What Drives the Price
- Length of coverage — ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing can run five to seven hours.
- Ceremony audio — a separate ceremony area means a second sound system, wireless mics, and a lavalier for the officiant.
- Guest count and venue size — larger receptions need more speakers and coverage.
- Lighting and add-ons — uplighting, monogram projection, and photo booths.
- Travel and setup — Folsom is within our regular service area.
What's Included in a Professional Package
A full DJ and MC package typically covers reception sound, a wireless mic for toasts, a planning consultation and music form, timeline review, grand-entrance and special-dance coordination, cocktail/dinner/dance music, basic lighting, and setup and breakdown.
Why Booking Early Matters
A DJ can only take one wedding per date. Lock your venue, then your photographer and DJ, 9 to 12 months out — especially for spring and fall Saturdays. Read what our couples say.
