FACTS ABOUT BAR
MITZVAH DJ ENTERTAINMENT PRICING
First ask yourself, how important is your childs Bar Mitzvah or your
Wedding?
This is the impact the Disc Jockeys services will have on the overall
success or failure of your special event.
In post-event surveys, clients stated that the contribution Disc Jockey
services made towards the overall success of their special event was
85%! Whether it's a Wedding Reception, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, Corporate Event,
or a Private Party, its success or failure depends upon the quality
of services you receive from your Disc Jockey. These are entertainment
driven events. Even though food, photos, and decor are important
It is not the food
It is not the photos
nor is it the decor
that determines the overall success of your event! The DJ entertainer
is the difference between, "its just another social gathering I'm
obligated to go to" OR, you and your guests taking away magical
memories of your celebration that will be etched in your minds for a
lifetime.
In South Florida, the average per person cost for a vegetable platter
is $7.50 per person. Multiply that times an average event of 150 people
and that totals $1125. Is the success of your event worth more than
what you would pay for a veggie platter?
Why do most Disc Jockey's charge under $500 for their services?
- They don't offer all of the services a true professional disc jockey
should. This means, home stereo equipment, a limited music library,
no back-up equipment, little or no advance planning and little or
no coordination, which can lead to major problems for a Wedding Reception,
Corporate Event, Private Party, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or for that matter,
any special event.
- Most "DJ's" have absolutely no training. They figure if
they can play a CD, and they can run what is probably one of the biggest
parties/special event you have ever given, or one of the most important
days of your life, YOUR WEDDING . Few DJ's realize that the success
or failure of your event lies completely in their hands.
- The DJ industry is full of people who DJ part time for extra money.
They focus on their real job during the week and think all they have
to do is show up and play some music and they've done their job. Their
focus is not on you or your special event, and if they mess up, or
at best, give their typical "average DJ" performance, what
do they have to lose?
- Many charge low rates in order to get every job that comes their
way, then they may even sub-contract out your event to part timers
whose experience and quality may be even worse. There is no consistency
of quality you can depend on.
- The current national average spent on a wedding is $20,000; for
the Miami area, the average is about $25,000. With the Disc Jockey
being responsible for 85% of the success of your reception, doesn't
it make sense that a truly professional Disc Jockey, is not only worth
more than a veggie platter, but would also charge more? A good DJ
is worth more than some carrots and celery.
- The bottom line is this
If you are paying less than $500 for
your Disc Jockey you are taking a mighty big chance that you will
get a DJ who is not a true professional, and/or the possibility that
your special event will be contracted out to someone who's even less
qualified than the person you hired.
- If your special event is a Wedding Reception, Corporate Event,
Private Party, or Bar/Bat Mitzvah your concerns and questions about
the DJ you hire, should go far above just the music. It takes training,
experience, and expertise, to coordinate & sequence the special
events, program & mix the music, and .... entertain your guests.
It takes experience to lead your event with just the right finesse.
Your investment in entertainment and coordination is the most crucial
one in regard to the success of your event. If magical memories are
what you are looking for
. hire the best DJ entertainer you
can afford.
