About You

The live mixed dinner music complements the conversation and then it is time for the party. Call Class Act DJ Service now at 1-800-661-6044 to ensure that we have your date available.
Our wedding was perfect & was one of the best parties most of our guests have ever been to, and we know a big part of that was because of the great music. - Jennifer & Dustin

Who will be my DJ?
Rob Murray and Rob Lavery perform at the majority of weddings and corporate events.
What is included in your fees?
As you can imagine, this is one of the most frequently asked questions. It will come up at some point in every enquiry. Our service includes much more than some of our competitors. A wireless microphone for your MC is standard, however the house system may still be your best option. If you are planning on more than 100 guests, there is no charge for an upgraded sound system. Basic tasteful lighting is also included, subject to space limitations and the mood you want to create. Corporate and private party packages may vary.
Will I pay meal and lodging expenses for the DJ?
A meal is required on all events longer than 5 consecutive hours of performance time including background muisc. If a meal will not be available, your DJ will require a 40 minute break at the same time as your main course. Some venues have no alternate food services.
Because we are local vendors, it is often no more than a 20 to 30 minute drive home and accommodations are not required. Some remote locations may require some form of lodging depending on time of year and expected weather conditions. We have not had to exercise this to this date.
Can we choose our own music?
We certainly encourage your input into the evenings music selections. Some thought should be given to how danceable a song is and it's relative appeal to the majority of guests when choosing your music.
Do you supply a written contract?
All events are covered by a written contract for the protection of both parties. Our contracts are clear and concise in their wording.
When are payments due?
A deposit is required to guarantee the date and the balance is due between 10 days and 24 hours prior to the event depending on the form of payment. We accept personal and company checks, Visa, Mastercard, Interac e-Transfer, and of course cash.
Do you belong to any organizations?
We are members in good standing of the Canadian Disc Jockey Association and the Canadian Professional Disc Jockey Association. Many of our DJ's are involved in community organizations and public service clubs in Canmore.
