net




What if the DJ gets sick?

We are happy to report that no DJ has ever missed an event due to any circumstance. However, it is always possible for something
completely unforeseen and extraordinary to occur. We belong to the National Association of Mobile Entertainers and would begin
with finding a suitable replacement from the association first. We also network with a team of other pro DJ's in the Chicago area that
would come to our aid if it were necessary.




What if a piece of equipment breaks?

We invest in the best equipment to avoid chances of equipment failure. In addition, all equipment is well maintained, road-cased,
and properly run. However, it is always possible something could happen. Spare parts, tools, and in most cases backup equipment
is on site to repair or fix a problem that might occur.




When does the DJ setup?

Our preference is to have at least an hour to an hour and a half for setup. This allows us to sound check the room, properly secure
all cables, and have time to work with any last minute details. Setup and tear down is free of charge.



This is my first time hiring a professional disc jockey. All DJ's are the same, right? They just
play music.

This is a common misconception. Especially with wedding DJ's, there is quite a bit of work going on behind the scenes. A
professional disc jockey will work closely with catering staff, photographer, and other event personnel to coordinate events. During
the dancing portion, your disc jockey will be choosing the right music based on audience response and experience. Additionally,
some DJ's are very outgoing and will dress up in costumes, be loud on microphone, use props, and play games. We believe your
reception should be elegant and enjoyable for all, not a circus-like atmosphere. Our DJ's will be energetic, but not overwhelming to
you and your guests. You are the center of attention, not the DJ.
