Why
Choose Ralph Walker
Fifteen
years' experience
Performing
at weddings, receptions, parties, showers, baby dedications, corporate
functions, etc.
Superb
Value: Live Guitar and DJ
The
sound is classic and clear; the presentation understated; the mood
romantic.
You
get a nationally-recognized guitarist to play for your ceremony, wine/cheese
part of the reception, and dinner.
You
get a well-appointed, polite DJ who knows how to have fun.
You
save time, headaches, and money by hiring one performer.
You
can even get CD/tape wedding favors as part of the package.
I
Will Show Up at Your Event
Unlike
many DJs who work for agencies, my reputation rides on every event
at which I perform. I have a sort of Samurai sense of honor when it
comes to showing up. I have never missed an event. Should some emergency
preclude me from making it, I have backups on my payroll available.
All
your entertainment needs met
from
the beginning of the ceremony to your last dance. You save time and
money, while eliminating headaches. (I also have vocalists.)
High
Quality Sound Systems
Talk
is cheap. Many DJs claim to have "state-of-the-art" equipment. Upon
closer investigation, it becomes clear that most equate this term
with "we didn't buy our components at Radio Shack". The truth is only
studios have true state-of-the-art equipment, and that a few DJ's
have components that are industry standard.
My
DJ system is comprised of 100% industry standard components.
My
guitar system is a different matter. It is almost state-of-the-art
- essentially the same system used by Alex de Grassi and James Taylor.
My guitar actually has eight separate pick-ups. With the Bagend speakers,
I would put it up against anything.
What your guests will see
You
Get Old World Service
I
treat you with great care. During our 2-3 hour consultation, I will
listen to you, and use all my resources to create exactly the type
of reception you've dreamed of.
I
am committed to making your wedding as joyful and stress-free as possible.
This may sound contrived, but it's true.
I
believe weddings are sacred, and assume you view this as the biggest
day of your life. I will treat it as such.
Every
aspect - from the planning phase, to the equipment I use, to the performance
- is designed to give you first class service.
I
Bring Class And Elegance To Your Wedding
Everything
I do is about giving you honor and respect in front of your family
and friends. You will be proud to have me preside over your reception.
My sound system looks great; I dress well, and will never say anything
to embarrass you.
No
Surprises
The
entire planning process is designed to ensure that there are NO SURPRISES.
2
to 3 months before your wedding, you will receive a detailed packet
addressing issues such as
- How you want the bridal party introduced
-
All the different choices for your first dance and father-daughter
dance.
-
The types of music you prefer
-
Garter Toss and Bouquet. Do you want these, or would you prefer
an alternative?
After
working on it and mailing it back, we will meet for a 1 ½ to 2 hour
consultation. By the time you leave, every detail pertaining to your
reception will be covered. You will walk away with a playlist comprisedof
the songs you have chosen, sorted by category, with the times all
added up.
I
Really Enjoy My Work
This
is more than a mere job - it's about bringing joy and romance to you
on the biggest day of your life.
Extremely
Creative And Innovative
I
am skilled at finding ways to make your reception unique, without
compromising the boundaries of good taste.
My
job is to make this your special day. I will not overshadow the event.
Like a good waiter, I try to be present, yet inconspicuous.
As
an MC, I will direct the flow of the evening with taste and discretion.
When
the dancing starts, my philosophy is to talk as little as possible.
Song selection and timing - not words - will dictate the flow of the
party.
