What is the average price for a DJ?

I am paying $900 for 7 hours.

it includes all of his equipment, 2 microphones, lighting and speakers for our ceremony location.

Edit: I am in the Fresno, CA area. However, I have also been quoted around $1,400 for less than what my DJ is offering us.

All quotes I've seen so far (in philly/ny area) have been about $1600-$2000

Ive received quotes from $400 all through $3000.. It really depends on location, party size, time etc.

Ok so it would be for 4 hours (reception). We're located in Florida

This is going to vary wildly based on where you are located and exactly what services you are looking for. In my area it seemed to range from about $1,000 on the very low end to about $3,000 for a high end choice.

Paying $800. But have gotten quotes from $600 to $2000 for 4-5 hours.

I called around till i found something affordable for us..all prices ranged. We are paying 400 for 4 hours...but if I want an extra hour he'll charge another 100..but I'm happy with the price

A lot if you want a good one.

Los Angeles, 6 hours, I can't remember if it was $900 or $1000, but it was a steal in my opinion considering the vendor is highly recommended and most other vendors are $**** on average.

Ours is $1,000 in Knoxville TN for 5 hours

We're paying $1300 for 5 hours, dance floor lighting, and a lighted/animated monogram in PA. We received quotes from various DJs that were way lower and way higher...all depends what you're looking for. I think we found a good mix of quality and affordability.

I'm having a DW in FL. I am paying my guy 875 for the ceremony and reception. He's playing steel drums for the ceremony and cocktail hour as and then switching to DJ for the rest. ~5 hours total.

I'm in the Philly area ... I hired a South jersey DJ who I love !! He came in at 875 for 5 hours ...

Where are you located? I feel like that is going to give you a better idea regionally or based on city. We've gotten quotes from 1-3K in the Chicagoland area for about 5 hours.

We're paying $650 for 5 hours and he's the best DJ in the area. The price definitely depends on your location

Mine is $600 for 5 hours

I have one (N. IL) for 5 hrs plus ceremony for $425. I bet since its a Sunday Morning wedding you can negotiate a lower price since its off peak time/day.

I am in Florida as well, just recently found an amazing sax player while at dinner. His quote for playing sax for cocktail and dinner hour, then DJ for the rest of the event and uplighting was 1500.00

Ours is a little expensive at $2000, but they also include coordination services on top of DJ services, plus they had amazing reviews, so we decided it was worth the extra money. We're in Knoxville, TN.

1300 for mine
