We have developed this list of frequently asked questions to share more about our service and support you in making a more informed decision about the music entertainment at your event.

How far ahead should we book your service?
It depends upon the date. Some clients choose to contract a year or more in advance. While others are comfortable waiting until several
months prior. Saturday nights are our busiest, so waiting too long to hire a DJ (or any service) for a Saturday night might lead to
disappointment. We only require a $200 deposit to reserve your date.

What are your rates?
Our rates vary depending on upon the date, total time needed, location, your specific needs and other variables that can impact the final
rate.

How much is your deposit requirement?
We only require a $200 deposit to reserve your date. We accept: cash, check or Paypal (Visa/Master Card).

Do you charge for travel?
Travel charges are dependant upon the circumstances. Typically travel time & travel distance are the primary factors. This is why we
customize packages for each client and event. We normally do not charge travel for events within 35 miles of downtown Cincinnati.
Beyond that, it depends upon the distance involved.

Can we choose the music?
Absolutely. It is your party! While we are happy to make suggestions, you have total control over the music that is played at your event.
We have clients who choose each song to be played. We also have others who leave it entirely up to the DJ and everything in
between.

Do you have current music?
We update our music library every week, so we always have the most current music. Please let us know if you have specific songs or
artists you want played at your event.

What happens if you don’t have a song we want, can we bring our own CDs?
Chances are we will have the music you are looking for. Many of our clients bring their own CDs or MP3′s for any rare songs they don’t
think we will have. We are happy to play any music you wish to provide in addition to our normal library of choices. Should there be
a special song you need that neither of us has, we will attempt to locate and purchase that song for you. We cannot guarantee that
a particular song is in print or is available, but we rarely come across a client request that we cannot accommodate.

What time will your DJ arrive?
Typically our DJs arrive 1 – 2 hours before the event start time. Our sound systems take 20 to 30 minutes to set up but we like to arrive
extra early just in case. Please let us know if you have any special requests.

What do you need the facility to provide for you?
We would only require an electrical outlet and a 5 to 6 foot table with a cloth tablecloth (to hide wires, etc…). If you need us to bring a
table please let us know in advance.

What happens if my DJ doesn’t show up?
If this happens, you’ve hired someone else. But let’s think of worst case scenarios for a moment. On the way to your event, our DJ is
involved in a serious accident and cannot notify us. At some point, someone will notice that the DJ has not arrived (usually the
event venue coordinator) and will call us. If we cannot contact our DJ, our backup will be immediately dispatched to your event.
Depending upon the timing, the music may start a few minutes late, worst case. By comparison, with 99% of the other companies
out there, you would simply be out of luck. No music, unless you can find a phone book and get lucky.

Do you need to see the room you’ll be working in before the day of my event?
Almost never. We’ve worked in every possible situation in our 2,000+ events over the years and can make virtually any room or area
work. Again, please let us know if you have special needs.

Why should we choose goLiveDJ.com over any other service?
At goLiveDJ.com our goal is to provide the best service in the Tri-State. Attention to detail is our top priority and we make every effort to
make each event we do absolutely perfect. We have the best talent and provide them with the tools to be great DJs. Another
important point is that our DJs are there to support your event, not be the center of attention. The DJ can make or break the party.
A great DJ means a great party and an event you will never forget. The DJ might be the most critical decision when planning your
party. You will not find a higher quality DJ service in the Cincinnati area and our prices are fair. We look forward to the opportunity
to serve you.

Will you play music for the ceremony? What are the traditional ceremony songs?
We will, most of our clients ask us to play prelude music prior to the ceremony, along with a wedding processional for the bridal entrance
and a wedding recessional for the exit from the ceremony. Occasionally, we are asked to play special songs for the seating of
special family members or the entrance of the bridal party. Also, music can accompany any special moments that sometimes occur
during the wedding ceremony (candle lighting, for instance).

Can we observe an event?
We prefer not to send potential clients to another client’s event (and we will take the same approach in not sending potential clients
to your event). Besides the potential inconvenience to our client, there is no guarantee that event you visit will be anything like what
you are looking for at your event.

When do we need to complete our song selections and formalities page?
We recommend that you return your planner to us at least two weeks prior to your event, if not sooner. This gives us time to look for
specific songs requests.

Will your DJ help with announcements?
DJs come equipped with a microphone to support your event with announcements and to help coordinate activities at your request. All
activities and announcements are confirmed with you during our coordination meeting so there are no surprises or
disappointments at your event.

We’ve seen so many “cheesy” djs. Your DJ won’t be obnoxious, will they?
No, our DJs are professional, friendly, courteous and helpful. DJs are their to enhance the enjoyment of the event, not to try to be the
center of attention. A wedding day is about you, the bride and groom, not about our DJ.

What do your djs wear?
Unless directed otherwise, our DJs wear semi-formal attire (dress shirt & slacks). For casual outdoor events our DJs wear something like
a polo shirt and khakis. We can put your DJ in a tuxedo, if desired, but we do not recommend it, as the DJ ends up looking like
they are in the wedding party.

What kind of equipment do you use?
goLiveDJ.com uses professional-grade sound equipment. We have wireless microphones, dance lights, and premium sound systems.

Do you have a backup system?
goLiveDJ.com always has a backup DJ or DJs and sound systems on call in the event of an emergency.
