A.  We strive to make your event truly special and unique. We take pride in customer satisfaction and want your event to be exactly what your dreamed it would be. Main Stage Entertainment is known both locally and nationally as a leader in the industry. You do not want to trust your special event to a "bedroom" DJ. As with all goods and services, you get what you pay for.

Q. How much of the music can we select to be played?

A. You can select all of the music for the DJ to play if you wish, however, your DJ is VERY experienced and knowledgeable in many different areas of music. The DJ has learned what people like to dance to, crowd climate, and what's appropriate versus inappropriate. The DJs expertise in this area can be very helpful. The ultimate choice is up to the client. Our online music database provides everything from Must Play requests to Do Not play requests.

Q. Can we have overtime if the event goes longer than anticipated?

A. Overtime is always available for an additional fee. When you are contracted, we make sure you choose an accurate package that suits your particular needs.  In the event the party lasts longer, overtime is available but ultimately determined by the DJ of your event.

Q. At the event, can our guests make song requests?

A. As long as the guest selection is within the music type the client specified, the DJ will play the song. Sometimes there are songs that clients DO NOT want played and guests have a way of asking for those songs. We will respect our client’s wishes and NOT play those songs. These arrangements can be made in the Client Area of our website, using the planning form and music database.
