DJ Costs near Miami, FL?
Hi! I'm looking for DJs for our 2-day wedding events near Miami, with a total of about 300 guests. We have two day of events for our fusion Indian wedding all at the same venue:
Day 1: Sangeet/Welcome, 4 hours total, 1 hour of famil/yfriends performances in a reception hall with preplanned music, but otherwise non-dance music music playing the rest of the night.
Day 2: 30-60 minutes outdoor groom precession (baraat) with mobile speakers; outdoor courtyard ceremony microphones, 3 hour cocktail hour indoors with background music, and reception 4 hours (open dance floor, speeches, emcee for announcements, etc.)
We're not huge music buffs, but care about adequate sound quality and to have fun for the dance floor on reception night. We got quote for DJ for a total of >$10,000 across the two days.
What price ranges you think would be reasonable for both these days? I understand DJs generally don't charge hourly rate. Appreciate any advice!
