April 2011 Update ! Wedding Season just a few weeks away !

Here we are in mid - April and the snow is almost gone, and soon Double Platinum will be busy with the 2011 wedding season. There are still a few select dates that DJ Pat is personally available for . Our talented staff have a few available open dates as well, so check our availability to see if we are open to help you celebrate your special day. January - March was very busy with inquiries ( as previously posted ) from all parts of the globe and all levels of services. We love talking to people to hear about their visions for one of the most important days of their lives. It is an art form to take a vision and turn it into reality. We love to discuss all the details ( large and small ) that will make up your wedding day. One of favorite things is to educate the potential client on what to look for in a quality service and what levels of service they can expect. Countless writings have been done on " Price, how much ? How much ? " It's one of our favorite topics as the customized services we offer is not reflective of all other vendors out there. I love telling people that we offer customized services do much more than just play music. We are your onsite coordinator who works in tandem with all your other vendors so you can relax and have fun. We are there to represent you ! We pride ourselves in pairing up the client with the right DJ who is best qualified for their specific needs. We turn work down , when we don't have the best fit and recommend our preferred friendly competitors. Most companies will try to book the client and then figure out the details. Not us , we want to make sure the client is well taken care of whether it be with us or an outside service. Several brides for the 2011 season have thanked us for locating a quality vendor for them outside of our organization. We are here to listen and offer any professional advice and guide you through your wedding day seamless from start to finish.

Gary & Mary 35th Anniversary Party 4/2/11

On April 2nd, I had the pleasure of sharing a joyous Anniversary Party with Gary & Mary Degon. They renewed their vows after 35 years and celebrated with friends and family at Governor's in Waterville. Many folks traveled to Waterville the day before during the April Fool's Day snowstorm. Inclement weather did not not stop everyone from making it to Maine to celebrate with them. Their Grand Entrance was to Elvis' " I Want you, I need you, I love you ." Anniversary Dances and a cake cutting followed as well as a special Rose bouquet presentation to their dear friend , Chris Banville , who introduced the couple back in the 70's ! A wonderful time was had by all, including a conga line that went from the ballroom , down the hallway to the front doors and back !

Record high Wedding bookings set in February 2011

Wow ! We had previously reported record online traffic and inquiries last month and our diligent efforts translated into the biggest month we've experienced for wedding bookings !
Now quantity is nice, but it always takes second place... quality is first and foremost.
While we did set a personal company record, we actually turned down a record amount of work also because most of us have been booked for weeks and months prior.
I say it all the time... book early.. book early to get the quality vendor you want.

I personally spoke to over 100 people in the month of February. That's right.. I personally spoke to them. You call the number.. you get me.. If you get voice mail.. I personally call you back.
You email Double Platinum.. I personally email you back.

I am always ready to discuss your wedding day visions with you. If we can't make your dreams reality, we'll guide you to the right vendor that can.We're ready to go above and beyond ..and most importantly... we listen

A few dates remain for the 2011 Season

The online traffic we are experiencing is setting record levels. We have been busy listening to potential client's visions of their wedding days and explaining our customized services. Some book us immediately, some keep price -shopping, but all are appreciative of the time we take to chat with them directly about their special wedding day.

We recently had one client tell us we were the first vendor they spoke to that actually seemed interested and excited in their wedding day.
We are always interested , and are genuinely excited to be a part of one of the most special days of your life. If you are getting married this year , or next year ( we are booking for 2012 currently ) contact us for a no obligation consultation. We'd love to chat with you !

Online traffic and wedding inquiries set record for January 2011

The brides are definately active out there this season trying to secure their wedding entertainment. Double Platinum Celebrations has experienced a tremendous amount of inquires in the past 30 days. We attribute that to word of mouth referrals, clients ; past and present who recommend our services, well placed advertising, vendor recommendations , and the relationships we have with industry professionals. We personally respond to each and every inquiry no later than 24 hours from when we receive it. 90% of the time we are able to respond same day if not within the hour when we receive it. We love chatting with folks about their wedding day, whether it's online or on the phone.
