Disc Jockey rates vary based on talent, experience, emcee ability, service, coordination, equipment needed, music knowledge,
and mixing ability. Other factors include date, type and location of your event. Fridays and Saturdays are the most popular
whereas Sundays and weekdays may receive a discount. Corporate events and wedding receptions command the most money, birthday
and retirement parties less. We will travel and depending on the distance, may charge more.
According to the American Disc Jockey Association, rates for the DJ industry vary greatly, ranging from $350.00 to $3,500.00
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.
Hope to hear from you!
