Some KC DJ Companies Cost More Than Others? Why?

“Why is this DJ company $1000 and that one is $500. I just need a DJ. What’s the difference?” We understand that weddings and other events can be crazy expensive. But if that expense is a direct correlation to the amount of fun your guests will have then isn’t the extra money worth it? I mean, not to point out the obvious, but this is the most expensive party you’ll ever plan right?. That means it has to be great! There are many reasons that companies price points differ. In this video we highlight one main reason that no one ever considers.

Lighting for Any Occasion

At Elite Sounds, we pride ourselves on our state of the art lighting that can suit a number of different occasions.

  • Uplighting can add a beautiful ambiance to a venue for a wedding, project company colors at a corporate party or fade between colors for an energetic prom.
  • Pin Spots can highlight your table centerpieces, a presentation, dessert table, head table or any stationary item that you don't want in the dark once the dance floor opens.
  • Intelligent Lighting (or moving head lights) move around the room to create an exciting dance experience. They can also be used before the dance floor opens to spotlight introductions, a speaker or cake table. Or projected with light moving gobos on the wall for a modern cocktail hour.
  • Our Orbs have the ability to stay on one static color, fade between colors or snap to different colors. They are waterproof and therefore make for very fashionable additions to pool parties. They also could be incorporated throughout a modern event as decorations, centerpieces or hung from the ceiling by a string.
  • Custom Monograms put a unique signature on your event. You could do initials for behind the head table of a wedding, a company logo for a corporate retreat or a mascot for homecoming. The customization makes the options endless.

Check out some of the ways we have used our lighting below and let us know if you would like to recreate something or do something new for your event! Contact us today.

6 Reasons to Throw a Party for Your Business

You’ve thought about bonuses and cheap gifts to reward your employees but do they really want a personalized company pen…? Why not throw a party? Create memories, pull down barriers and just cut loose. Need more reasons? Ok fine. Here’s a few.

Comradery
Ask anyone what the most important aspect of anything is and most likely that answer is communication. Communication is the key to success. If the only communication that your staff has together is business related you are limiting their potential. Name a better ice-breaker than dancing. It brings us all together.

Wild Sides
Bring out the goofy sides of your employees with a photo booth. You will see sides of people that you didn’t know they had. Speak to that and create memories. Your guests will receive a photo strip of their own and you will get a digital file of the lot. Pick a few and throw them on social media. Put out that fun company image.

Celebrate Success
What says the company is in good financial standing? Gold Porsches for everyone, I guess. But for us reasonable people, a company party probably makes more sense. Your staff has done a great job. Reward them. If we can’t stop and celebrate what we’ve done, what is it all for?

The Recap
When you’re back at the grind on Monday your staff will still be coming down from their high. That photo booth picture of shy Sharon is now a conversation piece. Someone took a video of Carl from accounting breakdancing. What is that I smell in the air? Is that bonding? It is.... It is.

Awards
Don’t be the stepdad that refuses to say he’s proud of his stepson. Publicly acknowledge those that have gone above and beyond to make your company better. You may be surprised by how the newbies start to emulate the people you reward. Win-win? Yep.

Fully Customizable
We can come in at whatever level you’re thinking. From a parking lot bbq to a black tie cocktail mixer to an informational conference. Make it reflect your company’s style. Our additional services provide a variety of options to make the night fit your group.


If that swayed you, contact us to talk through some options that will make the most sense for your upcoming event . Everyone will have such a good time that you will be booking next year’s party while we are packing up our equipment. We have a team of DJ’s with experience ranging from 5-20 years. We can make the vision of your party a reality.
