Ahh yes ... the age-old question. Immediately after the "meaning of life." What is the "going rate" for a wedding DJ? And this is the trap people fall into ... "Going rate" - what is this? The "going rate" means ... the average price.
Okay, now we know that the average wedding DJ calculate. By the way, that came with the average rate? Her friend's cousin who got married four years ago? Your hairdresser, and intermediaries, which seem to remember their relativesMarriage?
Many variables play here. What is the answer?
It was decided to ask for help in the wedding magazines. After all, they should meet, because they are experts. Right?
Why are they experts? Well, because writing articles in the magazine, so you know. I'll tell you what I know ... know how to write articles. How many of these "experts" have actually worked a wedding? And when was the last time they visited a marriage? This ArticleWriter as "armchair warriors" known. Most have never been to the front of the fight. Most are not in the trenches working with brides and wedding professionals. Most may know only one aspect of a wedding photography, decorating, etc.
And now they will tell you how to plan and how much to spend and how to set priorities.
How much should a wedding DJ cost? How much should cost a wedding photographer? When you try to figure it out, be careful. Perhaps themarried person writing the article to a photographer or have had a bad experience with a wedding professional advice.
His first job as a bride or groom is to set priorities. What is important to you? Venue? Catering? Photography? Entertainment? Honeymoon?
Dad always said what? "You get what you pay for" right?
If you decide to have your reception is held in an elegant hotel, so expect to pay for it. You may have to cut other things like photography,Entertainment, flowers, etc. Or have you decided that you want the perfect wedding and all the precautions.
Great ... go for it. But not completely.
Do not go for an "A" Location and surround yourself with "B" and "C" companies. It 's like buying a Lexus with a Ford engine.
Too many brides blow their budget on location / catering and try to cut corners on the rest of their suppliers.
Priorities and with a stick! What a perfect wedding? Then expect to pay for this? They can not afford Really? Then marry you immediately feel free ... Duh!
