What Makes Us Different?
A good wedding DJ is a special mixture of an uptempo interactive personality, coupled with maturity, technical expertise, experience, and a love for people and music. Unfortunately, not everyone has this gift. If they did, shopping for a wedding DJ would be a whole lot easier. It takes years to cultivate this talent.

As a Professional Wedding Entertainer who has worked with thousands of brides and grooms, let me outline the major benefits of choosing The Sound of the Sierras as your wedding DJ...

We're Experienced! We do not send amateurs to your big day! Chris is a trained wedding professional. He knows how to add to the excitement, without stealing the limelight. You may rest assured knowing that your event will be coordinated with class, style and precision. He arrives with the proper attire, an enthusiastic attitude, an extensive knowledge of music, and a comprehensive skill in event coordination that is second to none! He will personally act as your Master of Ceremonies, coordinating all details including introductions, cake cutting, bridal dances, bouquet & garter toss, etc. The right DJ can make all the difference!

Personal Service! You receive pampered treatment from the first phone call to your last dance. We take care of you... before your wedding, during your wedding, even after your wedding! Your complete satisfaction is that important to us! We get to know you personally. And come your wedding day, you’ll probably know us more as a helpful friend, than as the "hired help"!

We’re Reputable! We’ve been making wedding dreams come true for thousands of couples since 1984. We have excellent relationships with, and are highly recommended by, the top wedding coordinators, banquet managers, photographers, caterers, and videographers in the area because we successfully work together to create the perfect team on your wedding day. Ask your banquet manager or professional wedding photographer how important it is to find a DJ that wants to work with them! The Sound of the Sierras is without question one of the most respected entertainment companies in the Reno, Lake Tahoe & Carson Valley area.

Professional! We dress the part! A suit or black tuxedo is the standard attire for us... unless you request otherwise.

We're On Time! Seems silly to even hear, doesn't it! Amazingly, it's not as common to have the DJ on time as you might think. We're always on time! In fact, we'll be completely set up and coordinating details with the banquet staff before you arrive.

We Use Quality Professional Equipment! We use only the very best digital audio & computer-controlled lighting equipment available today, for both superb sound quality and physical presentation. Our equipment has a very attractive appearance! We take the time to make sure it looks GREAT for you!

We Carry Backup Equipment On Site! Extra music, extra amplifiers, extra speakers, extra everything! Would you risk your special day with less just to save a few bucks? In the unlikely event of equipment failure, we can be back up and running as long as it takes to run around in blind panic…uh, I mean calmly switch to our backup system! Should be three to ten minutes! It probably won't happen... BUT IT COULD! Imagine hiring a DJ that wasn't prepared. Not only is there no music, but the party is virtually ruined! The difference in hiring the right DJ is a small investment towards the succesful outcome of your reception!

We're Licensed! Isn’t it nice to know we hold the required licenses from the state and other institutions to perform your event. We take our business (and your affair) seriously!

We Work For You! We work with a time-proven professional wedding planner and all introductions & special announcements are smoothly announced. And we’ll even be calling you just before the big day to let you know that we have everything ready, confirming we'll be there and to make sure there haven't been any last minute changes.

We Have The Greatest Music Selection Available! We've been compiling and fine-tuning our extensive music library for years. And we update it weekly! We customize the music to fit YOUR tastes. We bring your favorites and encourage your requests. And we don't suffer from "attitude or ego problems!" We are also sensitive to what is (and is not) tolerable regarding volume.

We're Classy! We don't try to "force" you to do silly dances on your wedding day unless YOU want them! Having said that, however, we are imaginative and creative enough to make your party extra special. Yes we do clever things, but we don't "humiliate" you or your guests! You are the star… it's your show… it’s your spotlight! We simply add that extra little sprinkling of excitement to make the show happen!

We're Established! We are Members of the Nevada Disc Jockey Association (N.D.J.A.) and the local Chambers of Commerce. Besides all the fun, we like to be part of our community!

If ever a day of your life deserves the finest entertainment, this is it! You’ll be happy to know you’re trusting the most important day of your life to entertainment specialists who perform at weddings as a profession, not just as a weekend hobby. Anyone can play music... we entertain!

"For the memories they'll always remember... select the entertainment they'll never forget!"™
