Your wedding music, will be a major component to your reception. Not only will the music set the right tone and create the atmosphere you're going for, but the DJ will also help to gracefully keep the evening's events flowing smoothly from one moment to the next. The best DJs are booked well in advance – Infinity DJ is already booking 2 years in advance, so be sure to act quickly. To get you started, we've put together this list of questions and answers that we are most commonly asked.
Infinity DJ can accommodate all styles, we are very knowledgeable at all genres of music. We mix music to please everyone, and commonly start with oldies and classic wedding songs early in the night to top 40 and dance at the end.
Yes, but keep in mind we need to get approval from the bride and groom because this is a private event. Not all brides and grooms will allow this considering you are not invited guests. Plus if you arrive during dinner, you will not see much except people eating. The time you want to see is for the grand march and special dances. Because timing is never exact, you would need to stay at the hall for an average of an hour and a half (usually between 8 and 9:30pm.)
We have performed at nearly every hall and location within Sheboygan and surrounding counties. We require only an area of 10 feet by 6 feet and one 15 amp breaker. We have never encountered a location that does not meet these requirements. If we have never performed at the location, we call the location and verify our requirements.
We have a full worksheet that you can fill out that outlines your entire reception with page of please play and do not play songs. We also take requests within reason (we do not play music that will not fit your reception or customize it to your wishes)
With every wedding DJ package is included lights. Some packages only include 2 lights, other packages include up to 4 or more. Everyone chooses package 2 or 3. Package 2 is the best value.
We completely setup and take down equipment. Setup is free and does not count against booked time. For instance if you have music from 5p to 11p, we will arrive at 4:15pm, setup, play music from 5p to 11p without taking a break, and end music at 11pm, then break down.
We routinely monitor the sound level. We use directional speakers so the dance floor is loud and other areas music can be heard but not loudly. People can comfortably talk off of the dance floor.
We commonly wear dress slacks (khaki or dark colored with a dress shirt and tie. We may wear a short sleeve dress shirt or polo if the temperature is warmer than normal or air conditioning is not available (outdoor wedding)
It varies per package, we have 4 hours, 6 hours (most commonly picked), or unlimited time*
* unlimited time does not include ceremony music and is only one setup location.
People can request songs at any time, we encourage it! Some songs may not be appropriate or have swearing in them. We try not to play songs that do not match what the crowd is interested in.
Master of Ceremonies is included free with every package.
Since winning the best DJ in Sheboygan award voted by the Sheboygan press for multiple years, we have added employees that have years of experience entertaining happy wedding receptions. We average combined 60 weddings per year.
Typically on the same day no. If we do, we plan ahead of time to account for traffic, unforeseen events and setup time.
We have many backup djs that are on-call 24x7. We also work with recommended companies. If someone is sick or injured and cannot perform, we have someone available ASAP. In the contract if we cannot perform, you will get a full refund (including deposit).
Deposits or retainers are non-refundable if the date is canceled. We only require 1/2 down to book the date. If you re-schedule up to a year after and we are available, the deposit will be applied to the new date.
