Questions

Everything you need to know about booking Hytension Events. Can't find what you're looking for? Send us a message.

The quickest way is to fill out our booking inquiry form with your event date and details. We'll get back to you within 24 hours to confirm availability and discuss your event. You can also call us directly at 817-301-6311.

We recommend booking as early as possible — especially for weddings and proms where dates fill up fast. Popular dates for 2026 are already filling up. As a general guide, book at least 6–12 months ahead for weddings, 3–6 months for corporate events, and 2–3 months for private parties.

It's simple. First, submit an inquiry with your event details. We'll confirm availability and send over a quote. Once you're happy, we'll send a contract and collect a deposit to secure your date. From there, we'll schedule a planning consultation to go over music preferences, timeline, and all the details.

Yes — we're happy to travel for the right event. We cover the greater DFW metroplex as our home territory. For events outside the area, a travel fee may apply depending on the distance. Contact us with your location and we'll work something out.

Unfortunately we're unable to hold dates without a signed contract and deposit, as we receive multiple inquiries for popular dates. We process bookings on a first-come, first-served basis, so we recommend securing your date as soon as you're ready.

Absolutely. We encourage it. Before your event we'll send you a music planning form where you can list must-play songs, do-not-play songs, and any special moments like a first dance or entrance track. We'll make sure every request is honoured.

We cover everything — Top 40, Hip-Hop, R&B, Pop, Rock, Country, Latin, Old School, House, Afrobeats, and more. We tailor the music entirely to your event and your crowd. If you have a specific theme or era in mind, just let us know.

Yes. MC services are available as part of our packages. We can handle introductions, announcements, toasts, game hosting, and crowd engagement throughout the night — keeping your event flowing smoothly from start to finish.

Performance time is agreed upon at booking. Most packages start at 4 hours, with the option to add extra hours. We also factor in setup and breakdown time, which is not counted against your performance hours.

Yes, within reason. We'll do our best to accommodate requests on the night while keeping the overall flow and energy of the event consistent. That said, we always prioritise your pre-planned must-play list first.

Yes. We bring professional-grade speakers, subwoofers, amplifiers, and mixer — everything needed for crystal-clear sound at any venue size. If your venue has an in-house system you'd prefer us to use, we can accommodate that too.

Yes — lighting packages are available as an add-on. We offer dance floor lighting, LED uplighting, pin spotting, and special effects like fog machines. Lighting can completely transform a venue and is a popular addition for weddings, proms, and corporate events.

We always carry full backup equipment to every event — a second laptop, spare cables, backup speakers, and more. In the rare event of a technical issue, we can switch to backup gear within minutes. Your event won't miss a beat.

A typical DJ setup requires approximately a 6×6 ft area and access to two standard power outlets (120V). For larger setups with full lighting rigs, we may need a bit more space. We'll discuss specific requirements with your venue in advance.

We typically arrive 1.5–2 hours before the event start time for setup and sound check. For larger setups with full lighting, we may need up to 3 hours. We'll coordinate directly with your venue to make sure everything is in place before guests arrive.

Pricing depends on the type of event, duration, location, and any add-ons like lighting or MC services. Every event is unique, so we provide custom quotes. Reach out via our booking form or call us and we'll put together a tailored quote for you.

We require a non-refundable deposit (typically 25–30% of the total) to secure your date. The remaining balance is due 14 days before your event. We accept bank transfer, credit/debit card, and other payment methods — details will be outlined in your contract.

If you need to cancel, please notify us as soon as possible. The deposit is non-refundable as it covers the date hold and planning time already invested. Cancellations made within 30 days of the event date may be subject to additional fees as outlined in your contract.

Yes. Hytension Events carries full public liability insurance. Many venues require proof of insurance before allowing external vendors on-site — we can provide a certificate of insurance upon request.

Yes — and we recommend it, especially for weddings. We offer a complimentary planning consultation (in person or via video call) where we go over your timeline, music preferences, special moments, and anything else that matters to you. We want to make sure we're fully aligned before the big day.
