Question 2

Are you LGBTQIA+ inclusive?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We were all made with the same elements, yet there is so much that makes us all unique. Imagine a world where everyone was the same. Sounds pretty boring right?

Question 3

Will we meet to discuss details?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely! When it comes to your wedding, we understand the significance of details, and meeting to discuss them is a crucial part of our service.

According to The Knot wedding website, the 2022 national average cost of a wedding was $30,000. Recognizing the substantial investment involved, we prioritize your peace of mind. Rest assured that with Vinylly Wed, the details of your wedding are as important to us as they are to you.

Our streamlined approach to event planning incorporates the use of a comprehensive CRM system, DJ Event Planner. This platform guides you through a short intake process, covering everything from account login information to deposit details, need-to-know information, music planning, and more. Utilizing cutting-edge technology ensures a smooth and efficient planning process for your convenience.

For clients who cannot meet via Zoom, FaceTime, or WebEx, we remain flexible and open to alternative means of meeting. Your comfort and accessibility are our priorities, and we are committed to accommodating your preferences.

To enhance the protection of both you and your investment, we emphasize the importance of meeting either in person or online before proceeding with planning the music for your wedding. This ensures a personalized experience that aligns seamlessly with your vision, making your celebration, where you, your friends, and family dance the night away, truly memorable. Connect with us to schedule your meeting and embark on the journey of creating the perfect soundtrack for your special day!

Question 5

Where do wedding djs get their music?

Accepted Answer

Short answer? Everywhere.

Salute to djs on constant lookout for new music or any music that helps to accomplish your vision!

Question 6

Will you take song requests the day of our event?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely.  We are happy to accommodate requests on the night of the event, within reason. Our main objective is to ensure everyone has a fantastic time and stays on the dance floor. However, please note that it can become difficult to manage if there are too many requests at once, or if guests request songs that conflict with the agreed-upon playlist. Our ultimate priority is to adhere to the wishes of our client.

Question 7

When will you need our song selections?

Accepted Answer

To give you the best possible experience, your DJ needs your song selections and overall music vision well before your wedding day. Thoughtful wedding coverage takes weeks of behind‑the‑scenes work: crafting a custom soundtrack for every part of the day, programming lighting, writing MC scripts, planning transitions, and rehearsing key moments.

Sending music within the last 30 days before your wedding should be considered the absolute last resort, not the goal. When song decisions arrive late, your DJ has far less time to prepare, which can limit how tailored, seamless, and polished your event will feel.

To serve you well, we recommend sharing your vision and key song selections as early in the planning process as possible, then finalizing everything no later than 30 days before your event. As your date approaches and you move within 7 days of the wedding, it becomes increasingly difficult to guarantee the same level of flow and continuity because of time constraints.

Question 8

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

If you decide to cancel for reasons that are not related to extreme weather conditions or acts of God, your deposit will not be refunded. However, if I am unable to perform for any reason, I will ensure that a suitable replacement is arranged.
