What should you expect at your "no-cost/no-obligation" consultation?

  We listen to you.

     We listen to you.  We approach our first meeting with our potential clients a little differently than some.  Instead
     of trying to "wow you," and giving you a sales-pitch, we approach it as an information-gathering and planning

     session. We don't have a need to be heard... we want to hear about you.

     At your initial consultation, we take the time to get to know you, your fiance, and what you are looking for in your   

     wedding.  While getting to know you, we will start to talk specifics and will start to walk you through our planning

     process so you can get a feel for the kinds of planning services we offer and where we will be when we are done. 

  We get you involved from the beginning.

     We will provide you with tons of ideas and a package of the planning materials we will be using that is yours to

     keep.  It is important to us that you understand just what it is you are actually "paying for" when you hire our

     services.  We understand that you are putting a great deal of trust in the dj service you hire for your wedding.  With

     some services it is hard to get a feel beforehand of how they will go about ensuring the success of your event or

     how prepared they will be when it counts the most.  With some services you just have to make a leap of faith. 

     When you hire Sounds To Go, we want you to feel certain that your trust and faith in us is justified.  The best way

     to do that is to give you an overview of the planning process we use, and to get you involved in it right from the

     beginning.

     Of course we "play music" and "make announcements," but there is so much more to a successful event, and by

     getting you involved in our planning process during this first free consultation, it is our hope that you will get an idea

     of just how much we actually put into your wedding well before the day itself arrives.
 
 We answer your questions.

     After we have gone over all of the particulars of your event and given you an overview of our planning services, we

     will take some time to go over the nuts-and-bolts...  Our policies, pricing for your event, our payment terms, our

     contract, etc. 

 We give you the space and the time to make your buying decision without high-pressure sales-tactics.

     You can either sign your contract on-the-spot and have the peace-of-mind of knowing you have one of the most

      important aspects of your wedding taken care of, or you can feel free to get back to us after you have had time to

      make an informed buying decision.  Either way, you will never encounter high-pressure sales-tactics with Sounds

      To Go.  We believe that our customer service, the planning services we offer, and our overall attitude will all speak

      for themselves.

      (And sure, having a long list of happy clients helps too... Please see our Testimonials page and explore our list of

      references at your leisure once we have met to discuss your event.) 

What happens after you decide to use Sounds To Go?

  You do your homework :)

     After our initial consultation, if you decide to engage our services for your wedding, the "next step" is for you and

     your fiance to utilize the planning materials we will provide you with to start the planning process.  We offer

     unlimited phone, email, and in-person consultation as needed prior to the wedding itself to help you through this

     process.

  We schedule a final appointment to go over ALL of the details and plan your event from

     beginning-to-end.

     Finally, about two-to-three weeks (typically) prior to the wedding date, we schedule what is almost always our

     second and final consultation appointment with you to help you compile and organize all of the information you have

     come up with since our first initial meeting.  All of this information is then laid out to reflect your ceremony and

     reception time lines, along with all of the information needed to make it run smoothly.  It is during this time that we

     will go over what announcements you would like made, the manner you would like them made in, how you would

     like your introductions, the order and pacing of your special events, finalizing music selections and playlists, etc.
   
  We provide you with your final itinerary for you to review.

     After this meeting, we then consolidate all of this information into the final itinerary for your special day, outlining it

     from beginning to end.  You then have this information to review well before the wedding itself to make sure it is

     accurate or make any changes you wish.
    
  You're done!  You can relax with peace-of-mind knowing that your dj is more than prepared.

     It really is that simple... two appointments, a few emails, and we are done.

     While many other services may be very quick to point out that they "only need" one appointment for planning prior

     to your wedding, and while they may try to spin this as being "more convenient for you," we really need to ask just  

     how much detail they are gathering, and how much personal attention they are paying to you and your event.  Sure,

     we could just drop all of our forms on you like the other guys and tell you to mail them to us two weeks before the

     wedding, but that's just not our style, and that wouldn't be giving you the attention to detail and personal service we

     feel you deserve for your wedding.
