$650.  This is an off-season price.  It includes music from 4:30 to 11:00 and lights.

I think that mine was about the same as lebast.  We had our DJ for 5 hours.  I think that was cheap though when I was looking.  It seems like most of them were closer to $800-900, and I booked my DJ like a year a half ago, so that definitely could've gone up.

We paid $600 for a DJ and MC for 6 hours.  The other place we looked was a little cheaper.  Our DJ is our of Battle Creek, for reference.

We are paying about $800 for Wedding and reception music, a total of about 6 1/2 hours, this is including lights and the DJ works as the MC.

I *think* ours was $700 for unlimited hours.  I can't quite remember the details of the contract.

Has anyone had an afternoon reception? I'm looking at an 11 a.m. ceremony with reception until about 4 p.m. Does that affect DJ costs?
