About Our Rates
Disc Jockey, Karaoke and Entertainment rates vary based on talent, experience and ability of the people who you hire for your event. In addition, equipment needed,
music needed, location, the date of your event, the day of the week of your event, the number of hours, and any options you require will effect the final price.
Requesting specific entertainers may also effect the pricing of your event. Our interactive website will provide you with quotes which reflect most but not all of the
choices available. If you have any special need or request please feel free to call us for a personalized quote.
The following are general guidelines that you can use to help plan your event and stay within your budget.
- Your package price is based on averaging similar events in your area then adding the cost of any options you require.
- Rates for the DJ industry vary greatly. The best price is not always the best deal, especially if you are planning a wedding. As a matter of fact, surveys conclude that
nearly 100% of brides would have spent more money on their entertainment and made it their #1 priority in hindsight. - A full-service disc jockey company will normally invest 12 to 30 hours to your special event but it may appear that you are only paying for "4 hours". Consultations,
music purchasing & editing,preparation, set-up and tear-down, education and other business related endeavors add up to the overall success of your special occasion. - The date will certainly effect the overall price of your event. Typically, April- October and December are Peak months. By scheduling your event on an Off Peak month
you can save you 20-25% on your overall price. Also most events are booked on the weekend therefore they cost the most. Not counting Holidays, you can usually
save on booking your event on Mondays - Thursdays. In addition morning, early afternoon weekend events and some Fridays can generally save you money. - There are three types of options that will effect your final rate. The first is obvious. Any party supplies, props, or other services that the DJ offers but is not included in
the base rate (such as a special package that includes party supplies). Second, additional costs may be added if you require services such as a light show, karaoke,
interactive games requiring props or prizes or a second system generally required to have music in two areas such as a ceremony or a cocktail hour held in a separate
room. - The experience, skill, DJ type, access to parking, access to the room itself, number of entertainers such as dancers, singers etc., will also effect you final rate.

We strongly recommend that you ask he following questions when considering a particular Disc Jockey...
- Are you insured? Can you supply me with proof of liability?
- Many responsible business owners carry liability insurance to protect their businesses and the consumer. Many locations require proof of liability insurance. Ask
for proof of liability insurance. Disc Jockey's receive a Certificate of Liability which can be used as proof.
- Will you be willing to play requests and discuss music ahead of time?
- A versatile Disc Jockey is willing to listen to your suggestions, give you feedback and play from your desired song list. A professional Disc Jockey will also accept the
fact you may not want certain songs played. A professional Disc Jockey cannot know everything about your musical preferences and entertainment needs without
communication.
- Do you use Professional Equipment?
- Ask whether your prospective Disc Jockey works with professional audio equipment. If you are not sure, ask for their equipment list and check with a local music
dealer or the A.D.J.A. to verify they are using professional grade sound gear. Remember that professional gear does not guarantee an entertainer's talent or service
level, but is simply a tool for building an exceptional event.
- Do you provide backup equipment at my event?
- Although equipment failure is rare, do you really want your special occasion ruined because your Disc Jockey did not come prepared? It is also important to know if
your Disc Jockey has a back-up plan in case of illness or an accident. A member of the A.D.J.A.has many resources available to them in case of an emergency. You
may also reach their Hotline Number to get a Disc Jockey when you have an emergency. The toll-free number is 888-723-5776. Booking a reliable Disc Jockey is a
very important decision for the success of your party. Selecting a Disc Jockey who is an active member of the American Disc Jockey Association will provide you
with the confidence that you have selected a trained professional. A.D.J.A. members are more likely to be involved with other Disc Jockey's who can help them out
with an unexpected situation.
- Does the Disc Jockey know the proper etiquette for your type of party?
- A professional Disc Jockey will assist you with the planning of your special day. Most professional entertainers will coordinate, emcee and provide the music that you
desire. Ask if they have experience with your type of event.
- How much time does your Disc Jockey need for a proper set-up?
- Punctuality is a necessity. Most Disc Jockey's arrive at least one hour prior to the start time you've given them. Your entertainer should ideally be setup and in-place
before your first guest walks through the door.
- Does the Disc Jockey provide you with a written contract?
- It is extremely important to have your booking confirmed in writing. Ask for a written agreement, especially if you are paying an initial retainer. The standard initial
payment for entertainment services is 50%. If you are expecting a specific entertainer, make sure you get it in writing as well.
- Will the Disc Jockey and the staff be suitably dressed for our occasion?
- Specify the type of apparel that your Disc Jockey is expected to wear for your occasion. Formal attire or coat & tie are the most popular forms of attire. If you are
having a "themed" event, make sure your entertainer is informed.
- Does The Disc Jockey Service belong to any professional organization or trade group?
- Although belonging to an organization or trade group does not guarantee the talent or professionalism of a disc jockey, it may indicate the companies willingness to
network, learn and grow. Disc jockeys can learn through local chapter meetings, national DJ conventions and seminars geared toward the entertainment professional.

What is a Great Disc Jockey Really Worth?
A Professional DJ provides the positive catalyst for your party. Skillfully selected and played music will add the important "feel good"
element that helps everyone interact, rekindle relationships faded by time away and form new friendships. Music is relaxing, exciting,
romantic, and inspirational. Dancing keeps everyone at your event longer and contributes greatly to the enjoyment of your guests. Your
choice of entertainer is an insurance policy against bad memories of a disappointing occasion. Unfortunately, the DJ is often the last
service chosen, after much of the budget is spent on a venue, food and clothing. This “backward planning” often forces Brides and
Party Planners to shop for the cheapest possible price. Many people will pay far more for a cake, flowers, or a veggie platter than they
will for the most crucial ingredient of a party, the entertainment. The DJ you select will be taking on the responsibility of over 80% of
the success of your party and often gets paid less than 3% of the total budget (based on the average $25,000.00 Wedding, 3% would
equal $750.00), yet if the DJ is a poor performer or worse, doesn't show up, your entire investment is wasted, not just that 3%.Your
choice of entertainer can also be thought of as a commodity purchased to “feed” each of your guests. If your dinner buffet costs
conservatively just $25.00 per person (with 250 people), you’ll pay $6,250.00 plus tax, and rest assured, the Caterer will add a gratuity
(sometimes 18%-25%), so before long you're at $7,800.00! Think about the last wedding you attended. Do you remember what was
served?. Most people do not, however they do remember if they had a good time...
