Why should we choose MOBILE MUSIC?
As the Originators of Chicago-Style Interactive Entertainment, MOBILE MUSIC is constantly evolving to be the best we can be and in turn making your event the best it can be. We take pride in our staff; our dedicated DJs, enthusiastic MCs, and dynamic Dancers undergo a training process before they ever set foot at your event. This training continues monthly with informative meetings and vigorous rehearsals. Even our office and technical staff are kept up to speed on the latest information to assist in making your event outstanding! When can we reach you?
Our office hours are Monday - Friday; 8:00 am - 5:00 pm CST. We are always happy to answer any question you may have and we look forward to scheduling a personal appointment with you in our North Shore Showroom during regular business hours. If this is inconvenient for you, we are pleased to schedule evening appointments upon availability. We can also schedule private dance lessons for the guest of honor or the entire family with one of our friendly and highly-trained dance instructors! Do you hold dates and performers?
Due to the volume of events we produce and the continual request for our performers locally and nationwide, we can tentatively hold your date for 30 days, once we send you a performance agreement. Specific requests for MCs, DJs, and Dancers are on a first come/first serve basis and your booking is only confirmed upon receipt of your signed contract and deposit. Benefits to booking early for you are peace of mind that a major element of your celebration’s success is taken care of and you secure today’s prices and are not subject to higher prices as your event nears. Of course, remember, you can always upgrade your package as the specifics of your celebration change; however, prices are secured only on the elements you have booked with a deposit. Who will perform at our party?
MOBILE MUSIC has over 50 talented MCs, DJs, and Interactive Dancers. You can make your selection from parties you have attended, our many showcases performed throughout the year, promotional materials or word of mouth. If you choose to leave the selection to our highly capable office staff, we will assign the most appropriate crew to your event based on the needs and specifics of your celebration. What types of payment do you accept?
We accept cash, check, money order, certified check, Visa, Master Card, and American Express. All prices reflect a 3.5% cash discount; if payment is by credit card, no cash discount will be applied. What is your cancellation policy?
Deposits are nonrefundable. Although we handle many events simultaneously, all to our exacting standards of performance, when we reserve a specific date for you, we block out crew, equipment, and vehicles. In doing so, we accept only a certain number of bookings for any given date/time. Because of the administrative costs and confirmation of staffing, if cancellation is within 30 days of the date of your event, the entire contracted balance is due. What if the staff I contracted is no longer with you when my party happens?
Each member of our performance staff is a professional with the highest of ethics. Once contracted for your party, they will make every effort to fulfill their commitment to MOBILE MUSIC and to YOU. In the unfortunate case of illness or emergency, MOBILE MUSIC will use our decades of experience and professionalism to provide you the right alternative to ensure a seamless transition and an outstanding party. How many Dancers do I need?
Based on years of event production, we recommend one (1) Dancer for every 20-30 guests (Adults, included); of course the final choice is always up to you. Will the music be appropriate?
ALWAYS! We play music selections that are appropriate for all ages and in good taste that will keep your party moving. We use elevated speaker systems to direct sound towards the dance floor, while allowing conversation level at guests’ tables. We equalize our sound system at each venue to maximize quality and minimize echo and feed back. And yes, we have a volume control! I know that our Guest of Honor is reserved and will not want to be the center of attention; how do you handle that?
As each of our performances is as individual as you, we will customize what we do to provide a stress free celebration for your Guest of Honor. Our staff will take the time to get the specific needs, likes and dislikes from you beforehand so there are no surprises onsite at your event. I know that our party is one of many this year, so do you have a song list for me to make requests so my party is different?
No, we don’t. Each of our DJs carries their own complete music library with over 30,000 song titles. Our approach is to review, with you, your celebration specifics and custom tailor your event. Since none of our events are pre-programmed, our team of MCs and DJs read your crowd, mix in specific requests, and play the music best suited to create as much excitement as possible and to interactively keep everyone involved! We want to incorporate more of the religious or traditional aspects into our event; can your staff handle that?
We are proud to have a culturally diverse staff. All of our MCs and DJs are well versed in the many traditions and understand their importance. During our confirmation process with you, we will determine the elements that are important to you and ensure our performers incorporate them into your special celebration. When do we confirm and finalize details with you?
We are more than happy to speak or meet with you regarding your event at ANYTIME. We know that you may have questions and concerns that arise throughout the planning process and we will be here to guide you along the way. We will also have questions for you; however those mostly likely will not be able to be answered until we get closer to your celebration date. At that time, a member of our Operations department will contact you to review itinerary, speeches, toasts, music requests, and anything else we need to know to make your event a truly spectacular “affair to remember.” What type of equipment do you use?
Only industry standard, performance sound and lighting gear is used. All equipment is meticulously maintained and professionally transported for quality assurance. BACKUP EQUIPMENT IS ALWAYS ON SITE. If I purchase my own giveaways or passouts will your staff still distribute them?
Absolutely! Also keep in mind that through our company, Custom Specialty Promotions, we can provide you customized items for your event at competitive pricing. You can also order dance floor giveaways from our online PARTY STORE where you can drop ship the order to us and we will bring your items prepped and ready to go to your event.
