So last fall I did my first wedding ever, I wasn't super stoked on it and it was for a family friends in a small town, I felt very unprepared and since they're family friends I never set a price cause I didn't know what to charge. They ended up paying me $500 which was a shock and they told me that was pretty much the cheapest competition they found. I couldn't believe it, based on what I've seen from wedding djs I wouldn't pay anymore then $200 dollars, at least where I'm from (side note my cousin also paid around $1500 for her wedding dj).
Anyways the point is I realized I can do a much better job then the guys I've seen here. I was outraged when I heard how much my cousin paid because the guy was not djing. So I've decided to jump into that scene and actually do a damn good job and blow away the competition.
So getting more into this I feel like there is a lot of new ground to cover. Transportation costs, lighting, speaker setup. For those of you who do weddings is there standard lighting and speakers that you always use. Do you rent? Is it smarter to buy lights? I'll have more questions but for now I'm in class and also need to focus haha.
