Price vs Value
Price vs Value
You and your fiancé might be wondering, “How much should we expect to pay for a professional DJ?” It’s important to recognize that entertainment typically makes up about 6% to 8% of your total wedding budget, but the key is to prioritize value over price!
Every couple understands that entertainment plays a crucial role in the success of the event. You likely agree! While there are DJs who may charge less, it’s essential to ask yourself some critical questions:
- Is this DJ part of a one-person operation or merely pursuing it as a hobby?
- Do they utilize professional-grade equipment and have backup options available?
- What level of wedding experience do they possess?
- Are they licensed and insured?
- Are they active members of any professional organizations?
- Do they have backup DJs on hand for emergencies?
By asking these important questions and doing your research, you’ll find that those seemingly “bargain” DJs often lack both quality and value. In the wedding industry, it’s clear: you truly get what you pay for. Investing in a skilled professional will ensure your celebration is memorable and enjoyable for everyone.
Why We Don’t Post Our Prices:
While on the topic of pricing, here at DCViBEZ Entertainment, we do not believe in posting predetermined or pre-priced “packages”.
Pricing for wedding entertainment can vary wildly … like anything else you might purchase. Whether it’s a meal at a great restaurant, a new suit or dress, or even a new car, you’ll get what tastes right, looks great, and drives perfectly according to you.
We are a service business, and although many companies in our industry may have similarly titled options or offerings, if you do some homework, you soon will discover that there is a difference. The costs for all these services and experiences will vary from company to company and professional to professional, based on the quality, experience and the team/technology invested into each presentation.
Our basis is quite simple: You are nothing like the bride and groom we worked for last weekend, and won’t be the same as the ones we work for next weekend, so why would we quote you as if you were?
Your needs, your wishes and your vision are unique and one of a kind. For this reason, before we provide you with a quote, we would first appreciate the opportunity to meet with you for a complimentary, no obligation consultation at a location convenient to you).
During this meeting, the goal would be to learn as much about you and your idea of what a perfect wedding should be like. Of course, it will also be an opportunity for you to decide if we are really everything we say we are! After your approval, as well as the information you provide for us, we would be happy to provide you with a more accurate (and fair) quote, completely designed to fit your needs!
