That's my average charge, so it looks like I'm pretty much on the mark!

Sounds about what Im charging within a 10 mile area very fair quotation for a wedding

[soundscapes]

thats an average price for the whole country. southern dj's and dj's around london will be able to charge much more than us northern jocks.

Noticed yet another piece in the Express 3 days later...'how to save money on a wedding?...average cost of DJ £400?...maybe a southern wedding??

[Tony Scott]

I wonder how big thier poll was.....bet they didn't talk to every Wedding DJ in the land. :D They didn't talk to me!. Probably some junior hack rang around 2 or 3 local London DJ's and took an average - very scientific!!!
Having said that with the extra's, early set-up, microphone for the speaches etc. I'm at about £250.
I know plenty of DJ's who do a resonable job for a lot less, £120 ish, and both customers and DJ's are happy with that.

we've had this discussion many times, it always comes out that the north charges a lot less, usually around the £150-250 mark for weddings and less again for b/days etc.

& yet every friday night the towns of the north are awash with folks :Censored: :guinness: out of their heads, the money is obviously there (yes I know things do cost less ooop north, but not that much)
