What kind of music do you play?
We play whatever you and your guests want to hear.
All of our crews carry an enormous and up to date music collection containing
thousands of hits songs on CD's. We take requests, and read the crowd and
find the music that they best enjoy.
How far in advance should I book?
I would recommend that you call for an appointment as
soon as you have booked your date. Some dates are booked up 2 years
in advance, and some dates aren't booked until a month before. All Dates
are first come, first served, with a retainer required to hold a date.
What if I can't meet with you, can I book by phone or fax?
You may call us anytime and leave a message with our
answering service. I will call you back as soon as possible and can fax
you a contract and all the necessary paperwork.

is due at the start of the event.
Who will be my DJ?
Centre Stage Entertainment is owned by me, Alex
Lopetrone. I employ a staff of 5-6 DJ's and Entertainers who are
professionally trained for all types of events. All of my staff was
hired based on their talent and professionalism. They all have good
reputations of their own, and I have complete confidence in their service.
The reputation of my company is far too important to me to settle for anything
less.

Are our prices fair?
Most people say that the most important parts of a
great party are the music and the food. They usually forget the meal
before they forget the music! Yet, at a typical wedding of 150 guests, the
price per meal is often $35 - $70. My DJ services start at about 5$
per person.
