Absolutely! It’s your day, not ours. Some couples leave it totally up to us, and others pick every song. Most fall somewhere in the middle. This is where we combine our experience with guest requests to play music that everyone will enjoy.

Studio Veil offers a sound system add-on for the ceremony if needed. We arrive 60-90 minutes before the ceremony to load in and set up. Two handheld wireless microphones are available for the officiant, wedding couple, musicians, and readers to use. Musicians may also plug into our soundboard, but they must provide their own cables to go from the instrument to the soundboard. We can also play requested music. Please note that there will be a little downtime between the ceremony and reception as we work to move the equipment.

We typically arrive 1 hour before guest arrival to load in and set up. Music begins playing when 1st guests arrive. At the end of the night, it’ll take approximately 45 minutes to tear down and load out.

Well, we’re not the kind of DJs that don’t know when to shut up. We consider ourselves as more facilitators than entertainers. Your guests are there to have a good time- not to listen to us talk all night. We’ll facilitate all the events you want (grand march, 1st dances, bouquet/garter tosses, cake cutting) and none of the ones you don’t. Unless there’s an announcement that needs to be made or one of the above events taking place, we let good music decisions do the talking for us. In our experience, if guests don’t want to dance, nothing we do or say will change that. And if they DO want to dance, they will love the music choices we make!

We use LED lighting which takes very little energy and puts out very little heat. You won’t burn up from the hot lights as you might from traditional stage lighting. Our lights change colors with the music to create a nice ambiance, but we do not use club or party lighting such as strobes, lasers, and fog machines.

Studio Veil aims to make your wedding planning simpler. There are no hidden fees or extras you will be charged for later (unless you add services to your contract). The only things to keep in mind beyond the stated prices are sales tax for uncle Sam and gratuity should you decide to tip your vendors.

As with any service industry, tipping wedding vendors is appreciated, but not required. All day long, they will be with you, helping to create life-long memories. One industry article explained it this way: “If you tip a server for bringing you a meal, why wouldn’t you tip the vendors bringing you the best day of your life?” Some people ask what a normal tip is. There’s no right or wrong answer. Some websites state specific amounts; others, percentages. The point isn’t the amount but rather the relationship between you and your photographer/videographer/DJ/photo booth attendant. We hope to provide the kind of quality service that compels you to show gratitude in that way at the end of the day.
