Thank you for your inquiry into our services.  I am Eric Godfrey and I manage Starz Entertainment with my General Manager, John Green.

 The two most important factors in your event are these!

1. Your entire event will run the way you want it to with the music you want to hear!
2. All of your guests will totally enjoy their evening and tell you what a great time they had!

WE MAKE SURE YOU ARE SATISFIED, AND HERE IS HOW WE DO IT!

1. Event Planner – You pre-select the music selection, specialty songs, and any special announcements. This lets us know exactly how you want things done. Your interactive event planning guide is placed on our site when you make a reservation.  Be sure to put in a password as this is what allows you to access it.  If you miss the password we can add it for you and send it to you.  We give discounts for not making us play the chicken dance or the hokey pokey (just kidding - discounts for adding multiple items in choosing your package)
2. Personality of DJ – You pick the type of personality that best suits you, from outgoing to easy going, lots of talk to just play the music…. You’re the boss! ----No charge for several sarcasm laced, witty comments by one of our DJ's - The  comments are only funny if we don't tell you now.  No extra charge to keep our comments to ourselves.  Just let us know what you want!
3. Request Are Gladly Taken – We try to get requests up front, but obviously there will be requests at your event. We will put our music selection up against anyone.  Hits from 1930-today!  Only $5 each  extra to play the Hokey Pokey, Chicken Dance, Bunny Hop, Cupid Shuffle, Cha Ch Slide or Macarena.  Electric Slide and YMCA are only $10 each  (Just kidding again.....any song is free at your request any time)
4. Elevated Speaker System / Wireless Microphones – Our smaller speakers are on stands with volume set to your preference.  If you buy one of our larger packages the speakers will tower above you so there is no need for stands or you can buy our Bose Sound Systems which provide the ultimate in sound with almost no profile to ruin your pictures.   A wireless microphone is included at every event at no additional charge. (great for toasts)  Some of our speakers are taller than our DJ's.... so keep looking... he's back there somewhere!
5. “Get the Party Started” Activities – At your request, Starz DJ’s can use fun events to get your guests involved in the fun at your event. For personal reasons we have discontinued "Pin the tail on the DJ".  As soon as I can sit down again we'll come up with another game to replace it.
6. Full Lighting Show – Most venues offer no special lighting.  We offer a standard lighting package for almost all our DJ events (We do not include lighting with our budget wedding package as it was designed to help the couple that is trying to keep costs at an absolute minimum) at no additional cost. This allows the DJ to control the lighting for the entire event, creating the atmosphere you want for your special event. Most events include: At least 2 lighting fixtures with multi colored criss-crossing light patterns that move to the beat of the music.  Our larger packages for senior proms and large corporate events include lighting trusses filled with lighting effects and fog (if desired)   Occasionally, we like to turn up the music really loud... when the police arrive we find their lights are pretty cool as well.  Unfortunately this sometimes shortens our evening (OK, if you have not realized by now we're kidding again)
7. Full-time Professional Service – We ran our business part time for years, but now we have a full time staff and are always available to take care of your needs We have never missed a scheduled event in 25+ years.  We carry 9 full sets of equipment and 1 set of back up gear.  We have 10 other hosts available to cover events in the event of anyone getting ill or having problems.  We keep a set of equipment staged in a van every weekend ready to deliver to anyone who needs anything  (We often have 10-12 shows running on a Saturday Night) No jokes here, we're total professionals, you know?
8. We are a full service karaoke company.  We have the largest selections available in the Phoenix metro area on all of our sets.  Karaoke can be included in your event if you would like it (small additional fee).  We need to know ahead of time so we bring the extra gear.    You'll absolutely love hearing some of our wonderfully talented singing hosts.  If Eric is your host he promises not to sing if you tip him really well.
9. Free web site posting of pictures:  Provide us with digital copies or actual photo copies from your event and we will post them on our website and leave them for a year.  We will provide you with links you can send to anyone in the world to view the pictures. What a great way for you to share your events with friends and relatives who could not travel to be with you.  The key point to remember about pictures is that we promise that none of our DJ's will be better looking than the groom or guest of honor...  It's their event and we don't want to take away any of the attention.
10. While we almost never turn down a meal at an event (it's a long day and we do get hungry) we ask that you do not feed the DJ's any extra snacks.  They are all on high calorie diets and this would not help them.... some of our Karaoke hosts could use the extra food  ... please use your best judgment.

We look forward to helping you with your event.  Please let us know if we can provide any further information.

 Thank You,  

John &  Eric

Starz Entertainment is a Green Vendor

Starz Entertainment has closed our offices and installed a high tech phone system allowing all employees to telecommute saving the waste of commuting. We meet clients in Starbucks in an area that is less distance to our clients. We offer 24/7 online planning tools and management so that clients are not forced to print out endless worksheets and lists. We use LED lighting to reduce energy used. There are not many things a DJ can do to be green, but all of them that can be done, we are doing.
