Description
We are GUARANTEED!
We are dependable because we are designed to be that way. We set up early and we start on time. We are so confident that we give you an "On Time Guarantee". If we are even 20 minutes late, the service is ½ price!
We set up early
Instead of setting up our equipment half an hour before our scheduled start time (like many DJ companies), we set up our equipment BEFORE YOUR GUESTS ARRIVE.
We LOOK Good!
We dress well. Upon request we will wear tuxedos or whatever else you request us to wear! Limitations
The TIP/Gratuity question...
We do not put out a "tip jar", nor do we solicit tips from your guests. We are paid for our services, and at the end of the night, if you feel we performed in an outstanding way, any gratuity is at your sole discretion.
Back-up equipment and DJs
We have back-up equipment and DJs to ensure that we are there for you. Since we began in 1985 we have encountered everything from car accidents to transmission breakdowns, amplifier and mixer failures, sickness and broken bones. Because we set up early and have emergency back-up equipment and DJs, NOTHING has kept us from performing at our scheduled event!
We use professional music sound equipment.
No home-made speaker cabinets here... We use all the best name brands in professional DJ equipment. Names like Peavey, Pioneer, Audio Technica, Denon, JBL, Technics, Sony, Numark, PowerBase. The equipment is well balanced for a clean wonderful sound at all volume levels. We use Vinyl & Compact Discs (CD) for the clearest and best sound possible.
We play the widest variety of music.
We carry music for Grandma & Grandpa all the way down to the little grandchildren. We have a good variety of new and old, fast and slow music, that you may request for your playlist. Whether you like Big Bands, 50's & 60's, Rock n' Roll, Disco, Rap, Dance, Hip Hop, Techno, Salsa, Cumbia, Banda, Tejeno or beyond, we have what it takes to keep your party moving!
We Travel!
We serve the San Jose Bay Area with no travel charges, but we will travel anywhere! Even though we are Sacramento Valley based, we have performed in several different areas. Places like West Sacramento, Folsom, Stockton, Modesto and many more are on our list. Of course, travel charges may apply, you can take our high quality show anywhere you need it!

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.
