Long story short, bride & groom thought that dear ole' mom (mom-in-law) had booked the dj. Found out today that she hadn't and were a tad frantic. Wedding is February 27 and about 1 1/2 hour up the road from me. They had already checked out my website and loved everything and just wanted to sign the contract. Spent about 5 minutes getting their info and emailed them the contract while their on the phone. They got it and will be putting full payment in the mail tomorrow!
 
I once got a call the day of the event ( not a wedding, but a BD party ). The wife of the guy dropped the ball. She called, and I didn't have anything scheduled. Sounds like a perfect marriage?

I thought so until she told me that she wanted to pay $200, which is funny because she told me where she lived and it is in a development of $500K - $1M homes. :sqerr:

Enjoy the "found" money!
 
That brought my total booked weddings to 12 (4 more possibilities still working), along with 6 private events, 3 uplighting gigs so far, along with whatever the schools do the rest of this year and the start of next --- 2010 will be a very busy year.

But, that's cool, because I needed to purchase some new toys! ;)

Sounds like you and I are truckin' along nearly neck and neck as far as bookings go...

It's nice when bookings like that just fall in your lap.

That doesn't include all the work that I've scheduled for my wedding jock. :sqwink:

But, it is nice because with my wife killing herself at her daycare and my 'full-time part-time job' up and down and me going back to school, I felt like I needed to bring some additional hard money into the household. It's still a fine balancing act to do that and ensure I spend quality time with the family.

Congrats Randy. Great story. Ya know, I hate guys that always one-up but........got a lead today, entered it to my database (including price), had the system send it out, came back to check email this evening, there's the deposit in paypal and the contract's already signed electronically. Such a stinker. :sqlaugh:
 
Cool beans Randy. Mind if I ask where the wedding is at (you know since you're venturing further up north and all)?
 
But it takes so much away having to explain the punch line!:sqlaugh:

Did I ever tell you my 99,999 brick joke?
