Dale & Wendy did an amazing job for my daughter Kayla's surprise 20th birthday party. They arrived early to set up at the park where we were holding it and were extremely organized for an outside venue. Dale said it was the "smaller" setup, but the sound was great and the mix of music appealed to attendees from 2 years old up to 69. My daughter was so happy (and impressed I had a DJ). She and her friends had a great day and it's kind of hard to impress them at that age. It would not have been nearly as awesome a day without Custom Music Service with Dale and Wendy. We love them!!

Dan and I were extremely pleased with your service. You were very easy going and willing to listen to our preferences and the advice you offered was very much appreciated. You did everything that we asked...and more! Our reception was fun and our guests commented on how well you did, Dale, at keeping everyone enjoying themselves. And the line dances were a hit thanks to Wendy! We really had a great time, thank you so much!

Dale and wendy did an excellent job. Dale took our often confusing instructions and preferences and blended into an outstanding evening where the music perfectly matched the audience, the mood and the tempo of the evening. Wendy made sure the schedule was followed and got us all to the right spots at the right time. I really appreciate their flexability with all our last minute changes. I strongly recommend Dale and Wendy for your event - we will use them again.

This was Dale's third wedding in our family, and we all have different tastes in music and every reception Dale added his uniqueness to make it special. I would highly recommend Dale and Wendy for any special event in your life. They will help make it a day to never forget.

Even when we started off 15-20 minutes behind schedule due to our ceremony and photo taking, Dale still made sure everything went nice and smooth while we had a blast. We're still getting comments from friends and family on how awesome the DJ was, mostly from those we'd least expect! We both highly recommend Dale for any event you have. He's so easy to work with and will certainly give you a first class event! Sean and Renee

We could not have been more pleased with the DJ services provided by Dale and his lovely wife. He did a fine job of mixing up the music. His arrangements were quite unique and he was very attentive to our requests. I have used many DJ's over the years and Dale Bryan is by far the best DJ I have ever had. I would defintely recommend him and we will most definitely be calling on him again in the future.

My husband and I got married this weekend and were so fortunate to have Dale as our DJ for the reception. From the first day I spoke to him on the telephone I was impressed with his level of organization, helpful tips, and cordiality. Dale went above and beyond his call of duty as DJ with his helpful e-mails and reminders. Many of his suggestions were helpful in planning our entire wedding and reception. As bride and groom, our level of stress was at an all-time high by the time we arrived at our reception. Wendy (Dale's wife) met us at the door of our reception and literally walked us through the entire process from beginning to end. I was delighted to look around the room and see toes tapping, people singing, dancing on the dance floor, and even watched people dancing in the buffet line. I know now that a DJ can certainly make or break a reception. Dale and Wendy did an outstanding job of making our reception more memorable and relaxing. What they did for us was worth FAR more than we spent. I would HIGHLY recommend him in the future to anyone planning any kind of event! Dale and Wendy....thank you a million for helping to make our day even more special than it already was!!

Dale & Wendy did a fabulous job. This is the second year that we have used the Custom Music Service. Last year was very good, but this year was even better. Even though we had only around 80 people in attendance, at least 80% of the time the dance floor was full. We do door prizes and raffles, and Wendy and Dale helped us announce them with flair. They readily accepted all requests, played them immediately. The music selection is so complete that even our most hard to please residents were happy with the performance. We have booked again next year. I have had several phone calls today, the 1st of Jan. , congratulating us on such a great party, and asking for information on Custom Music. I urge anyone who has events that they want to be successfull, use Custom Music Service, and it is a success. Mopsy

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.
