How much does your DJ charge per hour?

I realize that it depends on the packages....but take your total cost and divide by 4 (or 5 if they're doing your cocktail hour - or 6 with viennese, etc...). That'll give you the cost per hour.

What does it include?

I'm curious b/c a friend is DJing our wedding, and I wonder if we got a good deal or not....
