Our approach is classy, professional, and energized - but never over the top.  Our style is defined by:

Tasteful Interaction: We know how to read the room and inspire your guests to dance when the moment is right - always in a fun, respectful way.

-

Artistic Mixing: We craft seamless, high-energy transitions between songs to keep the dance floor alive. Our DJs mix live, responding to the crowd’s vibe in real time  - never just pressing play randomly on a playlist.

-

“No-Cheese” Professionalism: We deliver announcements with class and clarity. You won’t hear us talking over songs or trying to be the center of attention. Your event is the show - we provide the perfect entertainment with soundtrack.

-

You are the super-star of your event. No DJ self-hype, no service banners, and no MC or DJ stealing your spotlight. We interact to motivate your guests only when needed, and our mic presence is smooth, warm, and never cheesy.

-

It’s all about creating the perfect balance between party and poise. We make sure the celebrants remain the center of attention while the guests have an unforgettable time!

Depending on the occasion, an MC can play a vital role in keeping your event running smoothly. Please note that our MC service is only available at an additional fees to the DJ service. You may or may not need an MC. How we handle this depends on the type and scale of your event:

-

For Weddings, Corporate Parties or events that require frequent floor coordination or guest engagement, we strongly recommend a dedicated MC. This ensures a smooth flow of activities and keeps everything on schedule. For such events, Maestro beats typically provide a team of two entertainment professionals - an experienced, charismatic MC to manage announcements, coordinate timelines, engage guests, and oversee stage or floor activities, while the event DJ focuses on delivering flawless music, seamless mixes, and professional audio/PA system management.

-

Other MC Options:

1. If you’re on a tight budget and have a friend, coworker, or family member who can serve as an MC, that can work perfectly.

2. Alternatively, you can hire a third-party MC service of your choice.

We’re happy to collaborate with anyone to ensure your event runs smoothly and your entertainment remains top-notch.

-

Smaller Parties:
For more intimate events with minimal formalities, the DJ can seamlessly handle both roles - ensuring that music, announcements, and the overall vibe flow naturally and effortlessly.

+ Most Importantly Your Playlist (if any):

Most importantly, this is your event. We work closely with you to build a custom playlist that reflects your taste and vision. If there’s a specific song you love that we don’t already have, we’ll gladly acquire it for you at no extra cost.

-

You can be as hands-on as you like - from sharing a detailed “must-play” list to providing a “do-not-play” list. Our DJs are also skilled at reading the room and can take guest requests (with your permission, of course) if they fit the vibe.

-

Please note: We typically use radio-friendly, “clean” versions of songs to ensure everyone enjoys the music and has an amazing time.

We can provide an overview of our typical pricing structure to give you an estimated range; however, a precise quote requires understanding the unique details of your event.

-

Our final pricing is based on clear, measurable factors such as the *date  *season  *event *duration  *number of guests  *venue size and *specific setup requirements. This ensures consistency and fairness for all our clients - we do not engage in subjective pricing based on factors like perceived budget, fame, or venue prestige.

-

For example, we offer two general package types for 4 - 6 hours of service.:

1. Plug-n-Play Setup
Designed for venues that already have a professional, full in-house sound system - or into your live band setup that can accommodate our DJ’s decks and console.
*Typical range: $750 - $1,100 

-

2. Full Equipment Setup
For events requiring us to provide the complete sound  and PA system, including speakers, subwoofers, and microphones.
*Prices start at $1,200 for smaller gatherings and can range up to $3,500 or more for larger events with extensive production requirements.

-

To ensure we’re fully prepared and can deliver the best possible experience, we encourage you to share all event details upfront - including your estimated budget.

-

While we can adapt to various situations, we urge clients not to deliberately omit important details to get a lower quote, as this may affect our ability to plan effectively and maintain our service quality.

We look forward to learning more about your event so we can prepare a reasonable, transparent quote -  no hidden fees and no surprises.

Our pricing is straightforward and all-inclusive - no hidden fees or surprises. Your flat-rate package covers:

• The complete performance time you’ve reserved.

• Full event duration, including setup and breakdown time.

• Premium, professional-grade sound equipment, featuring high-quality speakers, subwoofers, and wireless microphones tailored to your event’s size and venue capacity.

• Preparation and pre-event planning, including coordination of music selections, event flow, timeline details, and other essentials.

• Full DJ liability insurance for your peace of mind.

• All applicable taxes included in the quoted rate.

• No travel fees within a 75-mile radius of NYC - we normally cover most of New Jersey, Connecticut, Long Island, & downstate counties New York. However, transportation fees may for events beyond 80 miles from NYC, billed at $1.25 per mile (round trip).

NOTE: If we refer you to one of our partner DJs or affiliated services outside our tri-state operating area, please note that their individual pricing and policies may apply.

Absolutely! You’ll receive a professional, easy-to-understand formal contract outlining all terms - no guesswork, no vague promises. We encourage you to review it thoroughly and feel 100% confident before making any payment. We’ll even hold your date for 10 days while you decide, before finalizing the booking.

-

Once you’re ready, a 50% retainer deposit will secure your booking, with the remaining balance due on the day of the event. We accept credit cards, Debit cards, ACH transfers, PayPal, and Zelle, all covered under our clearly stated refund policy.

Invoices and receipts will be issued accordingly.

At Maestro Beats, we pride ourselves on being one of the few DJ services in the tri-state area with a generous and empathetic deposit refund policy. We understand that plans can change unexpectedly, and we handle all cancellations with fairness, transparency, and understanding as much as we can.

-

Full Refund:
The deposit is fully refundable if written cancellation is received no less than 45 days before the wedding date or 30 days before other events.

-

Credit Option:
If cancellation occurs within 45 days of the wedding or 30 days for other events, a full credit equal to the deposit amount will be applied toward a future booking, subject to the DJ’s availability.
This credit is valid for one (1) year from the original event date and can also be transferred to a friend, relative, or associate to use for their event within the same one-year period - provided a Maestro Beats DJ is available on their chosen date.

-

Late Cancellation: Made less than stipulated days above (less than 14 days) before the event will result in forfeiture of the deposit.

Or at Maestro Beats’ discretion, partial credit may be extended if the date can be successfully rebooked by another client.

-

Force Majeure:
In the event of unforeseen circumstances beyond either party’s control - such as severe weather, natural disasters, government restrictions, or venue closures - Maestro Beats will make every effort to reschedule the event at no additional cost, based on mutual availability.
