"My wife and I did not take the task of selecting a DJ too lightly. It was important for us to have exceptional quality of service, professionalism etc, given the fact the DJ would set the mood for our entire reception. DJ Greg Young exceeded what we consider the highest of standards. Greg incorporated the latest in technology to allow for easy song selection prior to our wedding, an open ear should we have any concerns up to our wedding day and attention to detail. Our family dynamics may have thrown other DJ's, but Greg seamlessly incorporated special recognition into a evening of non-stop dancing. We interviewed about 5-6 other DJ's prior to selecting Greg, and from our perspective, he was in another league of professionalism and class. The other key attribute of Greg's services was his ability to read our guests, staying in tune to music likes of both an older and younger generation. We highly recommend Maine Event Entertainment and DJ Greg Young."

"Greg was a true professional from begining to end. He was quick to respond to emails and the online planner made things MUCH easier. Greg lets you "run the show" as far as setting the schedule for your event and selecting music etc. yet is quick to step in with advice and suggestions. His selection was perfect and he kept the dance floor busy all night.
All of my guests loved his personality and style - could not recommend him enough!"
- Kerri and Carlin
"Maine Event Entertainment was absolutely amazing. Greg helped me every step of the way. He was completely professional and kept everyone entertained the entire time. I can't even begin to say how many people commented on how perfect the music was. Even my parents (who always have something negative to say) said the music was perfect and that they wanted him to keep playing for another hour! I wouldn't recommend anyone else besides Greg to be your DJ."
- Ashley and Zach
"We heard after the reception that Greg was more nervous about doing this reception than he had any other that he had previously done. You would never have known it. We had a hawaiian-theme reception and Greg did a great job getting music for our theme for our dinner music. We have heard from many of our guest and the staff that this was one of the most fun receptions they have seen in a long time. Greg did an awesome job keeping our guest on the dance floor. We had many young children at our reception and they loved the Chicken Dance and everyone young and old enjoyed the Cha-Cha Slide. We really had a terrific day. Greg helped to make our reception a memorable event."

"Greg was an amazing DJ for our wedding on Peaks Island, ME. He was very professional, easy to talk to and work with. He was flexible, and accommodating. He worked with us to make our day amazing, and it was! Greg played wonderful music, he made sure everyone at all age levels was taken care of. People raved about the great music selection. He had fun oldies up to the latest hits, and he knew when to play them and how to keep people on the dance floor! That was so important to me, and he did it wonderfully. Most of all, whenever me or the groom had a request, he played it immediately which was a lot of fun, especially as the night went on! We would just call out a song and it would play next, it was like having our own dance club. We had a blast and didn't stop dancing all night! He also did a great job of announcing events like the special dances, cake cutting, etc. He made sure everyone knew what was happening, but not in an overpowering way. Very professional. He made everything flow very smoothly. We also had a few extra speeches, and some games we wanted to play and he was very helpful in accommodating that. We would definitely book Greg again for another event, and we very highly recommend his services!"

I would highly recommend Maine Event Entertainment to every bride and groom. We were very pleased with his services!"

Wedding DJ Costs
Wedding DJ pricing. So, how much does a wedding DJ cost?
You pretty much have most of the vendors chosen for your wedding, but now onto the wedding DJ pricing. So how much does a wedding DJ cost? You will see many different wedding DJ prices. So, keep these points in mind and you will find the right one.
Cheap Wedding DJ Prices These prices will usually be in the ranges of $75 per hour or less. Many of these wedding DJ’s are part-time hobbyists. They might have no idea how to coordinate and deliver what you want at your wedding. Just call these companies and you will notice a huge difference with their customer service skills. This might be a risky deal because they might show up with low grade equipment (if they even show up at all). There is a possibility that you can spend $200-$400 on your wedding DJ and be happy, but you have to understand what cheap wedding DJ prices really mean.
At 800DJ, our recommendation: Never hire a wedding DJ that costs less than your veggie tray
Average Wedding DJ Pricing So, your biggest criteria were your budget, and you went way overboard. So, instead you and your fiancé decided to hire someone to “Just Play Music.” Do you want the good news or bad news first? Okay straight to the good news, you just saved a couple of hundred bucks! Unfortunately, your decision might cost you much more down the road. This category of wedding DJ’s is priced all over the place. Usually many are larger wedding DJ companies that subcontract 15-25 wedding DJ’s every weekend. They improve their profit margin this way (more DJ’s=smaller profit margin) to support advertisements and overhead. There are many good DJ’s that are subcontracted by these companies. However, they might be so big that you might not even know who your wedding DJ will be until the week of.
I said earlier that there is a difference between a full-time company and part-time hobbyist. A full-time company depends on your referrals to generate future leads and business. This means that they are 110% dedicated to your wedding reception. The wedding DJ cost needs be looked at with their references. Ask for recent clients’ names, phone numbers, and e-mails. When I say recent I mean 6 months or less when available. Any reputable company will be able to give you this information.
At 800DJ, our recommendation: Let the buyer beware
Expensive Wedding DJ Prices These people may charge anywhere from $1500-$4500. There may be added value, such as an additional DJ/wedding coordinator, lighting, staging, dancers, or props. Other times, this price is determined by an owner with an over inflated ego. If their wedding DJ cost is expensive, then this does not mean that they have instant credibility. This price might be marked up since they do not have enough word of mouth referrals yet. You should not have to take out a second mortgage to pay for your wedding DJ cost.
At 800DJ, our recommendation: Get everything in writing, and question anything that might be overkill
How Much Does a Wedding DJ Cost So, how much does a wedding DJ cost? This depends on how comfortable you are with the lighting, experience, equipment, music, and fun options. You should try unique things because your wedding is far from ordinary. This does not mean you need to break the bank with wedding DJ prices, but see what options are really worth the cost. The typical wedding DJ cost can vary from $450-$1200, and be dependant upon the amount of time your event is and miles of travel for the DJ. In the short term the wedding DJ price will be a factor in your budget, and in the long term 80% of the success of your wedding is based on the entertainment. If you want to have a great time, you will interview multiple companies.
At 800DJ, our recommendation: Stay away from the cheapest, don’t go with the most expensive and do not hire anyone that is simply average.
To choose a DJ for your reception day requires a great amount of time and dedication. your reception DJ should have songs for all kinds of people to make them happy and enjoy your reception.
Sometimes it may be difficult to judge the mood of the audience as there are different types of people at every party. Keep the latest music with you and listen to all kinds of radio stations to get a wide range of music.
