I have researched 5 dj companies. I only want dj who have been to our venue, since it is unique. The final 2 include dj services for reception, live music for cocktail hour, lighting with floor wash and also up lighting. 1 company quoted me $2000 and the other $1925. Are these good prices The others researched were similar, however, my fiance seems to think a dj should be no more than 900....I do not want to skimp on what, I think makes or breaks a wedding.....MUSIC. Thanks

We're using Silver Sound and paying $650 for 5.5 hours and includes some lighting as well. I do think 2k is a lot for DJ. Good luck!

[QUOTE]There is nothing unique about your venue when it comes to a DJ. They set up where the manager tells them and they play music. Period.

[QUOTE]I totally disagree. I don't know what her venue is but my venue is complicated so I can relate. He has to set up outside for the ceremony, music for cocktail hour which is in several different rooms of a manion, dinner in another room, and dancing in a completely different room. I would definitely consider this unique and more complicated for the DJ. We're using Silver Sound and paying $650 for 5.5 hours and includes some lighting as well. I do think 2k is a lot for DJ.
