1. Cost for DJ

   

   Discussion by Mom2MPS · December 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› New Hampshire

   Hi, I am beginning a search for a DJ. It will be a Saturday afternoon wedding in June 2011. I have been reading some good reviews of various DJ's posted here so I have a great starting point. I want to be prepared for the Sticker shock to come or at least the average cost for a DJ. Thanks for any infor or advice you can…

   Our DJ is $1,080. We got a 10% discount for booking him early, and he just offered us a deal of knocking off $100 if we pay the remaining balance before the holidays, so in the end, it will have cost us a little under $1,000. Oh btw, we are going with Billy from Main Event DJ's. Hope that helps! Good luck!

   I'm on the higher end but the DJ was #1 on my list. So $2,800 for 6hrs

   We're using Joey Dion from Main Event DJ's and it's about 1900.00 because we're using him for both the ceremony and the reception.

   I just talked to Aaron Topfer and he quoted me $1000. I think that's a pretty good price considering he doesn't charge any overtime fees at all. He said he will stay as late as we want him to and not charge any extra. Also, he doesn't charge any travel fees, which is a big deal to me because I'm getting married waaaaaay up…

   I am using Dave Lynch for 5 1/2 hours I'm paying $950. His normal rate is $800 for 4 hours, he worked with my budget to keep it below $1000.

   We are using David Lynch also and we have him booked for 4 hours for $899 that is his standard rate (at least when we booked him) for a sat night wedding, we didn't ask for a discount or extra time, although now wish we did! haha.

   We're using Drew Rissler from Get Down Tonight Entertainment. $800 for five hours, which includes travel. He was one of the least expensive of those at his agency.

    mine is 450 but that is VERY low...the average cost is around 800-1100 for a 5-6 hour reception I think...at least from other quotes that I got :)
