Q. Why should I choose Flamingo Enterprises for my event?
A. The DJ is the final piece to your event puzzle. A great DJ can leave your guests wanting more, a poor DJ will send them home early. We believe we are a great DJ service. With glowing recommendations from many clients and reception locations, we believe we offer real value with the services we provide. There are a lot of DJ's out there, some more expensive, some less expensive - but we have the personality, the experience, and the equipment to make sure your night is worry free - which means all you have to do is relax and enjoy the party!
Q. Do you have references available?
A. Certainly. Many of the clients we've served and the reception halls we've played in recommend us. Feel free to give us a call to get their contact information.
Q. Can I book the photo booth with out booking the DJ?
A. Sure. The photo booth and DJ service are separate entities of the same company. Each service can be booked with - or with out each other. Book them together though and get the "combination booking discount"!
Q. How much/what kind of music do you have?
A. Our music library has more than 20,000 songs and is continuously growing. We have a very wide range of music with selections as far back as the "Big Band" era to the Country, Pop, and Hip Hop hits of today. A DJ's music library must be big enough and diverse enough to keep everyone happy - everyone from Grandma Sue to little Cousin Joey.
Q. Can I (or my guests) request songs?
A. Of course. The bride and groom will have an opportunity to fill out an event planner before the event to choose any song requests you may have. In addition to your requests, we also ask for and accept requests from the crowd throughout the event. We are also now able to connect to wireless internet in most locations, making it possible for us to download a song if we don't already have it.
Q. How far do you travel?
A. We will travel most anywhere for an event. Events within 100 miles of our office in Annandale, Mn will have no travel fees. This includes free travel to places like St. Cloud, Alexandria, Monticello, Princeton, Mora, Hutchinson, and most of the Metro Area. If your event is beyond 100 miles, our mileage rates are very reasonable, contact us for a price quote for your area.
Q. Are you one of those annoying DJ's that talk all night long?
A. No way! Our philosophy has always been that people are there to listen to and dance to the music while having a good time with the bride and groom. No DJ should ever try to outshine the guests of honor, or think that they were hired to be the next "American Idol" or a stand-up comedian. We will introduce certain songs, keep the flow of the night moving, even lead games and activities if you like, but always keeping it professional.
Q. Can you provide sound for our outdoor/non-traditional wedding ceremony?
A. Yes. We have 2 complete sound systems, and almost always travel with two trained DJ's, so providing sound at your ceremony isn't a problem. Rates for ceremonies vary depending on many different factors, so please contact us to discuss the details of your day.
Q. Do you require a meal at our reception?
A. While it is always up to our clients, it is very much appreciated if we are asked to eat with your guests. The DJ is almost always the first to arrive to the reception, and the last to leave - often times logging more than 10 hours including set-up and tear-down time.
Q. Do we need to tip our DJ/Photo Booth?
A. Only if you wish to. There are a lot of different views on tipping, but our view is clear - We will never ask for or expect a tip, but If you feel that our service was everything you had hoped for and warrants a tip, it is always very much appreciated.
