Enough for 250 people indoors without ever hitting the limiter.
Two controllers, two laptops, a UPS on the booth. A dead cable has never stopped a set.
Uplighting matched to your palette, plus four moving heads kept subtle until the last hour.
We gave Rio a five-song list and a warning that our families do not dance. Both families danced. My uncle asked for a business card.
Booked for a 400-person launch. Showed up two hours early, sorted out our venue’s awful house system, and never once talked over the music.
Genuinely great night. Only note: the ceremony mic was a touch hot for the first reading. Fixed inside a minute.
Yes, if they fit. You get a shared list before the day for must-plays and never-plays, and I’ll hold the line on the never-plays even when someone’s brother-in-law insists.
Introductions, the first dance, the cake, last call. That’s it unless you ask for more.
Included on the six-hour package — separate speaker at the front, lapel mic on the officiant, handheld for readings.
I’m in a five-DJ network across Chicago. You’d get a named replacement with your full planning notes, or your deposit back, your call.
Dates are held for 72 hours while you decide. Deposit is 30%, the rest is due the week of.
