Frequently Asked Questions
Booking and Scheduling
How do I book you for my event?
Click on the Schedule Your Event button on the top right of the page or go to the prices page. You'll be directed the calendar site where you can select the service that best matches your event. Include additional details in the notes, and we’ll follow up to confirm everything.
I need more than one type of service for my event—how do I book that?
Go to the calendar, select the most accurate service, and pick your date. In the additional notes section, include details on all the services you need (e.g., karaoke + DJ). Once we receive your request, we’ll reach out to confirm and fine-tune the setup.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance, especially for peak seasons. For last-minute bookings, reach out—we’ll do our best!
I submitted the contact form or scheduled an event—when should I expect a response?
We typically respond within 24 hours of receiving your request or scheduled event. If you haven’t heard from us, please check your spam folder—and don’t hesitate to follow up just in case!
What app do you use to schedule events?
We use Calendly! When you click “Schedule Your Event” on our website, you’ll be temporarily redirected to our Calendly calendar to view availability and choose the time that works best for you. Once you’re done, you’ll be brought right back to our site—easy and seamless!
Payment & Policies
When do I have to pay?
A $200 nonrefundable deposit is required to secure your event date. The remaining balance is due no later than 48 hours before the event.
How can I pay?
We accept:
Credit Card: Via quickbooks online payments (subject to an additional 3% charge)
Zelle: info@doublesixmusicparty.com
Venmo: @doublesixmusicparty
Paypal: info@doublesixmusicparty.com
Is there a cancellation policy?
Yes. You can cancel your event up to 48 hours before the scheduled start time. Please note that the $200 deposit is nonrefundable.
If something unavoidable comes up—like bad weather or an emergency—just let us know. We’ll do our best to reschedule your event without any additional fees, based on our availability.
Event Setup & Logistics
Do the hours I select in the calendar include setup and packing?
The time you select is for the actual duration of the service (e.g., 4 hours of DJ or karaoke). In addition to that time, we’ll need access to the venue at least 1 hour before the event to set up and 1 hour afterward to pack up.
For special events, is there additional preparation or cost?
Yes. Events like weddings, Quinceañeras/Sweet Sixteens, and corporate functions often require more planning. These are quoted separately based on complexity and coordination. You can still use the regular scheduling process to select a date and time—then we’ll contact you for more details, send a quote, and move forward once the deposit is paid.
Do you travel?
Yes! We’re based in Sammamish, WA, and cover pretty much the King County area, but we can travel. Travel fees may apply depending on your location.
Do you need Wi-Fi for any of the services?
Most of the time, no—we come prepared with a large offline library for both music and karaoke. However, for DJ services, if someone makes a last-minute request for a song that’s not in our library, we’ll need Wi-Fi to access Spotify or Tidal.
For karaoke, Wi-Fi helps us receive your song requests via QR code and build the queue automatically. If Wi-Fi isn’t available, no worries—you can write your song request on one of our post-its and hand it to the KJ (karaoke host).
Customization Options
Can I customize the playlist or song choices for the DJ Services?
Totally. We’ll work with you to build a vibe that fits your event. You can send us:
- Your must-play list
- Your do-not-play list
- Or even a playlist link from your favorite music app
We use Tidal and Spotify, so if there’s Wi-Fi access, we can fulfill almost any on-the-spot request. Plus, we have a hard drive with 20,000+ songs ready to go—so even if we're offline, your curated list will still play loud and clear.
Can I customize the karaoke playlist or the live band’s setlist?
You sure can—with a little planning. Custom requests for karaoke playlists and live band setlists are totally welcome, but they take more coordination behind the scenes.
Just send us your song requests ahead of time, and we’ll do our best to make it happen:
For karaoke, we’ll make sure your top picks are in the catalog.
For live band performances, we’ll review your list and let you know what we can cover, based on our current repertoire or if any special arrangements are needed.
The earlier you send your requests, the better we can prep and tailor the experience to your event.
Can we make announcements or speeches?
Absolutely! Let us know ahead of time, and we’ll have a mic ready when you need it.
Equipment & Technical
Do you provide microphones, speakers and lights?
Yes—we bring everything needed for a high-quality audio experience. You just provide the space and the party people.
What's the basic lighting mentioned in the packages?
Our basic lighting setup uses the Chauvet GigBAR Move. It’s an all-in-one lighting system that includes moving lights, strobes, washes, and laser effects—all synced together for a vibrant and dynamic light show. It’s perfect for creating a fun and energetic atmosphere at your event without needing a complicated setup.
We also include a fog machine when the venue allows it and you’d like it. The fog enhances the lighting by making the beams and effects more visible, adding an extra layer of excitement to the experience.
How long do you perform?
Karaoke and DJ services have a minimum booking of 4 hours, but we can stay longer if requested. Additional time is charged per hour, and we’re happy to customize the schedule based on your event needs.
Live band performances typically include two 45-minute sets or one continuous 90-minute set. If you’re looking for something different, let us know—we can work with you on timing and flow.
How many mics are available for karaoke?
We provide 4 wireless microphones for karaoke singers. We also bring a couple of wired mics as backups, just in case.
How many TVs/screens are available for karaoke?
We bring 1 screen for karaoke lyrics, set in front of the singers. If your venue has more TVs/screens and you want the lyrics displayed there too, we can wirelessly connect to one additional screen. We’ll confirm these details after you schedule.
Referral & Loyalty Programs
How does the Referral Program works?
When you refer a friend to Double Six Music party, you both win!
Your friends get 10% off their event when they book with us, and you get 15% off your next DJ or Karaoke booking as a thank-you.
There's no limit-refer as many friends as you'd like and keep the good vibes (and the discounts) coming!
How does the Loyalty Program works?
Every time you book with Double Six Music Party, you're earning rewards!
Once you've booked 2 events, your 3rd event is 50% off-whether it's DJ or Karaoke!
It's our way of saying thank you for partying with us again and again.
No need to sign up-your loyalty is tracked automatically!
Can I combine the Referral and Loyalty Programs?
Yes, you can!
When you refer friends and book your own events, you are earning rewards both ways.
So while you're getting 15% off for referrals, you're also working toward that 50% off your 3rd event through our Loyalty Program.
It all adds up-more parties, more perks!
Miscellaneous
During karaoke, we took pictures and saw them on the screen—how can we get those after the event?
Our karaoke app lets guests take fun photos during the event, which are then displayed live on the screen. After the event, we collect all the uploaded pictures and share them with you via a Google Drive link. You’ll get the link by email within a couple of days, and you’re welcome to download and share the photos. Just a heads-up—we only keep them available for 30 days.
