Entertainment DJ Package Information
Thank you for your inquiry into our
services. I am Eric Godfrey and I
manage Starz Entertainment with my wife
Lisa and our managers, Matt and Phil.
John and Matt manage all weddings,
corporate events, and private parties.
I have been DJ’ing all of these events
for about 31 years now and have done
over 1600 weddings and over 1500
other events.

The
two most important factors in your event are
these!
-
Your entire event will run the way you
want it to with the music you want to
hear!
-
All of your guests will totally enjoy
their evening and tell you what a great
time they had!
WE MAKE SURE YOU ARE SATISFIED, AND HERE IS
HOW WE DO IT!
-
Event Planner –
You
pre-select the music selection,
specialty songs, and any special
announcements. This lets us know
exactly how you want things
done. Your interactive
event planning guide is placed on our
site when you make a reservation. Be
sure to put in a password as this is
what allows you to access it. If you
miss the password we can add it for you
and send it to you. We give discounts
for not making us play the chicken dance
or the hokey pokey (just kidding -
discounts for adding multiple items in
choosing your package)
-
Personality of DJ –
You
pick the type of personality that best
suits you, from outgoing to easy going,
lots of talk to just play the music….
You’re the boss! ----No
charge for several sarcasm laced, witty
comments by one of our DJ's - The
comments are only funny if we don't tell
you now. No extra charge to keep our
comments to ourselves. Just let us know
what you want!
-
Request Are Gladly Taken – We try
to get requests up front, but obviously
there will be requests at your event.
We will
put our music selection up against
anyone. Hits from 1930-today! Only $5
each extra to play the Hokey Pokey,
Chicken Dance, Bunny Hop, or Macarena.
Electric Slide and YMCA are only $10
each (Just kidding again.....any song
is free at your request
any time)
-
Elevated Speaker System / Wireless
Microphones –
Our
smaller speakers are on stands with
volume set to your preference. If you
buy one of our larger packages the
speakers will tower above you so there
is no need for stands. A wireless
microphone is included at every event at
no additional charge. (great for toasts)
Some of our speakers are taller than our
DJ's.... so keep looking... he's back
there somewhere!
-
“Get the Party Started” Activities
–
At your request, Starz DJ’s can use fun
events to get your guests involved in
the fun at your event. For personal
reasons we have discontinued "Pin the
tail on the DJ". As soon as I can sit
down again we'll come up with another
game to replace it.
-
Full Lighting Show –
Most
venues offer no special lighting. We
offer a standard lighting package for
almost all our DJ events (We do not
include lighting with our budget wedding
package as it was designed to help the
couple that is trying to keep costs at
an absolute minimum)
at no
additional cost. This allows
the DJ to control the lighting for the
entire event, creating the atmosphere
you want for your special event. Most
events include: At least 2
lighting fixtures with multi colored
criss-crossing light patterns that move
to the beat of the music. Our larger
packages for senior proms and large
corporate events include lighting
trusses filled with lighting effects and
fog (if desired)
Occasionally, we like to turn up the
music really loud... when the police
arrive we find their lights are pretty
cool as well. Unfortunately this
sometimes shortens our evening (OK, if
you have not realized by now we're
kidding again)
-
Full-time Professional Service
–
We ran
our business part time for years, but
now we have a full time staff and are
always available to take care of your
needs We have never missed a scheduled
event in 20+ years. We carry 9 full
sets of equipment and 1 set of back up
gear. We have 14 other hosts available
to cover events in the event of anyone
getting ill or having problems. We keep
a set of equipment staged in a van every
weekend ready to deliver to anyone who
needs anything (We often have 10-12
shows running on a Saturday Night)
No jokes here, we're total
professionals, you know?
-
We
are a full service karaoke company.
We have the largest
selections available in the Phoenix
metro area on all of our sets. Karaoke
can be included in your event if you
would like it (small additional fee).
We need to know ahead of time so we
bring the extra gear.
You'll absolutely love hearing
some of our wonderfully talented singing
hosts. If Eric is your host he promises
not to sing if you tip him really well.
-
Free
web site posting of pictures:
Provide
us with digital copies or actual photo
copies from your event and we will post
them on our website and leave them for a
year. We will provide you with links
you can send to anyone in the world to
view the pictures.
What a great way for you to share your
events with friends and relatives who
could not travel to be with you. The
key point to remember about pictures is
that we promise that none of our DJ's
will be better looking than the groom or
guest of honor... It's their event and
we don't want to take away any of the
attention.
-
While we almost
never turn down a meal at an event (it's
a long day and we do get hungry) we ask
that you do not feed the DJ's any extra
snacks. They are all on high calorie
diets and this would not help them....
some of our Karaoke hosts could use the
extra food (Tawny, Vanessa) ... please
use your best judgment.
We look forward to helping you with your
event.
Please let us know if we can
provide any further information.
Thank You,
Starz Entertainment Admin Staff

Pricing
packages:
This is what
we will do for you:
Absolutely professional disc jockey
service combined with professional event
coordination at no extra charge.
Look at it as 2 services for the price
of one.
Every
client has 24/7 access to our online
planning guides that can be used and
modified at your discretion. The
links below are available for helping
you as well as your personalized
planning guide:
All of our
packages are all inclusive - We want to
avoid any hidden charges or extras that
inflate your price .
Every
package includes an awesome professional
sound system, a lighting package,
cordless mic, and a professional DJ or
DJ team to guide you through your event.
We provide up front consultation
(scheduled at your convenience) on every
event to make sure you get what you are
looking for. Need us at a
rehearsal? Say the word and we are
there? NO EXTRA COST!
NO
WORRIES! - We will personally coordinate
your event so you can relax.
We have
been providing entertainment since 1980
and have been here in Phoenix since
1997.
While we do
give guidelines below, we prefer to meet
with you in person to discuss pricing
specifically for your event. Every
package is custom designed to exactly what
you need: Various events have
different amounts of equipment, personnel
and coordination required. We
provide these planning helpers and then meet
with you to discuss all aspects of your
event. We often follow up with a
second meeting after you have had time to
digest all the info. We also are
available constantly to assist you or answer
questions.
Cost
considerations:
You will pay
as much as $90 per plate for dinner at your
event. Even more affordable facilities
average $20-$30 per plate. You will
pay normally $1500 to $3000 for videography
and / or photography. Flowers will
typically run about $1000 to $2000.
Even cakes can run over $800.
Decorations ... same ballpark. A Standard
vegetable or appetizer tray is over $500.
How much of that do you remember a year
later?
Our DJ will
coordinate your entire evening and run the
entire event and make it truly memorable.
You will always remember the party you had,
which was made fun by the entertainment
provided making it run well. Our
prices are extremely reasonable and we
guarantee we'll help to make your event run
smoothly with everyone having fun. One
of our fellow DJ's talks about dropping off
one of your veggie plates at $5.00 per
person. We are not telling you to do
that, but to decide what costs are
contributing to the overall success of your
event. Which makes the evening more
memorable.....the veggie tray, the
decorations, the flowers or the person
running the entire evening?
More than 1/2
of the entertainment companies in this town
go out of business annually. Do you
really want to trust your event to someone
with no professional credentials, no
industry alliances, no insurance, no
professional equipment and music downloaded
illegally on the internet? We hear
every day about people getting burned by the
DJ that just did not show up or who had an
equipment failure with no back - up.
Be careful! Use a professional. We are
members of the Better Business Bureau, the
American Association of Wedding
Professional, The Phoenix Wedding and Event
Network, the
National Association of Mobile Entertainers
and many other professional groups.
All of our DJ's are required to go through
DJ certification with the FAME DJ School and
required to do a number of events under
instruction. DJ's in Phoenix run from
about $250 to $2500 for an event depending
on who you go with. We have way more
experience then most DJ's in Phoenix, we are
true professionals that deliver the day that
you want with more personalized attention
then you will get from almost every vendor.
We offer outstanding equipment and
personalities and do as much coordination
and assistance as most wedding planners or
coordinators. We provide well beyond
the professional services you expect from
any Disc Jockey service. We've always
enjoyed helping people with special
occasions and we want to offer a strong
value for their dollar. We have raised
our prices over the years, but we are no
where near the most expensive.
