I will say however in the thread some of them have spent 450 on a dj and they have said you get what you pay for so thats refreshing!

[Dynamic Entertainment]

Theres some absolute corker statements being made on there...

like



I'm not looking forward to finding out our venues DJ cost. The one we were using equipment blew up and he can't afford new stuff- so we are desperate!!


You get what you pay for...and alot of them dont seem to realise that.

Scott and I are 'experts' on there, but we are there to help and assist, not tell brides they should be paying more.

I don't think you can 'put people right about prices' in much the same way that you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

Darren and Scott could stand there until the end of time telling and advising brides about prices, but some will see them as 'DJ's trying to justify higher prices', some will see them as 'A mouthpiece for the DJ industry' some will realise that they are talking sense and almost everyone will assume they have a vested interest in being the resident experts.

By remaining neutral and answering genuine questions and giving general advice (as opposed to telling people what they should pay and why they should pay it) they are far more likely to enhance the reputation of DJ's in general.

Having read the thread, it is encouraging that a few members of the public have said that 'you get what you pay for and mentioned sensible fees', it is those comments (in my opinion) that will carry far more weight with other brides than any comment a DJ can make.

I have to agree.

[simon1969]

Yes let's hope the word spreads then !!
Didn't think that they would be telling people to pay more, as it doesn't necessarily mean paying more = better quality of service.
Credit me with more grey matter than that!! :)
