Fun Facts
Other Items to Note
Disc Jockey rates vary based on talent, experience, emcee ability, service, coordination, equipment needed, music knowledge,
mixing ability and personality.
Rates for the DJ industry vary greatly, ranging from $350.00 to over $5,000.00 with an average of $1,200.00 for a 4 hour
booking. The best price is not always the best deal, especially if you are planning a wedding.
As a matter of fact
Surveys conclude that nearly 100% of brides would have spent more money on their entertainment and made it their
#1 priority in hindsight.
A full-service disc jockey company will normally invest 12 to 30 hours to your special event but it may appear that
you are only paying for "4 hours". Consultations, music purchasing & editing, preparation, set-up and tear-down,
education and other business related endeavors add up to the overall success of your special occasion.

priority!
