Frequently Asked Questions


How Long Have You Been In The Wedding Business?
All of the DJs who work for Scottie Alexander Entertainment have a minimum of 5 years professional DJing experience, with most of our DJs having 10 or more years of professional DJing experience.


What Equipment Do You Use?
We only use state-of-the-art professional DJ equipment that minimizes wires and doesn’t look bulky.


What Is Your Backup Plan If Something Hapens To My DJ?
We always retain one DJ per weekend in each location as a backup in the event of an emergency.


Wil The DJ Play My Requests?
Our DJs do take requests and may play some of them. Our DJs “filter” requests, meaning they will not play a song that you specifically asked the DJ not to play or music from a genre you asked the DJ not to play. We will not play songs off of Youtube when asked. If someone makes a request that fits in well with what the DJ is playing at the time and with the music the client wants, then the DJ may play the request. We have an online planning system that will allow you to make request lists before the event.


Can We Bring Our Own Music For The DJ To Play?
Sure, but we would like to get the music file(s) in advance of the event. If doing this please consider the audience attending your event.


Do I Tip The DJ?
We do not include gratuity in the final contract price. 10 – 20% is generally recommended if your DJ did a great job, but it is entirely up to you.


What Services Do You Offer?
We offer DJ services for wedding ceremonies and receptions, corporate events, private parties, and school functions. We offer lighting options (uplighting and dance floor lighting) and have photo booths available.


When Should I Book My DJ?
A good time frame is at least six months before the event. However, we have DJs available for last minute events as well. Click here to check date availability.


How Many Songs Should I Request?
You can select songs that you would like to hear at your event (as well as songs you don’t want to hear) through our online planning system. You will receive login information for that system in an email with your contract. The number of songs you request is totally up to you! We recommend giving your DJ at least 10-15 songs of different genres and artists that you would like to hear. A few songs/artists that you don’t want to hear is always helpful as well. If you end up requesting a lot of songs, just keep in mind the time constraints of your event. During your initial consultation, your DJ will ask about your music preferences.


Do You Have Samples Of Your DJ's Work?
We do not post any of our wedding or event mixes as each event we do is unique to that client.
