Frequently Asked Questions
 

Is setup time included in your price?

You never have to pay for setup or take down time. We arrive an hour prior to your scheduled start time and will be set up long before your first guest arrives. But it's on our own time! The same applies for take down time after your event.

What is your dress attire?

We dress appropriate for all events. If you have theme just let us know.

Do you wear tuxedos for wedding receptions?

This is a question we get all the time. This is your wedding day not the DJ's. Your wedding party should stand out from all the guest that includes the DJ.

Do you take breaks?

Soundwave never takes breaks and we try to avoid down time (dead air) always.

Can we choose the music to be played at our event?

We are very flexible when it comes to music selection! That's because in the past 11 years we've learned that keeping the dance floor packed is influenced by many factors, including the order and style in which the songs are played, the way songs are mixed together, and DJ interaction...not just which songs are played. The client can choose from our music library and add song that they want played throughout the night.

Do you carry backup equipment?

Your special event could very well be one of the most memorable days of your life. So we must offer you the highest level of dependability. We keep a complement of essential backup equipment on-site at all times for all events. If a component were to fail, it could easily be switched.

How interactive are your DJ's?

A very familiar question! Often times when a prospective client is looking for the perfect DJ they search for one who fits the level of interaction they're looking for, whether it be conservative or outgoing. We actually let you decide how much interaction you would like. We can be conservative, outgoing, or anywhere in between. By default, we're only as interactive as necessary to keep your guests having a good time on the dance floor.

How far will you travel?

We have traveled as far as Ohio even down to Tennessee. We have also traveled to cities ranging from Ashland to Paducah. There are very few counties in Kentucky that we have not been to so basically we go where clients want us to go, even out of state! Travel does take time especially out of state. Please ask about our travel rates.

Do you offer a contract or written agreement?

Absolutely. Our contract is straightforward and written in plain English so that you can understand the terms before signing. It is signed by both parties and offers you a high level of protection and dependability. With the contract you can be assured that there will be no hidden extra charges or surprises at your event. The signed contract and deposit officially reserves your date. A copy will be sent to you for your records. If you have any questions or concerns about the terms, just ask!

Is tipping/gratuity expected from the DJ?


By no means is tipping/gratuity mandatory or expected. We charge a professional rate for a professional service. This means you won't see a tip jar on our table. If at the end of the night you feel the DJ has surpassed your expectations and you want to tip him, we would accept it as the utmost compliment. But you're under no obligation to do so.

What is the deposit and when is the final payment due?


We require a $200 deposit and signed contract to reserve your date. The final payment of the remaining balance is due at least 14 days (2 weeks) prior to your event date unless previously arranged. We will gladly accept your personal check, certified check, cashier's check, or money order. You can also pay on the date of your event in cash prior to the scheduled start time just ask. However settling up before the date works best since it will give you the freedom to relax and enjoy your event!

How early should we book?

Simply put...the sooner the better! Some of the most popular dates can and do book as early as one year in advance. Our suggestion is to be prepared to sign a contract as early as 8-12 months before. Depending on availability some dates remain open until the month before. So if you're planning an event for next month, it's worth it to check our availability. If you're just starting your planning, try to make your final decision as soon as possible to ensure our availability.

Are your rates negotiable through price matching or other discounts?


Our rates are based on our cost of doing business as well as the value we place on the job. We take all events seriously and attend to each in a professional manner. We're confident you will find our prices to be exceptionally competitive. If our prices are a bit more than you planned to spend, just remember the old saying "you get what you pay for." The only exception is Soundwave gives you music and entertainment that can't be matched at our price. Could we charge more? YES!, but we don't. The catch is we are here for you not to put extra money in our pockets. When you book our services you're not only paying for incredible DJ entertainment, you're paying for peace of mind at an unbelievable price! Remember this when your paying for the cake at your reception!! I have never heard anyone after a reception say wow that cake was awesome, but they will remember your entertainment!!
