Choosing Your DJ
Ever wonder why there is such a price difference between DJs in our area? MME (Music Magic Events) is a registered and licensed business in our state and is fully insured. We are long standing members of the Twin Falls Chamber of Commerce, Jerome Chamber of Commerce and Visit Sun Valley. Our music is 100% legal and we never perform without a signed contract that protects you and guarantees we will be there. We do this for a living. We don’t work during the day as teachers, salesmen, ditch diggers, fast food, etc. We work on the planning and coordination of our events and give 100% dedication to our clients.
Having full-time jobs and doing that “DJ Thing” as a hobby on the weekends for extra cash leads to disasters for brides. There is hardly a month that goes by that we do not hear from a bride that has had a DJ cancel because they can’t make it or could not find “someone” to “play music” for them. As the most respected full-time event company in Southern Idaho, we have heard it all.
Do you really just want “someone” to “play music” or do you want a true professional that will take care of your guests, coordinate all the little details, and make your special day a success?
Qualifying an entertainment company may not be as easy as you think. Consider the criteria below before making your final selection. Protect yourself by demanding professionalism, first-rate customer service, and proof of the following:
- EXPERIENCE:
Is the company advertising they have “Flat Rates” and “Will Play until they lock the doors”? Are their prices too good to be true? Be warned, it is easy for anyone to say they are a DJ now days. All they need is a computer and a way to download songs from the internet. It is even easier for a company to send out inexperienced friends with a preprogrammed playlist on a laptop computer where all they do is press “play” and sit back or socialize and flirt with your guests. If this is what you want, MME is not for you.
- PROFESSIONAL:
Is the company that you’re considering a registered business in the state of Idaho and can they furnish a copy of their business license for your review? MME can!
Is it in good standing with the Better Business Bureau? MME is!
Do they have a real business office? MME does!
- APPEARANCE:
Will the company provide well groomed, formally attired professional entertainers for your occasion? MME will!
- EQUIPMENT:
Does the company’s equipment meet commercial & FCC standards? MME does!
Is the audio system enclosed and installed in its own console to compliment the appearance of your occasion or is it a laptop on a table? MME has sleek clean enclosed equipment racks with no ugly cords.
Does the company have back up equipment located at your event in case of equipment failure?
MME brings out back up equipment to your reception.
- CONTRACT:
Does the company provide a contract with dates, times, payment for services, and each party’s responsibilities, protecting you as the consumer? MME does!
- VALUE:
Are you receiving an hour’s worth of entertainment for each hour in the contract? Does the package you are considering include cocktail, dinner, and dancing?
MME packages are all-inclusive covering your entire event with no hidden charges.
- INSURANCE:
Can the company provide a certificate of insurance to cover:
*Personal Injury… A guest trips on a cable and fractures a hip.
*Property Damage… Equipment is dropped and cracks a marble floor tile
MME can!
- SERVICE:
Is the business available during regular business hours to answer your questions or are you talking to a machine or answering service? MME is a full-time company.
Do they offer day, evening, and weekend appointments available for your convenience and a real office?
MME does!
- CONSULTATION:
Are you provided with information that suggests this company is concerned about your needs or expectations? MME cares!
- MUSIC:
Does the company maintain a comprehensive music library that is suited to fit a variety of musical tastes and age ranges?
Do they use illegally downloaded songs that could have law enforcement officers crashing your special day? In case you did not know, songs downloaded from iTunes and Youtube by the user agreement are illegal to use for commercial use. They are also of very poor quality.
Is the original source for the music 100% paid for from a licensed provider?
MME uses state-of-the-art Hi-definition digital music sources. We carry over 150,000 songs for you to choose from… all 100% legal.
- PERSONNEL:
Does the company you’re considering have entertainers that are experienced in acting as master of ceremonies, interacting, and entertaining your family and friends? MME does!

Make the right choice.
