  • Standard dance floor lighting - Our standard dance floor lighting consists of our feature LED light that will provide music-chasing (dances with beat of music) lighting or other upbeat programs for your open dance floor. This light can also provide more subtle lighting for your more tender events (first dance, parent dances, etc.) or simply provide a white spotlight. Our dance floor lighting includes 2 additional music-chasing party lights that can enhance your dance floor later in the evening.
  • Digital Music Library - Our digital music library includes over 140,000 songs and is updated monthly with today's hits. If you elect to allow your guests to make requests, we shouldn't have any issue taking requests!

  • Back-up Equipment - Backup equipment includes 1 self-amplified speaker to backup Bose L1 system, 1 backup digital music drive, 1 backup laptop, 1 backup audio mixer, 1 backup wired microphone, and backup cabling.

Benefits of 2 person DJ crew:

  • Role of your MC - At the reception, your MC will be responsible for directing the flow of the evening and making sure your events are running close to your timeline plan. The MC will handle all the important announcements and keep your events flowing smoothly. The MC will also be available to discuss any important details with bride & groom, parents, bridal party, reception hall staff, and your other vendors (photographer, videographer, photo booth attendee, etc.).
  • Role of your Assistant DJ - Your assistant DJ is there to assist the MC and oversee the music and lighting. With the assitant DJ handling the responsibilities at the DJ station this essentially frees your MC to handle all of their responsibilities.
  • No Vacant DJ Station - the plan is for a member of the FineLine DJ team to always be present at the DJ station (even if one needs to use the restroom or locate the bride & groom in another room).

Benefits of Bose L1 Soundsystem:

  • Spatial Dispersion Technology - Unlike traditional speakers that require higher volume to fill your room, the Bose L1 features spatial dispersion technology. What does this mean for you and your guests? WIth the Bose L1 system your music will fill the space in a more efficient manner without having to resort to excessive volume. With traditional speaker systems, DJs will often blast the music to reach further away from the DJ station which can be uncomfortable for guests seated close to the DJ station.

Standard Add-Ons


  • Additional Hours of Music - $50 per additional requested half-hour (no discounts apply to this cost)
  • Additional Setup Time - $25 per additional half-hour. This will apply if adding on 2 additional options ( such as uplighting, monogram, music in separate room, video projection, etc.) and may apply if the logistics of your reception venue requires the DJ crew to arrive earlier than the standard 2 hour setup window. (no discounts apply to this cost)
  • Uplighting - $250 for one 6 pack kit (up to 6 lights), or $400 for two 6 pack kits (up to 12 lights). Our uplighting kit features premier wireless and battery operated uplights. What does this mean for you? This eliminates hazardous wiring and cabling all over your reception hall that other DJs will require for their uplights to work. It also means our uplights can go anywhere ( even putting one underneath a couple's sweetheart table ) and not be dependent upon being near outlets.
  • Need music in room seperate from reception ballroom - $100 includes setup of additional speaker system in cocktail hour room. Cocktail hour music will be pre-loaded onto digital library for this system.
  • Monogram - $100 includes Monogram projection system and 1 back-up Monogram projector for projecting your unique design on your dance floor or venue wall. Client is responsible for the separate purchase of their custom design. Upon booking with us, we will provide the necessary information you will need to order your monogram design (please budget $109 for your design + $9 shipping).
  • Projector / screen rental - $150 includes projector, screen, DVD player, power cabling, and audio cabling to run sound to your DJ. Want to run a slideshow photo montage? Scroll down to our MORE FUN IDEAS section below.
  • Ceremony sound system - contact us with information regarding your ceremony needs for a quote (price depends on equipment needs and additional man-hours required to take care of your event).

Important Notes


  • Planning Your Event - After contracting with FineLine Weddings you will receive your DJ planning form (along with planning forms for any other FineLine services such as photo, video, photobooth). This planning form is due back at our office no less than 2 weeks prior to your wedding, though we encourage you to submit it sooner. You will also receive access to our helpful planning page which will give you ideas for planning a successful reception as well as ideas on top requested songs for events and dancing. Once your planning form has been submitted, a member of the FineLine office staff will contact you to do a "first check" of your reception plans and requests. (You can also schedule an office visit with our office staff during regular business hours for help planning your event) Once this planning form is complete, it will be submitted to your lead MC and the FineLine office staff will begin compiling your music playlists. At this time your lead MC can contact you for a final review of the evening's plans (this is done at your request).
  • Bride & Groom Music Requests - Any obscure songs requested by the bride and groom will be the responsibility of the bride and groom. These songs MUST be submitted to FineLine by the planning form deadline before the wedding.
      • Setup of lights - Our standard DJ service includes our standard dance floor lighting. However, there are some venues that cannot accomodate dance floor lighting because of the size or layout of the venue. No discount or refund on lighting will be available in these situations as the lighting is simply included in the price and not an additional add-on.
      • Monogram - Our service includes the setup and projection of our standard wedding monogram design or your separately purchased custom design (we will provide you with information for ordering a custom design). The projector can be mounted onto our dance floor lighting stand, although we also bring a separate stand to use if neccesary to showcase your monogram in a specific spot. Please note that the actual size of the monogram depends on the distance between the projector and the projection surface (dance floor or wall). Most monograms are usually displayed on the dance floor or a wall (most often behind the head table).
      • Adding hours the night of reception - If couple wishes to extend the party and add on hours the night of the reception a fee of $50 per half hour MUST be given to the FineLine DJ staff on site before the hours can be extended. This payment MUST be in the form of cash or check only.
