videographer- average cost?

Just wanted to get your opinion on this before I sign my contract. What's the average cost for a videographer? The videographer that I selected is going to cost $2,000 for 6 hours. The package includes travel, HD, pre-ceremony, trailer, credits, 2 blu-ray dvds, 5 regular dvds... Is it the average cost? Or am I paying way more than others?

    i think its average for what you are getting - ours is 1700 for about the same.....just make sure they are good at what they do! my sister jsut got hers back from her July wedding and its okay, but not worth what she paid :(

    I just spent the last two weeks contacting videographers and getting bids.. I am finding a TON that are hugely expensive (to me, at least), in the $4000 - $8000 range.  The ONLY one I found to be less is the one we are going with - just so happens they have just the style I am looking for, luckily! Our total with a few extra hours is about $2400.

    There are some VERY expensive ones out there. Ours is $2100 for everything. I found that to be very reasonable after getting some quotes as high as $7000.
