Can't find the right Dj-price?

Depends on your area I believe.

I'm in GA and we are paying $500-$700 bucks for ceremony and reception...

It depends on your location. I am in north NJ, and my preferred DJ's are **** (they don't do the party favor thing.....).

I'm in the Los Angeles area and paid $4,000 for ours (8 hours). It's definitely pricey but I wanted to hire someone that will keep the party going.

Totally depends on your area. We are paying $1000 for our 6 hour reception

I'm paying $700 for ceremony and reception. That is the most basic package. The one guy I really really liked and would have made it a party, wanted to charge me $3000. I couldn't justify that amount, plus food for him, plus tip, but I wish I had the money because he was awesome. He would have sang at my ceremony. :/

I'm paying $675 for less time but in a cheap-ish area.

My DJ in the Chicago suburbs is about 1K for the entire day.

The price will vary a lot by your local market, quality of the vendor, hours of coverage, and services provided!

I'm in TX and our DJ's normal price is $995 but they were running a special this month for $795 for 5 hours and that includes uplighting and a custom monogram.

Im paying 900 for the ceremony and reception. But normally he charges $1050. Depends where you live. Im in Oregon.

I'm in California north of LA and we are paying $780 for 6 hours. Includes ceremony and reception and uplighting

I am paying $1450 for 5.5 hours. This includes uplighting. DC area.

You're in Queens/Brooklyn? Yep, sounds about right. My DJ is $2300 - that's his most expensive package though. If you really like the DJ you found, skip the favors - they're not necessary. Maybe that will bring the cost down.

My DJ is Spynfo if you want to look him up. BTL DJs were another amazing company we met with. Friends of ours used him, and they said he was fantastic. His packages started at $1400.

Ours in Tahoe is $2000; this includes ceremony and reception.

I'm in NYC and we're paying $2k. The company we chose has DJs who charge less, but we really liked the particular person we hired.

Mine is $1000 in Seattle for 4 hours.

I'm in TX. I'm paying $995. That's includes 15 hours. (Our venue does the rehearsal the morning of the wedding so the DJ is there for it!) uplighting and a monogram!

I am blessed with a friend that will dj. He doesn't have to keep the party going just the music. We are having a mid day in the park wedding. I am thinking that if people want to party have an after party at a bar near by but most invites are past the drinking crazy party stage and will be happy to just relax in there rooms at the hotel.

Mine is 1500 for 6 hours. Location location location. I say set your budget and find the best person (based on reviews) in that budget

ETA: this includes lighting
