Rates start out as low as $495.00 and go
up depending on Entertainment, location, day, times and equipment required.
For example, 99% of Wedding Receptions are held on
Saturdays, therefore, we can do a Friday cheaper!
Also, sometimes the venue is very small and doesn't require
as much equipment or lighting.
Our STANDARD rate for DJ's is $795.00 and is all inclusive. We arrive
at your venue about 1 1/2 - 2 hours prior to your guests
arriving and set everything up and do sound and light
checks. We play cocktail hour music of your choice as people
flow in until the dinner starts. Then we typically soften it
up with some nice dinner music. Once the dinner is over, the
cake has been cut and the toasts have been given, we
normally pick it up a bit to get people excited for the
dance as the venue staff clears tables and prepares the
dance floor. When everything is all set, we turn down the
lights and invite the Bride and Groom to the dance floor for
their first dance as Husband and Wife. After that we do the
other traditional dances of your choice like the
Father/Daughter dance etc. Then, we get the party started!
We play until midnight or 1 AM depending on your agreement
with the venue. Additional time can be negotiated if the
venue allows and your guests are demanding it!
What do we charge extra for?
We charge $150.00 extra to do the ceremony music as it
usually requires more time and equipment.
We charge $50.00 extra to include Karaoke.
We charge extra for live bands...call for a quote.
We charge extra for receptions beyond 30 miles of
Brainerd/Baxter. (rate depends on how far)
We charge extra for playing past 1 AM. (negotiable at the
time)
Will you receive a written contract?
Yes. Every client that engages Alpha Entertainment to
perform at their function will receive a written contract
that details all the issues pertaining to the event. If your
Entertainment
will not give you a written contract, then you are best off
to keep looking. A contract protects both parties. Always
get a contract!
Do you have to pay for set up or tear
down?
No, we do not charge you for set up and tear down. With our
prices there are no hidden costs.
Do we require a deposit?
We usually ask for a $100 non-refundable deposit to reserve your
selected date. The deposit amount will be subtracted from
the total cost of your event.
What is our policy on
"holding" dates for someone?
Our policy is very simple and fair to both parties. All
dates are on a first come first served basis. If you call or
email us about a particular date and it is open, that's
great! Once we agree on a fee and we send you a "written"
price quote, that date is reserved for you for a period of 7
days. If we do not receive your deposit and signed agreement
within the 7 days, the date once again becomes available to
the next person that may want it. If we DO receive your deposit and signed agreement by the
deadline, then the date is all yours and you don't have to
worry about the entertainment any longer!
