WHAT TO ASK?
We know that most of you won't hire event DJs very often let alone know what to ask! SO with the help of our amazing clients, we assembled this list of most frequently asked questions to help you learn more about our services even if your not quite ready to book just yet, that's ok. These answers should help you put your mind at rest.
Before You Book!
When should I book my date?
Charelston happens to be one of the most popular wedding and event destinations in the US! Certain months booked up well in advance
How much do you charge?
In order for us to give you the best price we need a little information from you first! All of our DJ package's start at a fixed price. Prices will vary for each event depending on the needs of each client.. Please send me pricing today
Where are you based and do you charge a travel fee?
Can we see you perform at a live event?
ML Event Entertainment respects the privacy of all our clients, for example, weddings are an extremely personal day for the couple and their families. A reputable DJ would never allow a potential client to turn up to someone eles's event. In order to give 110% we need all of our focus on our clients and their guests. Instead you will have to rely on online reviews, word of mouth, and/or vendor recommendations, online videos & photos. We have a ton of 5 star reviews and are very happy to share them with you!
What type of music do you play?
The type of music we play depends on the type of event you book but most importantly, what type of music YOU love to hear is a huge part of what we do! Eveyone who books ML Event Entertainment has access to their very own online music planning sytem making your event yours.
What are your payment terms?
In order to save your event date a $300 deposit is required at the time of booking with the remaining balance due 30 days prior to your event date. Payments can be made through our online planning system using a debit or credit card, PayPal account, or Venmo. Click here to contact us for more information on pricing.

Do you have any videos or live samples we can see?
What should a couple pay attention to when choosing a DJ for their big day?
First and foremost, your DJ should be someone that you trust, will do a great job, and someone that will be great communicating when leading up to the event. If you have already made contact with your preferd DJ, that means everything leading up to this point looked good to you. You most likely have already checked out their web site, social media, online videos, and reviews. Now it’s time for you to fine tune the questions you ask, and listen carefully to the things they say. One important thing is to see if the DJ takes the time to get to know YOU. As DJs, part of our job is to get to know the client we are working with so that we can make their wedding special and unique to them.
Your prices are great but why is another DJ charging me significantly less and can you meet or beat their quote?
If it’s not a friend or relative helping you out, be sure to do your research on his/her experience and make sure they are a full time profesional events DJ before booking! Also, ask for detailed breakdown of what is actually being provided with that lower price!
Will you do a booking last minute?
Absolutely! Providing my event date is free in my calender then YES you can book us. Our response time is quick....we can book, sign and iron out all the event details the same day. For last minuet bookings click here
After you book!
Do we sign a contract once we haved booked?
It is extremely important to have your booking confirmed in writing that protects both parties. Upon booking, ML Event Entertainment will provide you with a written contract outlining the terms of your service. This can be done by signing our online E-signture form, making it super easy to sign and keep a copy for your records. I would never suggest booking any DJ service with out a written contract.
Do you mix the music?
Will our DJ also make annoucements?
Absolutely!
What type of equiptment will come with our package?
We pride ourselves on using only the best equiptment! This allows us to stay ahead of the competition and taylor our sound to each event. We have sevel differant set up's and add on options to choose from however, all of our package's come with unbeatable sound equptment, 100% wierless microphone's, & an elligant DJ booth to ensure a phenonenal guest experience!
Do we pick the music or does our DJ?
Have you DJ'd my venue before?
Can we upgrade our package and add extras after booking?
Am I meant to tip the DJ
Gratuity is not included in our final package price! This part is completly your choice! We're just greatful you booked us for your event. However, If you think your DJ did a great job and you would love to show your appreciation in the form of a tip, you are more than welcome to do so! Again, this is entirely up to you.
When is our music due?
Will we need to let you know what's happening next throughout the day?
The DJ you hire for your event should always be qualified to communicate with you, your guests, and work seamlessly with other vendors in a professional manner, throughout the entire day. This comes with years of experience and in our opinion, is absolutley key to pulling off a stress free event! With a timeline as a guide and frequent communication with planners, caterers and other vendors like photographers and videographers ensures you never have to worry about a thing.
What time will you arrive to start setting up?
Unless instructed otherwise, and depending on what package or add on options you decide we always aim for two hours prior allowing us plenty of time to touch base with all vendors, complete a venue walk through, set up all equiptement, change into professional attire, and make sure background music is playing before the first guests arrive.
Will you take on the song requests from me and my guests?
If you approve Absolutely! We’ll work with you prior to your event to determine the specific styles and individual requests that you’d like played making sure to stay clear of your "Do Not Play" list that is!
Do you require a vendor meal at our wedding?
You should always plan to feed any wedding professional you hire who will be there with you at the reception. This includes your photographer, videographer, DJ, and planner working anywhere between 5/10 hours. However, you might want to check with your caterer to see if you have to include them in your meal count.
