Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?
One of the biggest attributes we bring is the ability to read your crowd! Communicating with the host, finding out their expectations and exceeding is what we pride ourselves in.
How do you customize the music experience for each couple?
A professional DJ will create a soundtrack for your wedding that is based on your style, taste, and vision for that day.
Throttle Up Entertainment works with you extensively incorporating your ideas, to create an amazing music experience.
What sound equipment do you utilize?
High quality, name brand equipment is a must. In addition to sounding great, you want to ensure
that it looks great as well. Your elegant day deserves an elegant look from your DJ and their
equipment. Ask your DJ if they have professional quality DJ Furniture. Fold-out tables with table clothes, clunky speakers on stands, and unattractive tangles of wire are not the desired look for your big day!
Throttle Up Entertainment uses superior brand-name equipment and professional, sleek DJ furniture that blends seamlessly into any venue.
Is this your full time business?
You want to ensure that your DJ isn’t a one-dimensional part-timer, but a true performer who has had varied and extensive experience performing in front of different (and tough) audiences.
Throttle Up Entertainment is our sole focus. This ensures that you get the attention needed to make your big day exceptional!
How much time will you need for the setup and sound check on the Wedding Day?
A professional DJ will arrive with ample time to set up, sound check, meet with the coordinator and may even double check the setup. Avoid any DJ who says a sound check isn’t necessary!
Throttle Up Entertainment arrives at EVERY wedding a minimum of Two hours before start time. We test all of our equipment twice before the event to ensure proper performance!
What other services do you offer?
Lighting, cold sparks, dancing on the clouds and other elements can add to the atmosphere of your big day. Always check the pricing and contract for these additions.
Throttle Up Entertainment provides lighting elements in all packages at no additional charge. We also have many other elements to bring your vision to life!
Do you carry Liability Insurance?
This is something a lot of couples don’t really think about, but it’s important to keep in mind since many venues require all vendors to be insured.
Throttle Up Entertainment is insured! Beware of a DJ that does not carry insurance. A professional DJ company should always be insured.
Do you have a contract?
Once you’ve decided on a DJ, find out when you’ll receive a contract and when it’s due back with your signature. Make sure you’ll have ample time to read the contract carefully before signing. Having a legal agreement protects both parties, so avoid any DJ who says they don’t send a contract.
Throttle Up Entertainment provides an upfront contract and outlines straight forward pricing to eliminate any surprises!
Can we provide a Do Not Play list?
Beware of a DJ that does not! If there’s a certain song you can’t stand, you’ll also want to communicate that with your DJ ahead of time. Ask if you can put together a “do not play” list of songs you would prefer they avoid completely.
Throttle Up Entertainment always asks for a Do Not Play list! Additionally, we will ONLY play radio edit versions of songs to eliminate the possibility of embarrassing any of your guests. From toddlers to seniors, you can rest assured that the event will be appropriate and exceptional!
