3) What sets you apart from other entertainment and lighting companies?

IndoRaja Entertainment, Inc. was founded on the pillars of CLIENT SATISFACTION and CUSTOMER SERVICE. This, along with a passion for our work, superior technical skill, and experience, sets us apart from our competitors.

4) Do you have references?

We are glad to provide you with previous client references and testimonials upon your request.

5) Are you insured?  

We are fully insured to up to $2 Million, which enables us to work at the most high-end venues and locations.

6) Why should I go with IndoRaja for all of my event’s Entertainment and Lighting needs?

Because we are a “one-stop-shop” for entertainment and lighting, we can offer package discounts if you get multiple services from us. The more services you get from us, the more you save!

7) How much do you charge? Do you charge by the hour?

We do not charge an hourly rate. We charge by the event and services provided. We will put together a customized service package according to your event’s unique needs and budget. We’ve found that hourly rates and time constraints cause unnecessary stress on clients. We will perform at your event(s) for the contracted time frame, which will have been previously determined by you. If at the last minute, you decide to keep the party going longer, we will give you a 30-minute “grace period” before we start to charge for extra time.

8) Where are you located? Do you travel?

We are based out of Houston, TX, and are available for both nationwide and international bookings. Meetings are by appointment only.

9) What is LED Up lighting?

LED Uplighting is a very effective method to introduce color to your event. We offer various uplighting options to our clients to ensure that their wedding reception venue has that all important ‘WOW Factor’. Our LED Uplighting services can be used in all indoor and outdoor venues and you can choose the exact color(s) that you would like the room to appear during the event. These lights are used for several purposes such as lighting up your ballroom/décor, and to add ambience by enhancing the color of the walls, corners, columns, etc.

10) What’s so special about your LED Up lighting? Why should I get it from you?

We proudly use the “Chauvet Colorado3p” fixture for our up lighting. These LED up lighting fixtures will give your ballroom an intense wall color-wash while also adding a glow of color to your event space. We provide this premium LED up lighting service to our clients at similar pricing as our competitors charge for drastically inferior fixtures. Our fixtures are three to four times as bright as the fixtures our competitors’ use. We are confident that we provide the BEST VALUE on the market for up lighting to our clients!

11) What factors should I consider when shopping around for LED up lighting? 

• Service cost from vendor per fixture for up lighting at your event.
• Beware of dim-lighted photos from vendors. Other companies will show you photos of up lighting they provide when the ballroom’s in-house ceiling lights are completely off. This makes their up lighting look better in pictures, but is not a realistic depiction of how the up lighting will actually look at your event. Our fixtures are bright enough to give your room dazzling color even when your ballroom’s ceiling lights are not dimmed.

12) What is included in your DJ Service? 

• DJ Performance from an experienced and highly-skilled turntablist DJ who will keep the energy going with the music and, in conjunction with your MC(s), interact with your guests to ensure they have a great time during your event.
• Optional Announcement Service for Introductions of MC(s), family members, Bridal Party, and the Grand Entrance of the Bride and Groom.
• Entertainment/Itinerary Planning. We will work with you through our meetings and correspondence to help plan the itinerary/program order of your event, to make sure that everything runs smoothly. The music, entertainment, and lighting will be custom tailored to your event’s itinerary. We assist our clients in finding the perfect song for any part of your event.
• Two Wireless Handheld Microphones
• Professional DJ Booth available in your choice of either black or color-lit white.
• Premium Sound System appropriate for your ballroom and number of guests.
• Basic Dance Floor Lighting with upgrade options.

13) What type of music do you play?

You may give us as much, or as little creative control in regards to music for your event as you would like. We take requests! We have an extensive music library that consists of Bollywood, Bhangra, Hip Hop, Top 40, Remix, Reggae, Dancehall, Garba/Raas, Hindi Pop, House, Dance, Disco, Rock, Oldies, Alternative, Pop, 80s, Classical, Telugu, Pakistani, Tamil, Malayalam, Latin, R&B, Electro, and more.

14) What is Dhol?

Dhol is a double sided Indian drum that is used heavily in Indian music. The Dhol finds its origins in the North Indian state of Punjab, and is most heavily used in bhangra music.  

15) Should I hire a Dhol Player? How long will the Dhol Player(s) be at my event?

We recommend having a highly skilled Dhol Player, or “Dholi”, for any event because it adds an element of high energy that can't be duplicated by anything else. We will guarantee that the Dholi will be at your disposal from the beginning to the end of your event, including dhol performance during the dancing portion of the evening.

16) Should I hire a Professional Master of Ceremonies (MC) for my Wedding Reception?

Hiring an MC will take the stress off of the couple and families, letting them enjoy and not have to worry about coordinating anything at the Wedding Reception. The MC will play the role of mediator between you, the venue staff, the DJ, and other vendors at your Reception to make sure it goes as smoothly as possible. The MC will handle the announcement of the introductions of the Family members, Bridal Party, and Grand Entrance of the Bride and groom. The MC will also introduce all the other items on your event’s Itinerary, while interacting with your guests and keeping them entertained in between each item. The MC will increase the overall energy by intervening vocally in unique ways throughout your Wedding Reception to get your guests in the partying mood.

17) How will you be dressed at my event?

Unless otherwise instructed by you, the DJ, along with any IndoRaja staff present, will be dressed in business formal attire during your event. Our live performers and instrumentalists dress in traditional attire when performing. In addition, our equipment set-up and take-down crews will be in clearly marked IndoRaja Entertainment uniform.

18) Is IndoRaja Entertainment affiliated with Dhol Beat International (DBI)?

Yes, we (DJ Indo and Dholi Raja) are still fully affiliated with DBI, but as artists. IndoRaja Entertainment, Inc. allows us to completely focus our attention to our clients, strictly as a vendor for Entertainment and Lighting Production to private events.

19) What Types of Events do you service? Do you only perform at Weddings?

Although we perform at mostly weddings and wedding-related events, we are able to provide high-end Entertainment and Lighting Production for any event.

20) Do you require a deposit?

In order to reserve the date of your event for our services, we require a 50% deposit.
