Does anyone know of a cheaper DJ than Buckeye Entertainment?

I'm setting up a meeting with Byron for the next week or two and so far he is the cheapest DJ I have seen and appears to get FABULOUS reviews around here.  If I get a good feeling from Byron when I meet with him I am comfortable locking him in but I want to make sure I'm not overlooking someone who is still good but may be cheaper.

The DJ is not a priority for me.  We are having an afternoon wedding and while I want everyone to have fun I don't know if people will want to dance or not.  We want the DJ so we don't have to DIY the music and announcements.

Thanks!
April

    Your subject line cracked me up!   :-)

    So, you know there are Craiglist DJs right?  (I know this because a friend trying to book something last minute for a neighborhood party just said "have you ever looked at the crazy Craiglist bands and DJS?  ha ha)

    So - advertising on Craiglist does not make anyone bad or good - it simply makes them available, and I'm guessing  "cheaper than ..."

    Just proceed with caution.  You say DJ is not a priority, but, remember, this person will be planning with you, managing your do plays and don't plays, and also representing you and DH on the microphone. 

    Good luck!

    I would like to avoid a complete "craigslist dj".  While it is not a priority I do want a professional.  So far Buckeye Entertainment has been the least expensive company I have seen and it is under budget.  In a perfect world I could find a professional DJ for less than $400 but I know that is asking a lot.

    Are you still looking for a DJ? I have a recommendation but since the last post was in July I thought maybe you already found one to book with. Our DJ is $500 so if thats in your budget and you still want a referral let me know ...
