Point to Ponder
Disc Jockey rates vary based on experience level, emcee ability, service to be given, coordination, equipment needed, music knowledge, mixing ability and personality. Current rates for the DJ industry vary greatly, ranging from $300.00 to $3,500.00 with an average of $1,000.00 for a 4 hour booking. The best price is not always the best deal, especially when planning a wedding. As a matter of fact, surveys conclude that 98% of brides, in hindsight, would have spent more money on their entertainment and made it their #1 priority.
Full-service disc jockey will normally invest 12 to 30 hours to your special event but it may appear that you are only paying for "4-5 hours". Consultations, music purchasing, editing, preparation, set-up, tear-down, education and other event related projects add up to the overall success of your special event.
