DJ recommendations?

We went with Tom Barrett.  They were $700 for 5 hours.  I looked for reviews, and didn't read a bad one about them; they have a 4.9/5 rating on Martha Stewart Weddings.

Obviously music and entertainment are important, don't get me wrong, but I could not justify spending $1500 on a DJ- I just couldn't do it.

I was impressed with D&J DJs in Bear.  We met with them and thought they really sounded like they know what they were doing.  alot of the DJ stuff depending on if you want 1 or 2 DJs, lighting (and how extensive), and your budget.  Also, do you want a really entertaining DJ or more lowkey?

i think we only want one DJ, not sure why we would need 2? i'm looking into uplighting, but i don't want props or anything like that...

MBR-Tom just sent me a quote for $795 for 5 hours...guess his prices went up!

Ms.BriarRose

Wait, no, that's the price.  I thought it was $700, but that's what we owe on the rest of the bill after the deposit.  Sorry   He still is one of the more affordable ones!

I have to say, the only DJ that I do NOT recommend is D&J, but since we didn't book with them I am not supposed to say why.  If you want to know why, I can PM you.

I used Joe Moser from DJ's Available in NJ.  They will travel, so don't worry that you can't use them because they are based out of NJ.  Joe was awesome!  I also got uplighting through them.  Both the DJ and lighting prices were very reasonable.  If you email them for more info, they will get right back to you.

We're also using Tom Barrett.  They've been great to work with so far.

I'm using Jenny Z Mobile DJ.  She's based out of Maryland, but she'll travel also... she's coming up to New Castle for mine!  FI's cousin was going to use her for his wedding over the weekend, but she was already booked.  She does book up pretty quickly, and she has a lot of extras (lights, wireless mic, stuff like that).  Her website is http://www.jennyzmobiledj.com if you want to check her out.
