Disc jockeys tend to be a
less-expensive alternative to live bands. Some disc jockeys
will also act as Master of Ceremonies and announce all the events
taking place at the reception. Disc Jockey packages vary
greatly depending on services (lighting, props, etc.), experience,
and area. DJ packages begin at $500. Providence
DJs and other large cities generally begin at $800.

You should hire a DJ at least six to twelve
months in advance. Set up an appointment to see them perform live. A disc jockey
with a good personality will get your guests up and dancing and participating in events
such as the bouquet and garter toss. You want a disc jockey that will make your
reception more enjoyable and memorable.
