If you are organising entertainment for a company event, an initial DJ and sax enquiry should lead to a clear conversation about the whole booking. The performance is central, but the timings, venue and technical arrangements determine how it is delivered.
DJ Knight Music supplied a DJ and sax duo for a company event in The Garden at One Marylebone. For a new event, we would ask for the date, venue, guest numbers and approximate performance window. It also helps to know whether you need music during a reception, after dinner or throughout a party, and whether you have planned speeches or other entertainment.
We then discuss the musical direction and practical setup. Does your venue have suitable DJ equipment and sound? Is production being supplied by another team? Would you like a DJ booth, lighting or additional musicians included in the proposal? The answers allow us to specify what is needed and give you a quote that reflects your event.
You can enquire before every detail is confirmed. Share what you know and we can identify the remaining decisions together.
What a useful proposal should clarify
A proposal should make clear who is performing, for how long, and what is being supplied alongside the performance. An organiser should be able to see whether a DJ booth, players, mixer, microphones, PA, lighting, technician, transport and setup are included or provided by others. The answer will vary by venue and package. This matters because a price for performers alone cannot be compared directly with a quote that includes a complete sound and lighting setup. If the company is supplying production, technical requirements should be shared early with that team.
Details that affect the plan
An event with a drinks reception in one area and dancing in another may need a different music arrangement from an event in a single room. Formalities can require a separate microphone and someone to manage cues. Restricted loading access may affect crew time. Venue curfews or sound limits influence the performance schedule. Tell us what you know even if some points remain provisional. We can identify the missing information and explain which decisions affect the quote. The purpose of the initial discussion is to give you clarity, not to expect a finished production document from your first enquiry.
From enquiry to event day
Once the scope is agreed, the next steps usually include confirming the running order, music preferences and production responsibilities. A final check with the venue or technical supplier ensures the performance setup fits the room. Our performance in The Garden at One Marylebone shows the duo in a company event setting. A new client can expect a tailored discussion because the requirements vary with the venue and programme. The more accurately we understand your plans, the more useful the proposal will be.
If your venue has a preferred production supplier, introduce them when you enquire. Sharing a technical contact can answer questions about equipment more quickly than passing messages through several people. It also makes it easier to confirm the actual scope before the booking is finalised, so everyone knows what will arrive on the day.
