Our care and concern for your special event is second only to your own. We are able to bring our experience from over a thousand performances to your one special night. We believe that being a successful disc jockey requires 100% musical expertise, 100% customer service satisfaction, and 100% professionalism. The investment you make in our company reflects the expertise and quality we bring to your special event.

You never have to pay for setup or takedown time. We typically arrive almost an hour prior to your scheduled start time and will be set up long before your first guest arrives. The same applies for takedown time after your event.

Our services are truly uninterrupted and non-stop. From our scheduled start time to our scheduled end time we will never pause to take a break. Much unlike bands that need to stop and rest, we can just keep playing straight through your event!

You'll be unbelievably amazed at how flexible we are when it comes to music selection! That's because in the past 10 years we've learned that keeping the dance floor packed is influenced by many factors, including the order and style in which the songs are played, the way songs are mixed together, and DJ interaction...not just which songs are played.
We've had clients that have chosen every song for the entire event and others that have left the music selection completely up to us. Our recommendation is to provide us with a list of "must play" songs and list of "play if possible" songs. This will leave plenty of room for requests from your guests and DJ selections. You may also stipulate that we not take requests from you guests. But have fun and select music you want to hear and dance to. After all, it's your event!

Sometimes the do not play list is equally important or more important than the request list itself! We understand that you don't want to hear the song you and your "ex" danced to. Or maybe you've been to one too many weddings lately and are sick of the typical wedding songs. Any specific songs or general types of music you absolutely hate should go on your "do not play" list. So don't feel as though we have to play the chicken dance and hokey pokey...we don't! Rest assured that if a guest requests a song that is on your "do not play" list, it will not be played.

In this case, we would be more than happy to get the songs play your CD. As you're making your request list, simply indicate which songs you'll be providing. You can bring your CDs to us at the start of the event and we'll promptly return them to you at the end.

One of the greatest complaints of bands and DJs alike is that they play the music too loud. It doesn't have to be that way!

A very familiar question! Often times when a prospective client is looking for the perfect DJ they search for one who fits the level of interaction they're looking for, whether it be conservative or outgoing. We actually let you decide how much interaction you would like. We can be conservative, outgoing, or anywhere in between. By default, we're only as interactive as necessary to keep your guests having a good time on the dance floor. In any case, you'll never hear one of our DJs yelling, screaming, or even singing over the microphone. Even at our most outgoing level, we still remain totally professional and never steal the spotlight!

This is a very understandable concern. We, too, have heard horror stories from people who went to see a particular DJ and then got a completely different and absolutely horrible DJ at their event. You can work with your DJ every step of the way, having plenty of opportunity to share with him exactly how you'd like your event to proceed. Have peace of mind because never will a complete stranger show up at your event!

Studio-edited video demos can make anything look appealing! For this reason, we've decided the only way a prospective client can make an informed decision is to see the DJ firsthand. So come on out and see us in action! Often times once dancing starts the banquet room doors are propped open. You can very easily sneak a quick peek without crashing the party or intruding. It's an excellent way to see how the DJ interacts, hear the quality of sound, and view the complete DJ system set up...all things you can't effectively observe from a video.
Please keep in mind when you come out that the hosts of the event have selected the music they would like to hear and the amount of interaction they would like to have. So if you hear the hokey pokey, it doesn't mean we have to play it at your event! Since we would never take time away from a current event to book a future event, please feel free to contact us the following day with any questions. We will always gladly honor a client's request to have their event remain private. If you can't make it out to a live event, we can set up a phone conference to discuss all the details.

We travel to anywhere in the Greater Boston/Eastern New England area. If you think your event may be taking place outside of this area, please contact us and we'll let you know if we serve that area.

Absolutely. Our contract is straightforward and written in plain English so that you can understand the terms before signing. It is signed by both parties and offers you a high level of protection and dependability. With the contract you can be assured that there will be no hidden extra charges or surprises at your event. The signed contract and deposit officially reserves your date and of course an executed copy will be sent to you for your records. If you have any questions or concerns about the terms, just ask!

By no means is tipping/gratuity mandatory or expected. Evelyn Entertainment charges a professional rate for a professional service. This means you won't see a tip jar on our table. If at the end of the night you feel that we have surpassed your expectations and you want to tip us, we would accept it as the utmost compliment. But you're under no obligation to do so.

One of our most popular questions! The answer is that it is completely up to you. With setup and takedown time, we'll often be at your event for nearly 8 hours. Our only request is that you let us know either way ahead of time. This way we can stop and pick something up along the way, if necessary. If you choose to provide a meal for the DJ, we'd greatly appreciate it. We suggest not including us in your count since usually at least one guest doesn't show. But don't worry if you're working on a tight budget because there is no meal clause of any kind in our contract!

We require a $100 deposit and signed contract to reserve your date. The final payment of the remaining balance is due at least 14 days (2 weeks) prior to your event date. We will gladly accept your personal check, certified check, cashier's check, or money order. You can also pay on the date of your event in cash prior to the scheduled start time. However settling up before the date works best since it will give you the freedom to relax and enjoy your event!

Simply put...the sooner the better! Some of the most popular dates can and do book as early as one year in advance. Our suggestion is to be prepared to sign a contract as early as 8-12 months before. Depending on availability some dates remain open until the month before. So if you're planning an event for next month, it's worth it to check our availability. If you're just starting your planning, try to make your final decision as soon as possible to ensure our availability.

Our rates are based on our cost of doing business as well as the value we place on the job. We take all events seriously and attend to each in a professional manner. We're confident you will find our prices to be exceptionally competitive. If our prices are a bit more than you planned to spend, just remember the old saying "you get what you pay for." When you book our services you're not only paying for incredible DJ entertainment, you're paying for peace of mind.
