HOW IMPORTANT IS THE SUCCESS
OF YOUR WEDDING CELEBRATION?

Your wedding is a "once in a lifetime" event that takes a lot of time (6 months to a year) and money (On average, $20,000) to plan! The entertainer you choose should reflect your personality and style, and your DJ will have a direct effect on the success of your special day.

A party is by definition an "entertainment function" and I will take on the responsibility to make your dreams come true! Although the food, decorations, photography, cake, and party favors, etc. are all important, will they keep your guests involved and entertained?

Here's another perspective: 10% of the budget is a great value for 80% of the responsibility and success of your wedding memories.


What Will A Professional DJ Provide?
Personalized Pre-Planning (Value: $300-$500):

We will meet and stay in touch with you to organize your timeline and to customize your music requests. Having all of the details taken care of ahead of time relieves a lot of stress!

Professional DJ Equipment (Cost to rent a DJ system $300-$600+):
In short, it's a $12,000 compact sound system that doesn't look cheesy (All black, no company banners or advertising in sight), and it allows your guests to experience the dance beat and announcements without being blasted out. Just in case, back up equipment is on call.

Music Library and Programming (Value: A 11,000 song collection is not available for rent; to buy $$$$):
Your requests are welcome, offensive music is not! We can create an elegant atmosphere or will keep your guests on the dance floor by playing the right music at the right time to give your party personality and timing.

Master of Ceremonies (Value: $300-$1000+):
The #1 fear in North America is public speaking, so having a polished MC is essential to making your announcements in a timely and considerate manner so your guests won't miss any special events.

Entertainment (Value $300-$Millions):
We will create a "Family Friendly Environment" with our "Classy, yet Fun!" style, and the level of interaction that you choose. We promise not to embarrass you and your guests by being a "corny-game-show-host-wedding-singer" DJ horror!

Coordination (Value: $500-$1000+):
On your wedding day the DJ will communicate with the newlyweds, the caterer, and your other wedding professionals so that everything runs smoothly. This leaves you more time to visit with your guests and to dance!

Can't I just hire a lower to "average" priced DJ? The reality is that every DJ Company offers a different level of planning, expertise, experience, competency, and commitment. If a DJ is not charging a professional fee, he is most likely a beginner or part time hobbyist, and this means that his DJ interest is not nearly as important as his "day job." You could pay $500 - $600 for a DJ. But look at it like this….

We will not cut corners on the most important event of your life! Would you hire a "Cheap" Brain Surgeon? That is the bottom line when you hire a cheap DJ service. We feel it is un-necessary to lower our standards to compete with these "Discount" DJ Services.

1. The quality of your Entertainment is directly proportional to its price.
2. The success of your wedding is directly proportional to the quality of your entertainment.

Food For Thought: If you're spending $10,000 on your food and beverage (Yum!), then your sales tax (7%) plus Mandatory gratuity (15%) will total $2200. Suddenly, the entertainment portion of your budget looks like a great value!

In Closing:
Thank you for taking the time to read this! All of our Disc Jockey Entertainers have at least 15 years of wedding experience, and Ed Lee Music has been in business for over 20 years.

I want to understand your vision for your wedding day, and to help create a special and memorable event that you and your guests will cherish!

If you choose to go with my services, I promise to give you my all and to do my very best!
