EXPERIENCE /
CREDENTIALS
Q
- There are a lot of DJ services out there, what do
you do that separates you from everyone one else?
A
- I (Mike Miller) have a philosophy about weddings, I
want them to be unique, elegant, and fun, but most
importantly I want it to be personal (your wedding). I
have created several activities that separate us
(Mixmaster DJ Services) from many other DJ services.
Q
-
Our wedding day could be the
most important day of our lives. What experience do you
have in the wedding industry and, how many weddings has
Mixmaster DJ Services (Mike Miller) preformed in the
past?
A
- Mixmaster DJ Services (Mike Miller) performs on an
average of about 25 - 35
weddings per year. When you consider that most weddings
occur on Saturdays between the
months of April through
November, this is a large
amount of dates committed to wedding receptions.

wireless handheld microphones for ceremonies. We
also provide music to be played as well.
Q - Do you
have references?

very happy brides and grooms.

Mixmaster DJ Services.

PLANNING FOR
THAT SPECIAL DAY
Q
-
Will you help us plan for
our special day?
A
- Yes, approximately one month before the reception
(or whenever possible), I (Mike
Miller) wish to meet with the future bride and
groom to customize the planning of their reception.
Some of the things we would discuss would be the
choice of music, bridal party, and a complete and
detailed reception agenda. We have developed some
creative ideas you may want to consider to help make
your reception different from other receptions you may
have attended. Because every wedding is different, this
gives me (Mike Miller) a
chance to meet with you to tailor to all your personal
needs and concerns. This is included at no additional
cost.

DJ / EMCEE /
ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR
Q
- Are you an
interactive DJ?
A
- Yes - I am not one to just stand behind the CD
player / computers and wait for the event to end.
It is not uncommon to see me on the dance floor
motivating the dance crowd and keeping things
"happening". I am also very careful not to take the
spotlight off the bride and groom, but to enhance the
evening with lots of fun and excitement.
Q
- If needed, do you co-ordinate
all the activities, be the emcee, as well as be the DJ
at our reception?
A
- Yes - Quite often it is up to the DJ to keep
things moving during the reception. I will work with
the photographer, videographer and any other personnel
when co-coordinating any activities throughout the
night. I’ll want to make sure that nothing is missed by
anybody on your special day. I will also act as your
master of ceremony, announcing you and your bridal
party, toast, blessing,
cutting of the cake, bouquet and garter
tosses,
bridal dance, and any other special announcements
or events.
EQUIPMENT
Q
-
Do you
have / use professional equipment?
A
- Mixmaster DJ Services uses only top grade
professional sound and lighting
equipment.
Q
-
Do you have a cordless
microphone?
A
- Yes - This comes in handy for doing toasts,
blessings, and any other presentations.
Q
-
Do you carry back up
equipment?
A
- It is very unusual for any professional equipment
to malfunction. In the case of the "very unusual"
Mixmaster DJ Services does carry backup equipment.
We could use
either one of the two following sound
systems for your event.
1. Self Powered Speakers -
This means that each speaker is a system by itself.
These speakers are self contained with a speaker and an
amp built inside each unit. So if one speaker should
malfunction then the other speaker
(s) would still serve as the sound system. In
addition we carry extra cables and lights etc.
2. If we are bringing
non-powered speakers
system to your event, then
we also carry a back up amp system. In addition we
carry extra cables and lights etc.
Q
- What
requirements do you need for your setup?
A
- We require
2 separate tables (approx 4ft x 6ft) within 10 feet from
2 separate electrical plug
outlets / electricity. If the event is held outside we
also require shelter (tent etc.) from the outdoor
elements. It is also very important
to place the DJ next to the dance floor.

equipment that could be used for your
event.
MUSIC
Q
-
What type of music do you
play at a typical wedding reception?
A - We try to play all
types of music at wedding receptions as there is usually
a wide range of age groups attending your celebration.
We try to include a little music from all eras.
(Again, the bride and groom have an input
on the type of music they want
played at their reception). Naturally, (if desired) I
will have The Electric Slide, The Macarena, The Chicken
Dance, and lots and lots of other fun party songs.
Q
- Do you take requests?
A
-
Yes, during the reception, we will be
happy to play any requests that you have forwarded to
us, as well as take additional requests throughout the
evening from your guests. Of
course if we feel that the request is
inappropriate, or that it will lessen the enjoyment of
the majority of the guests we will act on our better
judgment. We also take into consideration songs that
you do not want played during your reception.
Below are a couple
guidelines set forth by Mixmaster DJ Services when
taking requests.
-
Songs must be clean in
lyrics.
-
Songs must be
recognizable by most of the guests at the reception.
-
Songs must be danceable
in format.
Of course. these are just
guidelines set forth my Mixmaster DJ Services for the
most enjoyment from your guests, however, the bride and
groom have the right to "over ride" these rules as they
see appropriate for their party.

OPTIONS
Q -
Do you
offer any options with your DJ service?
A
- Yes - Although a typical wedding reception comes with
a complete sound and light show, extensive music library
and all the planning needed to make your celebration a
success, we do offer a couple extras.
Below are
two (2) options offered by Mixmaster DJ Services to help
make your special day even more memorable!

Q
- Have many past
clients used either of these options?
A
- Yes - Again it is up to
you, but the party kits really do add a lot to the
event and the web page photos have received an
enormous amount of very positive feedback.
LINKS
Q
- Do you have a list of other
professionals in the wedding business?
A
- Yes - We have put
together some names and other contact information of
other people who are in the wedding industry to aid you
in finding the right person / business.

RATES /
BOOKINGS
Q -
How much do you charge?
A - All rates vary
based on event location, date, and time needed.
Although our rates are reasonable, I will save you a lot
of time, if you are "price shopping" and have decided to
book a DJ based solely on price. While I (and
many other satisfied clients) feel that our
service represents an
excellent value, we do not compete on price, we compete
on quality.

to do?

All events are booked on a
"first come first serve" basis, so should
you decide on Mixmaster DJ Services, the next step would
be to
contact Mike Miller (at 724-465-2571) so that we
can sign a contract, which includes a $200.00
non-refundable retainer fee. The signing of the
contract can be done in person or by mail. This
arrangement establishes a commitment for both parties.
The $200.00 would then be deducted from your final
charge which is due 14 days
prior to your reception date.

obligation consultation to learn more about your
services?
