DJ Quotes - how much do they vary???
I'm looking for a DJ and MC for 6 hours, with a single steel drum player just for cocktail hour, minimal uplighting at the venue and a closed curtain photobooth. I'm getting quotes of $4k and up - seems really high! Any feedback or recommendations is appreciated.

RE:DJ Quotes - how much do they vary???
Depending on the time of year and timing of your reception, I think $4k is going to be around what this costs. Here's how I figure that:DJ Alone: $1000 for a reception
MC: Additional $500 - $1000
Photobooth: $1000, including the staffing - I tried last year to find a nice one for less than $750 and it just couldn't be done with something nice.
Musician: $500 (at least - it might just be an hour for you, but they might not be able to take another gig that night since they are taking yours)
Uplighting: depends on the venue, but this can definitely range $500 - $1000 or more!
