A Good Way to Keep Your Wedding Reception out of Jeopardy – Hire a DJ Company that is Debt Free!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you’re hiring a disc jockey / DJ for your wedding reception, there is something important that you may want to keep in mind. In fact, this article is something that you may want to read and consider before signing a wedding DJ contract.

What is tragic about the current state of the economy is that it is also affecting and many times adversely impacting many DJs and Disc Jockey companies. Perhaps even more importantly, today’s economy may be distressing larger DJ entertainment companies more than it is the smaller DJ entertainment providers.  When operating any type of substantial business operation, it’s often all about obtaining credit or in other words, it’s all about the debt.  Typically, the smaller the company, the less debt!  Presently, many large companies and corporations are unable to obtain the credit financing they need to stay in business; hence, some companies are simply going bankrupt and in turn, many of these companies are going out of business.  Although no company can control the economy, a smaller company is more likely to be able to control its debt, and also more likely to be able to maintain an emergency fund.  Knowing this information simply adds to Horizon Entertainment’s motivation and continued commitment to never use debt to finance our business.

Wedding deal gone bad: Deejay company reneges on promise

Attention ALL Brides:  If you’re hiring a disc jockey for your reception, this is a story you need to read.

Kristi During met them at a Chesterfield wedding show, and says she booked them more than a year ago. Everything seemed great up until a week ago, she says.

After paying more than $500, she called to talk about what songs she wanted to hear at her wedding this Saturday.

She discovered the company’s website was unavailable, and its phone number no longer worked. She says her mother went to what she thought was its business address only to discover  a UPS store in a Maryland Heights strip mall instead.

Dan Sims runs Complete Music in Creve Coeur. His company jumped in to help, and he says During isn’t alone. Four brides have already called him since they can’t reach A Solid Gold Sound. He says the company has had a questionable track record for years.

“I believe this is the third time this company has done this. They come to town here for a period of time, [and] next thing you know they are gone and take people’s money,” he says.

According to the Missouri Secretary of State’s office, the company is based in Kentucky, but its business name registration with the state expired last year.
