Professional Entertainment isn’t expensive… It’s Priceless!
How Much Do You Charge? We have a wide range of prices, and each price is specific to the type of entertainment package we will design for you. It is best to meet with us to determine if we are a good match and what package would be best to suit your needs, then we can give you an exact quote at that time.
How Much Should I Budget For My DJ? You will hear from many vendors that you shouldn’t skimp on their services, but it couldn’t be more true in the case of Entertainment. Considering that your DJ / MC Entertainment will bear the responsibility of over 80% of the success of your celebration, you can see why choosing a FULL-TIME PROFESSIONAL DJ is the wisest choice. Your event already looks like a million bucks, so don’t cut corners on the most important element that will make your celebration an unforgettable and fun experience. Professional rates for DJ Entertainment range from around $600 – $2,500, with the average professional rate being around $1,200. There are unexperienced and part-time DJ’s that may charge less, but when you have a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, do you really want to take chances?
Will You Hold My Date? In the DJ industry, our dates are our “inventory” and therefore cannot be held without a contract and retainer. Even if you need time to decide which package suits you, simply call to request a retainer contract. A retainer of 50% will hold your date. The most important detail is that you secure your date with us. Then, we can help you design a package right for you. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express or check for retainer payment.
