I paid 1700 for my Dj for our reception only. I'm from Northern California. He included the photobooth though in that price. (3 hours)

Boy do I live in the wrong part of the country. Most DJs here (central NJ) run around $2k-$3k. We found one for $1500. This is for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception (5.5 hours).

Ours is $850 for 7 hours plus up-lighting. This includes two different set ups (for the reception room and cocktail space). I'm in Tampa, FL. But we got a law enforcement discount so it normally would have been around 1k.

We used Complete Events (They have a MN location...our friends in MN used them too) and it was $800 for 5 hours. There is a discount if you book multiple things through them (uplighting, DJ, photo booth, photography, videography).

I'm in No. California (SF Bay Area), and we are paying $2500, for DJ for ceremony and reception (7 hours), uplighting and photo booth. It's a good price for the area.

Ours were about $1500 (and up) depending on what lighting you wanted. Many of them do include photo booths as part of their packages though.
