• Do you have a customer satisfaction or refund policy?
  We work with each client in the beginning stages of planning the wedding to ensure that we understand the exact desires of each couple so we can ensure that every wedding is a success.
• What are your qualifications? Have you been professionally trained or certified?
  Advanced Entertianment is a member of the San Diego Wedding Association and also the Association of Bridal Consultants (San Diego) and has been licensed as a professional DJ company since 1994. We are true leaders in the San Diego Wedding community and network with many other wedding professionals to ensure that every wedding is the best it can be.
• What are your hourly rates?
  We charge $1,200 for the 1st 4 hours and $100.00 per hour beyond that. This price includes setup, teardown, mics. a light show, and everything needed to have a successful wedding. Please don't be fooled by quotes that seem low without first knowing what is included. Many DJ companies lure you in with a low-ball price and then charge you for everything that we include in our quote.

  We require a $200.00 deposit with a signed contract to book the event. As long as there is a 90 notice, we will refund the deposit if the event has been cancelled.
• What is your experience? How many events have you done?
  We have been doing weddings in San Diego since 1994. We average 3 to 4 weddings per month for each DJ.
• Do you specialize in a specific genre of music?
  Yes - Clean Radio Edits. As a wedding DJ, we are used to playing music for a wide variety of age groups. A wedding is about the only function where you will hear everything from Frank Sinatra to Nelly in one night.
• Do you take requests?
  We take down the requested styles of music from the bride and groom during the interview process which allows us to take requests from the guests during the wedding as long as they fall within those guidelines.
• Can I provide my own music?
  Any music that is provided by the bride and groom is gladly accepted. However, we do not accept music from guests who claim they have downloaded the greatest song from the internet and burned it for us to use as we cannot guarantee that there is no foul language or verify the quality of the recording.
• Do you have back-up equipment in case of failure?
  We have 10 DJ systems that are loaded and ready to go at a moments notice. We also keep a thorough maintenance on our equipment to ensure that there are no equipment failures. In 12 year of providing music for weddings, we have not had one equipment failure but we are always ready with a backup system if needed.
• Will you also be the Master of Ceremonies (MC)?
  In the absence of a Professional Wedding Coordinator, we not only MC, but function as the reception coordinator.
• What is your standard attire?
  We wear a tuxedo to the wedding to ensure our professional appearance, however, we do not want to outdress the groom and always make sure a tux is appropriate during the planning stages.
• Are you insured?
  Yes. We carry a 2 million dollar liability policy. If another DJ is not licensed or insured, then they do not take themselves or their job seriously and you should look for a professional DJ and not a hobbyist.
• How are you different from other disc jockeys?
  We are true professionals in every sense of the word. We know that your wedding is not about us and therfore we strive to keep the focus of the day on you and your guest. We are very "Anti-Cheese" and do not put on a false "radio" voice. Our motto is simple: "It's All About You".
