OF COURSE!! We love to hear your guests’ music tastes and favorite dance songs as well as their special musical memories. Nonetheless, we incorporate our years of professional experience and best judgement in everything we play. If there are specific songs you do not desire to hear at your reception, we will not play them. Based on your direction, we offer clean edits suitable for all ages or the unabridged “album versions” of your favorite songs.

YES, with very few exceptions, 717 Events dedicates your DJ/MC to your event for that day. Unless you are made aware in advance, 717 Events is at your disposal to provide overtime entertainment services. Overtime charges, per the service agreement contract, are due to be paid immediately upon the conclusion of your entertainment services.

NO, 717 Events does not charge for these portions of your special event. 717 Events services begin when you indicate that you want your DJ/MC set up and ready to play music and services end at the conclusion of the last musical number or announcement. Be careful when selecting entertainment charges you for setup/teardown time, as you don’t control the pace of their work and this could prove to be costly. 717 Events does charge a nominal fee for travel time (for fuel and time) beyond one hour of our home office (essentially anything beyond Cumberland, Dauphin, Perry, Adams, York, Lancaster, Lebanon, Snyder, Juniata, Northumberland, Schuylkill and Franklin Counties).

OF COURSE, 717 Events productions feature a combination of Compact Disc and digital, computer-controlled media in the highest fidelity. Our systems are capable of playing anything from 78 RPM vinyl to the newest and cleanest digital music files. Our music library is clean and clear and only from legal and professional sources. We have subscriptions to numerous music, radio release, and remix services to insure we have the newest music and the versions you want. Our hardware (hard drives, computers, CD players, microphones, cables, mixers, speakers, etc) is redundant and backed up to insure a trouble-free performance and your peace of mind in hiring 717 Events. 717 Events even has a spare/backup vehicle at our disposal in the event of mechanical failure or trouble. We believe we have covered the bases to insure dependability, versatility, and reliability.

MOST DEFINITELY! We have professional LCD projectors, portable screens, DVD players, and computers to be used for your special presentation at a nominal rental fee. DVD video, VHS/8mm/VHS-C/DV, and most digital formats are readily accommodated for projection of your special presentation and memories. 717 Events will work with you in advance of your big day to make sure everything runs as you plan and desire!

ABSOLUTELY! We are happy to provide the equipment and service you need for your wedding ceremony. We can even accommodate sites with limited or no electricity, so long as we can make access with a vehicle within 100 feet of your wedding site. 717 Events uses professional sound equipment, including lapel, headset, and handheld wireless gear and has the capability of professionally amplifying any musical instrument for live performance at your ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner hour, or reception. These systems are also capable of providing the reception sound in another room, inside, or outside, depending upon the layout of your wedding festivities.

Yes! 717 Events is comprised of professional musicians with a wide array of background and experience. We have worked in live sound environments and with live bands through the years. We ONLY use professional, road-grade equipment that can stand up to environmental extremes and the abuse that come from travel and use. Professional sound reinforcement gear is key to providing you with quality, intelligible audio that is not harsh and can be balanced to fill any space, indoors or out. Wireless microphone equipment and professional sound gear are expensive but we believe that only the top-of-the-line name brands and professional equipment are suitable for an event as important as yours.
