Weddings

When you hire The Groove Merchant you are getting ME, Vince Turnbull the person with over 20 years of experience in the music business. It is not like hiring a DJ service that has multiple units and DJs that are merely "Hired Hands" doing your show; you are getting the owner himself, a person with full and intricate knowledge of the equipment and system and can make any decision right on the spot!

Some wedding receptions the DJ company has a huge banner across the front of their system (usually their stuff set on a table) with huge letters in essence advertising their services.

The day is about you not the DJ company soliciting for business. This day is the most important day of your life. Why would you trust it to some flunky that really has no true stake in the show beyond what he gets paid?
Ok, So What do I Get If  I Hire You?

I work with you to provide a detailed music plan and help you choose the music for your Wedding Reception, Dance or even the Ceremony itself. Having a plan keeps things moving smoothly so your guests will remember the great time they had.

I will arrive ahead of when I am supposed to be there to insure that my equipment is in place and functioning as it should long before ANY guests arrive. I will conduct myself professionally and even MC the reception for you if you would like.

I will not advertize (except for Business cards to hand out on request). This is Your Day!

I will Provide a clean and Professional Show, Present the Bride and Groom etc.

I will coordinate with the Venue to relieve you of the problems of being a go-between.

I will take pictures during the dance and and provide you with a copy on a cd and/or post them on Your Wedding Web Page
