The
average Wedding Budget in the USA for 2004 was $28,000. The graphs below illustrates where most of the Wedding
costs are. As you can see, the Disc Jockey only accounts
for 2% of the total budget but accounts for 75% of the responsibility.
Where does the money go?
The average Wedding
Budget only allows for 2% of the total money for the DJ.
Who does all the work?
A Professional DJ will
be at the Reception longer and have more responsibilities than
any of your other vendors. He is the person with the microphone
and in control.
Compare Cost
The cost of a Professional
DJ is a real bargain compared
the the price of a Vegetable Tray or Cake Cutting.
Most couples pay $25/hr/guest
for the Reception. Every time a guest leaves your Reception, you lose
money that's been paid for the full amount of time job.
The
music is the most important part of the Reception.
Who are you going to trust it too?
Some couples will pay
more for a Vegetable Tray or Cake Cutting than they pay
for their DJ and then
wonder why many guests did not stay for a large part of
the Reception. Your guests
may not remember the food, the flowers, the wine
and any will never see
the pictures. But they will
remember the good (or bad)
time they had. The Disc
Jockey is the person who can make or break the
Reception. Take as much
time and effort to select your DJ as you did in
selecting your Wedding
Dress. The DJ will have only one chance to do the
show right. There is
no second opportunity to do it over again. A
quality,
Professional can actually
SAVE YOU MONEY over the long run.
