Restaurants:
Single Bookings $75.00/set for first and second 10-minute set. $55.00 each additional set.
Affectionately called a "hip-and-run", these are great for a surprise at a birthday party, restaurant, or any other place where something quick and fun is desired. The dancer gets the guest of honor up on their feet, photos taken, and then it's back to the festivities!
Standard Set for Parties and Weddings: $125.00/set and up
A Standard set lasts about 15 minutes. Depending on the desires of the client, this program includes a lively entrance, a slow and beautiful veil piece, exciting drum solo, and an upbeat fun song to get the guests up and moving. Audience participation is encouraged! A great way to get the party started! Perfect for most private parties,socials, and other events.
For Weddings - Program includes a standard set during the dinner or reception . Of course, you want your special day to be perfect! Asra will work with you to make sure your evening is one your guests will remember!
Special requests for music, dance styles, and costuming are possible . The dancer's costume can be matched to your wedding colours if desired. The dancer may also get the bride or other guests of honor up to dance as well as the audience members.
A bellydancer is a great way to liven up the evening and get your guests up on the dance floor!
A few things are needed:
- A clean and dry dance surface.
- A private area or dressing room (restroom is fine) to change in before and after performing.
- A secure place to keep my belongings while performing.
- Music is individually selected for each event and burned to CD. A sound system that will play burned CDs is required, the louder the better!
- At least one week's notice is preferred.
Regarding Payment:
- A $50 deposit for parties. If you have paid the deposit and need to cancel with reasonable notice (at least a week) I will refund a portion of it. Otherwise the deposit non-refundable. If I have to cancel due to some extreme illness or emergency, I would of course refund your deposit in full.
- Payment is due in full upon arrival at venue
Some questions I will ask about your event:
- What kind of event is it?
- Who will the audience be and how many people do you expect?
- What is the date, time, and location of the performance?
- A name and contact number for the host or whoever is booking me.
- Where is the event taking place? Is it indoors or outdoors?
- How big is the dance space? The bigger the better!!
- Do you want the bellydancer to be a surprise? This requires a touch more planning to make sure I can arrive discreetly and music is in place, but certainly can be done.
- Any special requests regarding music, type of dance etc? I can suggest something that will work with the mood and type of your event.
- Is there a guest(s) of honor? Would you like the dancer to invite them or other audience members up to dance?
- Once again, no bachelor parties or all-male events. Sorry, guys.
