Statistics show that Mobile DJs carry 75 to 80% of
the responsibilities at the average wedding reception. Many couples
attribute 80 to 90% of the success of their reception to their DJ.
Yet only 5% (or less) of the total budget is spent on entertainment
in many cases.
On the other hand, most couples spare no expense on
the food, making it the largest expense in the budget. Studies show
that many will spend more on a vegetable platter than they are
willing to spend on a professional mobile DJ. Ironically, most of
the vegetable platter gets thrown out.
No price (high, low or average) is a good
price if you don't get the quality entertainment and service you
need. With this in mind, think about what percent of your
event's budget should be devoted to hiring professional
entertainment that will guarantee the success of your event.
As you look at different entertainment companies,
compare them on the basis of the service they offer you. Prepare a
list of questions (we suggest Questions To Ask Your DJ Before Signing a
Contract) to ask EVERY company and record their answers.
Use the answers to rule out the companies you don't want to work
with, and rank the remaining companies based on their answers. Call
the references from the remaining companies. Use those conversations
to further reduce your list. If/when you get down to a short list of
a few companies that you would be EQUALLY happy to hire based on
their answers and references, that is when price can be useful
for further ranking.
It costs a lot of money to form and run a quality
professional DJ service. Money must be spent on building and
maintaining a diverse music library (so requests from you and
your guests can be honored), purchasing and maintaining quality
professional equipment (that looks and sounds good and works
reliably at every event), insurance, advertising, accounting,
etc. The time the DJ service spends working with you to plan and
customize your event also costs money.
Our prices cover more than just playing music. All
of our entertainment packages include a planning consultation (to
work with you to customize your event). All of our package
prices cover normal setup and breakdown time (which does NOT
count towards the entertainment hours). Our DJ packages start
at 4 hours to cover these additional costs.
We are a professional entertainment service with
years of experience creating fun parties. Our prices reflect this.
If you carefully evaluate us you will find that we offer
reliability, experience, pleasing and cooperative personalities,
enthusiasm, professional equipment, an extensive music collection,
and a level of personal service that makes our prices an
excellent value.
