On June 03, 2010, Toro Party DJs had the privilege of partying with Bronx Leadership Academy 1 and 2 for yet another year.  This years prom was held at the beautiful Villa Barone in the Bronx, NYC.  We had two sets of prom king and queen, a prince and a princess, and a Mr. and Mrs. BLA!  Some of the winners even added a walk-down dance when coming to be crowned.  All the winners danced together and were then joined by all of their comrades.  The Toro Party Countdown went well with hits like the Macarena for 1996 and Kriss Kross’s – Jump, Jump for 1992.  Check out the video for yourself!

We can’t wait to party with them next year, and if you want to party with us…Make sure you hit us up at 646-769-092 or visit www.toropartydjs.com for more information.

With NYC’s Prom season approaching us rapidly, we thought it would be a nice gesture to give everyone involved with the once in a lifetime night a guide to some good fun.

To Students

1. Do not drink alcohol before or after your prom.  If you drink before your prom and you are visibly intoxicated, you might be refused entry in to your prom, a pretty dumb reason to miss out on such a momentous occasion.  Additionally, alcohol impairs judgment and can lead to some short term memory loss! Don’t you want to remember how much fun you had?

2. There is no such thing as being “Fashionably Late.”  You should plan on arriving to your prom within the first hour of it starting.  By coming too late, no one will see your wonderful limo, people will be dancing and having a good time as you enter (not noticing you), and you could miss out on things such as prom king and queen.

3. Make sure you have a small checklist before you leave your house.  Your checklist should include things like camera, cell phone, money, prom and after prom tickets and other necessities.  Girls should team up to have one small bag of cosmetics and “girly stuff” so that everyone is lugging it around.  Guys should do the same with things like hair gel, comb or brush, and cologne, and deodorant.  (YES, DEODORANT: You will get a swift NO if you ask a girl to dance smelling like you’ve just played a hard game of basketball.  Sorry guys, the ladies are usually very good at keeping themselves smelling awesome.)

4.  Lastly, have a plan mapped out for the entire night.  Know what time you are leaving or meeting up with your limousine.  Know what time prom ends and what your plans are after.  It’s not a good idea to “wing it” the night of prom.  If you are going to an after prom party, make sure you know where it is at and what time the doors close so that you don’t lose out on any money.

5. Schedule hair, make-up, manicure and pedicure appointments in advance.  By having appointments you will save yourself a bunch of time.

To Parents

1. Make sure you have the telephone numbers of all kids and parents that are traveling with your son or daughters prom group.  You should definitely also have the limousine driver’s cellular phone number, just in case you need to check on their location.

2. Don’t be too strict on your child, but also don’t let them run wild through the city.  Ask your child to honestly tell you what time they expect to be back at home, and then develop a plan for them to check in with you periodically.  Maybe a phone call or text every hour or so.

3. Know exactly what your child plans on doing before and after prom.

3. Make sure your hire a professional limousine service to drive to and from prom.  Some counties have road blocks making sure that cars & limousines have the proper licenses.  Professional limousine services will also make sure that students aren’t drinking on their watch and can either call a parent or school official.

To Staff

1. Try to set a time in which the doors to enter prom will be open.  Although it is uncommon, we have once witnessed a vast majority of students showing up to prom with about two hours left in the night.  We guess they were all trying to play the fashionably late card.

2.  Deny entry for a student who is visibly intoxicated.  Either tell them they have 15 minutes to shape up or send them home.  If the students know this rule is going to be enforced, they will be less likely to try and consume any alcoholic beverages before prom.

3.  If budget allows, try and sponsor your own after-prom activities or maybe even a senior breakfast to account for your students.

4. If possible assign zones to your chaperones, and have one person roaming the facilities to make sure no one has wondered off.

We hope that these tips have somewhat helped you and that you have an awesome prom night.  Remember that it is a once in a lifetime moment that you will look back on the rest of your lives.

Hello to the CLASS of 2010 [you party animals], quick announcement to those schools that are going to get crazy with Toro Party DJs this year.

On March 20, 2010, DeWitt Clinton H.S. held there annual “Day of Unity” a Step, Dance and Cheerleading competition with over 30 schools from the NYC Tri-State area. The competition hosted catergories in elementary, middle school and high school divisions.

The competition was really close and came down to teams only making minor mistakes on their routines. We congratulate all the winners and teams who competed for doing so well. We hope you don’t mind if we steal some of your moves.

On February 12, 2010 (Baseball Party) and March 05, 2010 (Step, Dance, Cheer Party) we had the privilege to provide entertainment at DeWitt Clinton HS (Bronx, NYC) AGAIN!!!! Toro Party DJs is entering its 8th year of providing Clinton parties and other functions with great entertainment.

The two parties mentioned were held by separate organizations, but both made sure to use Toro Party DJs to ensure a great turn-out and party. We would love the chance to provide our great services to other schools who want to build a great party that the students want to attend. Our goal is to create great attendance at your school events on a repeat basis.

We have great DJs and packages available for your next event. Call us today and we will talk about all the possibilities.

Maxcine and her family are close friends to the Toro Party DJs family, so we wanted to make sure she had a great time.  The sweet 16 was held at the Freedman Home, a landmark location, in the Bronx, NYC.  We brought out our x-treme light show, and our video screen upgrade w/ music videos, montage, and splash screen. This is the perfect package for your sweet 16.

We had a great time and thank Marco Feliciano for having us at his little sisters once in a lifetime event.
